Abstract: Nuclear Energy is the key solution for China to address its efforts on Climate change. However, the current nuclear energy technology also brings the corresponding high radioactive waste. How to dispose this kind of dangerous material in an appropriate way has become a critical issue for this country. This article attempts to analyse the current legal context of high radioactive waste disposal in China and explores the potential further improvement options concerning this topic.
