Starting off with one of the less dangerous elements,
Plutonium is a rare and highly unstable substance
obtained
from experiments conducted on it's predecessor,
Uranium.
The most notable use of Plutonium is as a power
source
for power plants and bombs. Plutonium is
dangerous to
those in it's immediate area because it
constantly
emits radioactive waves which can cause
long-term
deformities and illness in those it is
exposed to.
However, due to the process of creating
it being
slow and the extreme government management,
there
is very little Plutonium in the world,
meaning that
despite being very radioactive,
Plutonium will rarely
pose a threat to the average person.
