At least the disaster is localized to a single terrible place. With coal and gas it undermines the integrity of the planet contributing to climate change.

- Kon5ole 4y agoNuclear disasters are not localized. Geographically the radioactive release travels large distances with the wind and causes severe radiation effects hundreds of miles away. Chernobyl was basically a prevented disaster (the worst we have seen but nowhere near a worst-case scenario) and the effects are still costing money to deal with today hundreds of miles from the site. https://vividmaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/cloud-of-radiation.jpg https://vividmaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/cloud-of-ra... But the main problem is that it's not localized in time. Chernobyl is a problem for several countries still to this day, and the actual site itself will continue to be a problem for generations to come.
