Chernobyl – Let The Facts Speak

    An illustrated report on Chernobyl yesterday and today, 30 April 2012 http://greensmps.org.au/sites/default/files/chernobylltfs_0.pdf

There are two compelling reasons why this tragedy must not be forgotten.  First, if we forget Chornobyl, we increase the risk of more such  technological and environmental disasters in the future. Second, more  than seven million of our fellow human beings do not have the luxury of forgetting.

They are still suffering, every day, as a result of what happened… Indeed,  the legacy of Chernobyl will be with us, and with our descendants, for  generations to come.”  – Kofi Annann, UN Secretary General April 2000  …..

This ‘Let the Facts Speak’ publication was produced by the office of Scott Ludlam, 
Australian Greens Senator for Western Australia to commemorate the 26th anniversary 
of the Chernobyl disaster, in April 2012. It is the second in a series of reports on the 
true face of the nuclear industry.
