Facts About the Nuclear Disaster In the early morning hours of April 26 1986 the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine (formerly part of the Soviet union) exploded creating
what has been described as the worst nuclear disaster the world has seen ever. Even after many years of scientific research and government investigation there are still many unanswered questions about the Chernobyl accident especially regarding the long-term health impacts that the massive radiation leak will have on those who were exposed.
which housed almost 50000 people in 1986 according to the World Nuclear Association. A smaller town Chornobyl was home to about 12000 residents.
and to moderate the reactivity of the nuclear core as the core heats up and produces more steam the increase in steam bubbles
or voids in the water reduces the reactivity in the nuclear core. This is an important safety feature found in most reactors built in the United states and other Western nations.
As the nuclear core heated and produced more steam bubbles the core became more reactive not less creating a positive-feedback loop that engineers refer to as a positive-void coefficient.
The day before the Chernobyl nuclear disaster plant operators were preparing for a onetime shutdown to perform routine maintenance on reactor number 4. In violation of safety regulations operators disabled plant equipment including the automatic shutdown
At 1: 23 a m. on April 26 when extremely hot nuclear fuel rods were lowered into cooling water an immense amount of steam was created
which because of the RBMK reactors'design flaws created more reactivity in the nuclear core of reactor number 4. The resultant power surge caused an immense explosion that detached the 1000-ton plate covering the reactor core releasing radiation
Twenty-eight of the workers at Chernobyl died in the four months following the accident according to the U s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) including some heroic workers who knew they were exposing themselves to deadly levels of radiation
But when radiation alarms began to go off at a nuclear plant in Sweden authorities were forced to reveal the full extent of the crisis. Within three months of the Chernobyl accident a total of 31 people died from radiation exposure or other direct
Despite the contamination of the site and the inherent risks in operating a reactor with serious design flaws the Chernobyl nuclear plant continued operation for many years until its last reactor was shut down in December of 2000.

and in our environment from nuclear meltdowns and nuclear power plants was discussed. The total amounts of deaths birth defects miscarriages heart attacks cancers etc. due to nuclear radiation is in the millions upon millions;
far surpassing any deaths that could be caused by any other energy. That is why nuclear energy is rightly known as the most dangerous energy in the world.

over unsuspecting populations. 2. Comparing radiation received from an airplane flight to exposure to nuclear radiation
These comparisons are made by pro-nuclear propagandists to try to minimize the dangers of nuclear radiation. 3. Nuclear radiation is highly dangerous
and there is NO SAFE DOSE of nuclear radiation. Dr. Romeo F. Quijano said this about nuclear radiation:
The small amount of radiation claimed to be safe by authorities added to our increasingly fragile environment will cause serious harm to the health of human beings and other living organisms all over the world.

Even the pro-nuclear World health organization says breast cancer and leukemia will increase after Fukushima and predicts a 70%increase thyroid cancer risk in females exposed to Fukushima radiation as infants. 11.
It's not just cancers and death that nuclear radiation causes. Dr. Wertelecki found teratomos conjoined twins mocrophthalmia NTD microcephaly horrible birth defects and a decrease in cognitive skills due to Chernobyl.
and health effects caused by nuclear radiation. Again I highly recommend everyone watch the speakers at the Fukushima Symposium to learn more. www. totalwebcasting. com/view/?
/id=hcfthe doctors at the Symposium have spent decades studying the effects of nuclear radiation and their grim analysis is in their presentations.
And nuclear radiation is not just affecting humans. Animals are showing signs of radiation exposure.
Man-made nuclear radiation is wreaking havoc on human genetics human health and our environment. NEW Gallup Poll:
and warped view on nuclear radiation is balance and perspective. Onihikage was right to call you out on your radiation junk science.
Your claim 3. Nuclear radiation is highly dangerous and there is NO SAFE DOSE of nuclear radiation is also rubbish.
Nuclear radiation is used daily to irradiate foods to prevent spoilage with no adverse health effect whatsoever.
In fact it saves lives by preventing deadly bacteria from forming. Nuclear radiation is used safely countless times every day in numerous ways in medical and diagnostic procedures on humans;
all of which results in the prolonging of life and improving the quality of life for millions of people each year.
The effects of nuclear radiation have been studied carefully for over 60 years and extremely conservative dosage limits set in place to protect the safety of people who work in environments where radiation exposure is commonplace.
The U s. Nuclear Regulatory Commission says Although radiation may cause cancer at high doses and high dose rates public health data do not absolutely establish the occurrence of cancer following exposure to low doses and dose rates âÂ#Âbelow about 10000 mrem (100 msv).
renewable>nuclear>fossil fuel ORRENEWABLE>fossil fuel>nucleardisregarding all money related issues here. But if money were to be put into this equation then most people would support a different one depending on how much of they are of each an environmentalist economist or politician.
and economists would lean toward either fossil fuel or nuclear depending on their viewpoints and info. However a politician would rather go for fossil fuel
or better yet renewable resources as they would want to avoid the somewhat untrue public opinion (Fukushima) on nuclear energy.
My own opinion is that renewable resources trump all but that nuclear would be a little better than fossil fuels.
and nuclear energy are true you do realize that most of that info is talking about decades old nuclear technology?
Nuclear energy is similar fossil fuels in the way of both safety and efficiency. Fossil fuel usage at its infancy was both dangerous and extremely wasteful.
It is just like that with nuclear energy. Chernobyl and Fukushima were examples of plants built
When they were designed nuclear energy was at its infancy. They were practically the prototypes the testing stations for nuclear energy
and even most of those wasteful dangerous first generation nuclear facilities are somewhat better than the most high tech fossil fuels.
Putting plants into use is extensive. Nuclear plants were built with technology research and designed decades ago.
Chernobyl and Fukushima built in the sixties and finished in the seventies used technology invented in the fifties!
The nuclear plants finished recently (within the past decade) were built with technology developed in the seventies and eighties.
and researching more into nuclear energy rather that quit because of two major accidents. Not saying that the Chinese are the smartest
if anything is to happen with nuclear stuff China might be in the news. People need to consider our world realities when thinking about alternate energies.
With nuclear some of you on here defending nuclear just want to act like Chernobyl and Fukushima are the whole of world nuclear contamination.
Whether it's the weapons and the nuke plants that create those isotopes or the ones that were built specifically for safer power generation
or the massive shame to humanity that storage is--it's the nuclear issue. No?
I don't know how disposal of nuclear waste is brought about but in one other story that was discussing future concepts of skyscrapers one was harnessing noise pollution to create energy another was using volcanos
