As I've probably mentioned before, I have been working on a research paper detailing the events that occurred in Chernobyl in 1986. This has led me to learn quite a few things about the disaster. Details learned include not only the physical and environmental impacts of the disaster itself, but also the social and political ramifications. Researching the various quarantines, evacuations, medical problems, etc proved to be quite interesting and eye opening. The cause of the disaster, being attributed mainly to human error, is especially terrifying. It goes to show the chilling reality of today's world where the search for energy can ultimately destroy populations.
Hopefully I will be able to mold this information into an informative and interesting narrative.
