So in this post, we’re going to take a deeper look at the nature of nuclear fallout. The silver lining? Radioactive fallout isn’t nearly as instantaneous, destructive, and unpredictable as a nuclear blast or meltdown. Indeed, it is something that you can prepare for -something you can work around and navigate your way through. It doesn’t matter whether you’re talking about a meltdown at one of the world’s 450 active nuclear facilities, a terrorist attack with a dirty bomb, or full-scale nuclear war: fallout will be a fact of life for anyone in the surrounding area.
In this regard, radioactive fallout can be elusive-taking a ruinous toll on some, while others are left seemingly untouched.Įither way, the most important point to remember is that fallout is the inevitable result of practically any major nuclear event. Meanwhile, the black rain following the atomic blasts at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, were clearly devastating. In some cases, the consequences might seem trivial. Take, for example, the lack of salad greens throughout France for months following the Chernobyl disaster.
