RE: Have you seen it? ☢️

in Ukraine on Steem26 days ago

I haven't seen this series, but I can still remember the Chernobyl nuclear disaster very well (well, we are ‘almost neighbours’ to Ukraine here). It was in 1986, almost 40 years ago. And even today, people still point out that you should be careful when eating mushrooms because of the radiation exposure caused by the disaster back then. But I think that's only the case in over-regulated Germany. The Ukrainian electrician (born in 1986) who fitted our solar system has never heard of this ‘warning’ in his life...

We're only asked not to pick and eat mushrooms in the radius 70 km from Chornobyl. But I think people still pick them. May be now it stopped cause a huge part of that area is mined by russian invaders.

70 km seems to me to be quite a small radius... Well, the main thing is that people still think about it a bit. Especially as you certainly have bigger problems now than (possibly) radioactive mushrooms... 😔
Many thanks for the report and the pictures of "The Real Tschornobyl".

Thank you so much!
You know, its like in Nagasaki: some people had died because of radiation, some people got cancer, but some received super strong immunity. 🙃

Hey, sorry for the totally unrelated question but what's the purpose of the spam-filter account? I created a new account to share only B&W works of mine and got 1% vote from it, it feels as some sort of tagging?
Have a great weekend!

Gonna answer in your post... ;-)

At least our Solar panels will not explode, if you get a chance you should watch this.

Yes, thanks for the recommendation: we watched the first two parts yesterday. Fascinating. But the best thing is that we kept coming back to Wiki in between and remembering 1986. Cool. Enough rambling - I've run out of time and have to watch the next episode... ;-)
