🏛THIS DAY IN HISTORY🏛 On the 26th of April, 1986, a nuclear accident occurred at the No. 4 reactor in the #Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Soviet Ukraine. The disaster occurred as a result of the flawed design of the reactor and mishandling by operators. https://t.co/WqrGESWRRL

@RARohde @rahmstorf I’ll take carbon pollution over nuclear pollution (contamination) any day. There is nothing clean or safe about nuclear. The land’s contaminated by Chernobyl and Fukushima will be unsafe for generations?

Today is April 26, a day when Chernobyl NPP suffered a catastrophic meltdown. I reference Chernobyl a lot in my thesis, for it's on "usage on robotics in disasters". The main thing to take from Chernobyl story is that the event could've been avoided if there was safety culture.

International Chernobyl Disaster Remembrance Day in 2023

International Chernobyl Disaster Remembrance Day remembers the explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in 1986. A routine shut down was to be conducted however, due to structural errors with the reactor, a surge was created which resulted in one of the world’s largest chemical explosions.
