Novozybkov, Bryansk region, Ryssland




The planned building C


Back ground

The nuclear power accident in Chernobyl is the worst nuclear catastrophe in the world. Unbelievably areas in Belarus, Ukraine and Russia became polluted by at least 20 different kinds radioactive particles as above all Cesium-137 and Strontium-90 with a half-life-time of 30 respectively 29 years – but even by more long-lived material like plutonium-239 with a half-life-time of 24 000 years. Still about 6-10 million people still lives in radioactive polluted areas in these three countries. The radioactive cloud from Chernobyl spread its deadly poison over the whole northern hemisphere. In places where it happened to rain, the grown became radioactive.








This is the official map over how the radioactive dust fell down over Europe after the accident in Chernobyl. However, it does not show it all…


Reactor 4 in Chernobyl after the explosion 


Liquidators at the roof of reactor 3 who under just one  (1) Minute per day where aloud to shovel the deadly, radioactive material down in the exploded reactor  4.


Novozybkov, Bryansk region, Russian Federation


About 200 kilometres north of Chernobyl in Ukraine.

Such a place is the Russian town Novozybkov with 45 000 inhabitants of which 12 000 are children about 200 kilometres from Chernobyl. Several villages around the town are evacuated, since they are as radioactive polluted as the worst places within the forbidden enclosure zone with 30 kilometres radius from the nuclear power plant.


The medical effects of the radiation from Chernobyl are impossible to prove. The only thing that is possible to prove, is that the medical and the social situation today in the area are related to the catastrophe. The people in Novozybkov are every day exposed to low dose radiation, that is told to be even more dangerous than the acute radiation that in high doses kill immediately (compare with Hiroshima). People who live in radioactive polluted areas also have to eat radioactive food every day, heat their stoves with radioactive wood and so on.
