Nuclear Impact on Society and Environment

Dangerous nuclear reactor and threaten human safety. Radiation caused by two nuclear reactors.           First, direct radiation, ie radiation that occurs when the active radio emitted directly on the skin or the human body.  Second, the indirect radiation. Indirect radiation is radiation that occurs through contaminated food and drinks radioactive substances, whether through air, water, or other media.

              Both radiation directly or indirectly, will affect the function of organs through cell-cell formation. Sensitive organs will be damaged. The cells of the body when contaminated with radioactive description as follows: the ionization due to radiation can damage the relationship between atoms in the molecules of living cells, can also change the atom itself, alter the original function of cells or even to kill him. Principally, there are three due to radiation which can affect the cell.. First, the body's cells would die. Second, there was a doubling of cells, which eventually can cause cancer. Third, damage incurred in the testicles, which will start the process of deformed babies. And also cause burns and an increasing number of people with cancer (thyroid and cardiovascular) as much as 30-50% in Ukraine, respiratory inflammation, and inhibition of the respiratory tract, as well as psychological problems and stress resulting from radiation leakage.

              There are some latent danger of nuclear power plants to consider. First, human error that could cause leaks, the very wide range of radiation and fatal to the environment and living things. Second, one of which is produced by nuclear power plants, namely Plutonium has a very powerful warhead. Plutonium Because of this, one of the raw material for making nuclear weapons. The city of Hiroshima was devastated by only 5 kg of plutonium. Third, the resulting waste could affect the genetics. In addition, nuclear power emits radioactive radiation is very dangerous for humans.
