Greenpeace warns over safety of #Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant
International regulators are incapable of properly monitoring safety at the russian-occupied the nuclear power station, according to a critical dossier compiled by #Greenpeace that is being sent to western governments on Thursday.
They conclude the IAEA has too few inspectors at Europe’s biggest nuclear plant – four – and that there are too many restrictions placed on their access.

It will probably take Chenobyl v 2.0 before the world wakes up to this, assuming we survive that is
I was about 11/12 when it happened, so can't remember much other than there was some sort of radiation cloud being tracked heading across Europe, this was a major concern.

Chernobyl was a tremendous concern for locals, Chernobyl 2.0 would be similar, but with an evil occupation in place.
Further afield there was concern, but in the end it didn’t amount to much.
To be exact, there is/will continue to be an impact through cancer. As Joe Jackson said, “everything gives you cancer” and as a percentage of even just cancer deaths, the Chernobyl effect is truly minuscule.
