(13,985 posts)89. Holy shit....you mustv be jk right???
"Meanwhile, the Belarus national academy of sciences estimates 93,000 deaths so far and 270,000 cancers, and the Ukrainian national commission for radiation protection calculates 500,000 deaths so far."
'http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2010/jan/10/chernobyl-nuclear-deaths-cancers-dispute"
And this is what you said, in case you delete.
85. What evidence????
What evidence from Three Mile Island?
You do know that NOBODY was injured as a result of TMI don't you?
Do you realize how much Fukushima has been HYPED.
We don't expect that people will be dying as a result of Fukushima.
There were about 30 people killed as a result of Chernobyl.
So with ALL the nuclear power accidents; fewer people have been killed or injured than from an average airliner crash.
Do you think we should terminate all airline travel; it has a safety record MUCH WORSE than nuclear power.

Nope... I'm not saying that. Nor most of the rest of your imagined statements.
