Harm from Chernobyl over hyped

Washington Post:

The long-term health and environmental impacts of the 1986 accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine, while severe, were far less catastrophic than feared, according to a major new report by eight U.N. agencies.

The governments of Ukraine, Belarus and Russia, the three countries most affected by radioactive fallout from Chernobyl, should strive to end the "paralyzing fatalism" of tens of thousands of their citizens who wrongly believe they are still at risk of an early death, according to the study released Monday.

The anti nuclear power crowd has been very effective at frightening people with junk science. Some of the same people are frightening people with global warming junk science. What these people seem to really be afraid of is the free market. The global warming junkies solution is a control freaks dream of regulating every aspect of life on the flase premise that doing so will somehow "slow" the earths normal oscialation of warming and cooling,
