Maybe is because water in dams is safer than a radioactive cloud. With a dam you at least can run towards higher ground. Or because water in dams runs in predictable ways following gravity Or maybe is because 5 years after a dam disaster all had returned to normal, but 5 years after a nuclear disaster... nope, still is happening. In any case it seems that for some reason there is a wide consensus in the planet to tag dam accidents as safer than nuclear accidents
