Is that the message, or is the message that nature is more resilient than we thought?

Radiation is invisible. Sure, those pictures look great, but are those animals developing cancer? The life expectancy of those animals is less than 12 years under normal conditions. Maybe they can live out their lives before the accumulated radiation damage does them in. Or maybe their lives are cut short, and you can’t tell that from those pictures. A human, with a life expectancy of 75 years cannot live there without a very high chance of disease.

Radiation also effects chromosomes increasing the chances of genetic mutations that can then be passed through reproduction. Could see a sub species of 3 legged 2 headed Moose "evolve" or fish with 2 tails and 4 eyes, double hearts, 4 kidneys, 3 breasts.

not picking at you, but why do people say “the” Ukraine? Some places have The in front, some don't. The United States, The Netherlands, The Philippines, The Bahamas, etc. I was not The Originator.


Where’s the “s” in Ukraine though???

I don’t know, you’ve taken peoples’ wishes into account and everything. I think I may need to spend a bit more time pondering the subject to catch up to you.

The early attempts at remediation of the soil around Chernoybl used cannabis. It absorbs heavy metals rapidly through the roots and they harvested and incinerated it several times.

The Original Pot Leaf flag? yeah that was Regional Flag of that area dating way back. Napoleon tried to conquer the region for the hemp used in shipping.

The new cover only last 100 years, so we'll have an even bigger problem on our hands then. Removing the structure, disposal of the radioactive materials...ect


Seems like you could just build an enclosure surrounding the existing enclosure.

Mmmmm radioactive moose meat


There are places here in the US near national labs where during hunting season the govt sets up radiation checkpoints for harvested game.

Off the top of my head I recall about 2% are "hot"

This the best YouTube channel to check out for Chernobyl. He gives zero fricks, and loads up on vodka to give out to the few remaining villagers who never left
