    Russian Gov’t Radio: “The number of victims has reached one million people today” — Consequences of Chernobyl meltdown are endless and uncontrollable

    26 years ago today Chernobyl disaster happened.

    Large sections of ground will never be available to mankind anymore.

    Whole regions in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus have become unfit for life, and the number of victims has reached one million people today.

    Add Fukushima to the equation, and see how good caretakers we are of this little planet, our only home.

    From the same article..

    and it is impossible to count the exact number of victims. Scientists are still arguing if the number of one million deaths is valid,
    Seems to me the article is quoting the Greenpeace figures and not the actual deaths that are based on statistical evidence.

    According to detailed studies that I have presented here the areas discussed are quite safe and quite habitable.
