Chernobyl disaster 30 years on: what do you remember?

2016-04-20 13:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Guardian: On 26 April 1986 one of the four reactors at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded. It was the biggest accident of its kind in history a human and environmental disaster that triggered a political storm that has lasted for decades. Acute radiation sickness killed 31 people in the first three months, but the leak was blamed for thousands of cancer cases that developed across swathes of Ukraine, Russia and Belarus, with figures on predicted deaths ranging from 4,000 to half a million. Tens...

Animals Rule Chernobyl 30 Years After Nuclear Disaster

National Geographic: Animals Rule Chernobyl 30 Years After Nuclear Disaster Three decades later, it's not certain how radiation is affecting wildlife-but it's clear that animals abound. The Przewalski's horse nearly went extinct, but in an effort to save the species it was introduced into the area around Chernobyl in 1998 and to other reserves worldwide.

Guardian: At first they thought it was just a fire, then the chickens started to turn black. When it comes to the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, everyone has a vivid detail that is snagged in the memory; the absurdities or the obscenities. It might be the local village that, once evacuated, was claimed by a mob of pigs. Or the way milk would turn to white powder whenever the residents of Pripyat (the town built a few hundred metres from the doomed power plant) would attempt to churn butter. Or the cat that refused...

Radiation deniers: pro-nuclear environmentalists and the Chernobyl death toll

2016-04-07 12:39:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Ecologist: Just as climate change deniers leap from scientific uncertainty over the precise impacts of greenhouse gas emissions to certainty of little or no impact at all, so 'pro-nuclear environmentalists' conflate uncertainty of the mortality arising from Chernobyl and other nuclear disasters to certainty of few if any deaths, writes Jim Green. Their position is equally indefensible. With few if any exceptions, self-styled pro-nuclear environmentalists peddle flapdoodle and tommyrot regarding the Chernobyl...
