Comment on Bill Gates-backed nuclear contender Terra Power aims to build dozens of UK reactors
Aux@lemmy.world 1 year agoDo you know why Chernobyl even happened? The reactors were designed and built by one ministry, but they were operated by a different ministry. And the first ministry did NOT share proper operational instructions, yet they knew and had internal documentation that such a shut down will result in a melt down. Workers at Chernobyl had no real clue what they were doing. It’s not a problem of nuclear power, it’s a problem of corruption and the power struggle of Soviet politics.

And all countries that run nuclear reactors these days are completely corruption free? Just look at Fukushima and the aftermath. And that’s one of the less corrupt countries of the world.
