It has become a “paradise” for animals because all humans left.
Put it this way. Honey, leaving for work now, I think before I get to the office I'll stop by and get a chest xray.
Tuesday morning. Honey, off to work, love ya, on the way home I'll stop by the market and get a chest xray.
Wednesday morning...........and on and on and on.
Just because radioactive particulate emits low levels of gamma, beta or alpha rays, humans still should avoid needless exposure other than what is picked up naturally.
I think it's hilarious that the governments are reporting low risk all the while the folks scanning the population look like walking condoms.
A Polish friend of mine in convinced her brother died of cancer as a direct result of Chernobyl. Said he couldn’t be convinced to stay indoors when the plume went over his town.
“in fact”
Or at least from the what the lying Soviets told us
The Chernobyl meltdown also contaminated vast tracts of Ukraine, Belarus, Russia and northern Europe with radioactive cesium. “There are still limitations on the export of sheep from Cumbria, in the U.K., and reindeer from Scandinavia,” Hoffman said. Cesium also contaminated fish from Scandinavia’s northern lakes.
Cesium is absorbed by plants and works its way through the food chain, getting into meat and milk. Unlike radioactive iodine, which has a short half life, cesium lingers in the environment. “Radioactive iodine will be gone in a month,” Hoffman said. “Cesium’s going to be around for decades.”
they ALL contain Plutonium.
Every reactor on the planet contains Plutonium.
Plutonium, 24,000 years.
Over 100 Tons of Spent Radioactive Fuel Rods Are Uncovered, Unprotected and Melting Right Now. In addition, there over 80 tons tons of spent Plutonium Fuel Rod that are exposed to the air. Plutonium . . . Want to learn more ___ ?
