There is a Terrible Truth about the Chernobyl Disaster

On April 26, 1986, an explosion and fire at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine caused radioactive fallout to begin spewing into the atmosphere. (Dozens of people were killed in the immediate aftermath of the disaster while the long-term death toll from radiation poisoning is believed to number in the thousands.)

This disaster and the other accidents and crises are in fact something more than warnings. They are all that is given to us to know of the end of the world. In a way, they are the end of the world.
