Beyond the damage incurred by human beings that pervades to this day, the Chernobyl disaster wreaked havoc across the landscape.
The explosion at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant 38 years ago today marked a terrible tragedy in human history. The toxic clouds that spread over Soviet territory exposed approximately 8.4 million people to nuclear radiation.Beyond the damage incurred by human beings that pervades to this day, the Chernobyl disaster wreaked havoc across the landscape by causing extensive damage to crops, plants, and infrastructure.
Radioecologists have taken sites that required human evacuation, such as Chernobyl, as unique opportunities to study what happens when humans move out of these landscapes. Though the area saw an incredible loss — of humans — it stunned ecologists to find that wildlife took over. The absence of human beings triggered plant life to flourish and animal life to return, so Chernobyl appears more like a nature reserve today. And no one expected it.Radioactive levels may have decreased due to radioactive decay, but the risks to human beings remain permanent.
However, they can study these cases to deepen our knowledge. In a moving twist, life perseveres even in the most contaminated areas.
