On my way home tonight, I was listening to an ABC radio news report about the number of deaths caused by the Chernobyl incident, being in the vicinity of a million, according to a new report/study out of Europe.

Chernobyl is now part of Ukraine. The radiation fallout effected Ukraine, parts of Russia and Europe etc, as the cloud moved with the prevailing winds. Alternative views suggested, that it was more likely to have been about half that.

Mans capacity to deal with earthquakes and tsunami's is compromised by the nuclear power energy industry.

The current unfolding Japan situation is clear evidence, that until we have adequate control of the science of nuclear power, then it is little more than a theoretical science, until such time as it can be used safely.
