Living with Nuclear Disasters

Nuclear power plant accidents threaten the entire planet. From Russia to Japan, from Russia to Japan, from the USA to France, from the workers employed in the power plant after an accident to the people of the region and the citizens of that country and the countries in the nearby geography, as well as the consumers of far away countries who are forced to buy contaminated products, everyone is telling big lies. They are deprived of their right to keep information and even the most basic health rights. In order to evaluate all of these, you will read in this book how they were applied in the Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents, where the data became more clear with the passage of reasonable time. So much so that in a country like Japan, the first thing to do after the nuclear accident was not even the distribution of iodine tablets, and the consequences have already been very severe. So, did what happened in Chernobyl serve as a lesson to the Japanese, who are used to success in Fukishima and perhaps the most believers in technology in the world? The book traces this comparison and, on the other hand, questions the importance of the tendencies of those in power, the effectiveness of civil society, the organization of the medical community, the independence of scientists and the courage of journalists. We, especially in Turkey, now know very well that the line between treason and love of homeland is up to the choice of the government. The people who are likely to suffer the most from either accident somehow need reliable information and support, not cover-ups, not doctored reports, not nuclear lobby-funded research and false hopes. Moreover, the taxes of the citizens who suffered the most are being used to eliminate the effects of the entire accident that will last up to 300 years. The type of nuclear fallout, its half-life and its effects on plants, animals and the natural ecosystem in general are at a level that even those who think in a human-centered way cannot ignore, because most of them are consumed by humans as food or water. However, for those who are able to look at the world from a different perspective, it is also important how blue butterflies, whose lives are very short, are affected. In addition to shortening their lifespan and decreasing wing length, mutations in new generations are very worrying for the future. An ironic development is that, contrary to what the lobbyists who chanted the slogans "Life would stop without the energy we obtain from nuclear power" said, Japan, which closed down 17 nuclear power plants (total number of reactors 48) after the accident and is a country so addicted to technology and electricity, has since become a nuclear power plant. It lived without needing energy, and today it lives without nuclear energy, except for 2 reactors that have been restarted. One important element that all these accidents have taught us is that, just like global climate change, nuclear power plants concern more than the responsibility of the states in which they are located, that is, they concern everyone living on the planet. Therefore, no matter what country it is done in, all people who will be exposed to its negative effects tomorrow have the right to resist them.
