http://www.thebigwobble.org/2017/10/alaskas-new-state-of-art-airport.html

Quote: "About a year ago, Tununak opened a $19 million, state-of-the-art airport. But now, local airlines are refusing to fly there. The village's shifting permafrost is buckling the runway, and both Ravn Alaska and Grant Aviation say that it's too dangerous for pilots to land on it safely. According to Gordon Tester, Tununak's school principal, the airport has been effectively shut down since last Thursday. Community members weren't really told what was happening. 'We were calling the airlines [and] asking when the next plane was coming in,' Tester said. 'And they just said they're not landing until further notice. Well, then you have to ask, "well what is further notice?"' It was only then, said Tester, that Tununak residents discovered that Ravn and Grant had stopped flying to their village altogether."

2017-10-23 - US nuclear regulators underestimating the risk of radioactive material storage fires that could devastate the US:
http://strangesounds.org/2017/10/us-nuclear-regulators-risk-radioactive-material-storage-fires-usa.html

Note: All of these places will eventually degrade and release huge amounts of radiation. These facilities, and there are many, require significant amounts of energy and resources and manpower to maintain. At some point there won't be enough people left alive to do that. As soon as there are too few people left alive to deal with these places, radiation will spew all over the planet. Maybe we could proactively create robots to maintain these places after there are too few people alive to do it, but why bother? To save some weeds, bugs, rats, jellyfish, sea lice and bacteria from the radiation?
