Zombie reactors in Ukraine

Cu ochii pe reactoarele de la Cernavodă

April 29, 2016

Cu cele două reactoare nucleare ale sale, România nu poate sta departe de controversele legate de explozia de la Cernobîl. Mii de români au suferit din cauza radiaţiilor de acum 30 de ani. Alţii se tem de un posibil nou accident. Autorităţile spun totuşi că în ţara noastră accidentele nucleare sunt imposibile. Pe plan internaţional, terorismul este văzut ca principala ameninţare pentru o centrală atomică, iar în România s-au făcut doar calcule teoretice privind rezistenţa reactoarelor de la Cernavodă.


Die Ukraine baut auf Atomkraft

April 27, 2016

Immer noch sterben Menschen in der Ukraine, aber auch den Nachbarstaaten an den Folgen der Havarie in Tschernobyl. Teile der Ukraine und Weißrusslands bleiben nach wie vor kontaminiert. Die Regierung in Kiew setzt aber trotzdem auf Atomkraft – aus Bequemlichkeit, kritisieren die Experten. 15 Reaktoren gibt es insgesamt in der Ukraine. Sie liefern die Hälfte der Elektrizität des osteuropäischen Landes. Für die ältesten Reaktoren, gebaut noch von den Sowjets, planen die ukrainischen Machthaber die Laufzeitverlängerungen. Die Umweltschützer schlagen Alarm.


Атом и уголь устарели, будущее за возобновляемой энергией, — эксперт НЭЦУ

April 26, 2016

Эксперт НЭЦУ Алексей Пасюк считает, что приоритетным вопросом в области энергетики Украины является потребление и энергоэффективность. В 30-ую годовщину аварии на ЧАЭС говорим о будущем энергетики в Украине с руководителем топливно-энергетического направления Национального экологического центра Украины Алексеем Пасюком. Ольга Веснянка: Является ли уголь альтернативой атомной энергетике?


Le conseguenze dell’atomo

April 26, 2016

Il 26 aprile del 1986, nel corso di un esperimento, si registrò un’esplosione al reattore numero 4 della centrale di Chernobyl. Una quantità enorme di sostanze tossiche contaminò l’ambiente.


Spotlight: Ukraine sees no alternative to nuclear power 30 years after Chernobyl

April 26, 2016

KIEV, April 26 (Xinhua) — Thirty years have passed since the Chernobyl power plant disaster, one of the world’s worst nuclear accidents, which has caused widespread environmental pollution and left the areas around the plant uninhabitable for centuries or even millennia to come. The anniversary of the catastrophe is another reminder that nuclear energy could become a major threat to the world if it is not handled with care and caution. Yet, many experts argue that currently, nuclear power is much safer than it was three decades ago and its role in Ukraine’s energy mix is irreplaceable.


Se souvenir, transmettre, représenter la catastrophe

April 26, 2016

Les voix que nous entendons approchent Tchernobyl en racontant l’histoire qui a traversé leur famille ou leur corps, tentent de saisir la catastrophe par un film, un texte, des objets collectés dans les maisons évacuées. Un documentaire de Marie Chartron et Vincent Decque Prise de son : Raymond Albouy


Україні час планувати енергетичне майбутнє без атому, — експертка

April 25, 2016

Ірина Головко розповідає про проблеми України з застарілими атомними енергоблоками та російським паливом. А ще називає популізмом заяву нового міністра екології про створення закритого ядерного циклу Ольга Веснянка: Який зв’язок між екологією, атомною енергетикою та громадськими кампаніями? І чим займається мережа «Bankwatch»?

30 Years After the Chernobyl Disaster, a Nuclear Menace Still Hides in Plain Sight

April 25, 2016

CHERNOBYL, Ukraine — It was a fine spring night, people peacefully sleeping as weekday passed into weekend, until Chernobyl’s fourth nuclear reactor blew up. Oleksandr Galuh recalls that night well. “My mother woke up as the windows shattered,” Galuh, then a fourth-grader in Pripyat, a town not too far from Chernobyl, remembers. “She thought it was a thunderstorm.”


Decades after Chernobyl, Ukraine hooked on nuclear more than ever

April 25, 2016

It’s the result of war, politics and economics. Three decades after the world’s worst nuclear accident, the home of the shuttered Chernobyl power plant remains more reliant than ever on nuclear power. When a botched test in the early hours of April 26, 1986, blew apart the reactor’s core and spewed huge amounts of radiation into the atmosphere, nuclear power accounted for about a quarter of the energy mix of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. Today, nuclear power produces more than half of Ukraine’s energy — the result of war, politics and economics.
