Chernobyl 30 Years On-Fallout Zone or Enchanted Wildlife Sanctuary?

It's both and neither.

 

The fundamental microbial life in Chernobyl near pripyat is either dead or so retarded in its own fashion from the fallout that the forest isn't decaying like it should.  No decay means no loss of contaminated life via natural decomposition if I recall.  Which means that the worst of the fallout in the area has yet to be covered up

It's an ongoing experiment in the effects of fallout.

You aren't giving the credit it deserves.

 

Its an ongoing experiment. Yeah and 30 years have passed at it looks like a rainforest. Not the result the environmental fraudsters were predicting or want to acknowledge

It's crazy how much worse this disaster could of been had three people not risked their lives to go into the large reactor and open a valve:

That is waaay overblown

chernobyl was built on a flood plain. it floods every 100 years or so. i think the last flood was like 150 years ago. they say, when it floods again, radioactive material still there, will wash down the black sea to the balkans. millions more will die.

yeah yeah yeah. More scare stories. While the city turns into a wildlife refuge.

& 30 yrs has slipped by. We were all busy celebrating Expo, as that Hell unfolded, half a world away.

 

We see ourselves as being clever. Basically, with seemingly cheap energy, we created a century of meteoric-growth. To me, nuclear amounts to an incredibly risky, silly way to boil water. For countless engineers, scientists & skimming politicians, it represented "good business". Mistakes were made, & "it seemed a good idea, at the time!", may be inserted almost anywhere into the narrative.

 

Now the bills(true cost) start rolling in. With decades in between, cause/effect & culpability all get lost in the shuffle.

Nuclear is zero emissions and zero C02 emissions. 

 

Chernobyl was a worst case scenario and 30 years on, we lived. The main reason Japan's plant melted down was because of the moratorium on building new ones and on updating the old ones.So Japan was the environmentalists fault.

 

New designs with multiple failsafes will come to market eventually. The market will demand it

They are hiding the truth!!!

Here is some leaked footage from within the radiation zone.

I think the reason for japans "meltdown" was a mega earthquake

If the plant was allowed to be properly updated or replaced, it would have survived the earthquake.

Feel free to go there and frolic with the wildlife.  Report back with your findings.

Exactly.Plant a garden.....eat the fruits of his labours....raise own meat and eat it....breathe in the dust and air......wash in and drink the water.......over and under on life expectancy?

One thing Chernobyl does illustrate is nature's ability to survive man. We'll kill ourselves off long before we sterilize the planet. 

 

Also, what does it say about humanity that nature survives better in a radioactive waste than in proximity to people.

[clam linguine]

Same sort of thing happening in the Bikini Atoll where nuclear tests were done 60 years ago.
