Like... about half of the Gomel region of Belarus has almost no young people anymore. When the incompetence is sufficiently extreme, the outcomes are dire and felt by many. I want nuclear to become the energy of choice for the west, primarily because the alternatives would practically bankrupt even the richest regions of the U.S. (if you look at the relation between increased reliance on batteries, and the subsequent increased demand for higher daily/monthly/bimonthly minimum supply) if taken too seriously. However, downplaying Chernobyl in particular (considering how similar many plants either are, or seem to the public; and considering how near-soviet levels of incompetence can be seen regionally in the west today) is a bad play. The single incident is extremely dramatic, ruined many people's lives, and still costs a fortune to keep in check. While some of the response is exaggerated or driven by unfounded fears; the fact remains that people from widely varying cultures tend not to find the places that faced the aftermath of Chernobyl desirable or healthy places to live.
