    I’m intrigued because my friend used to work at Sellarfield trying to find ways to mitigate the damage. He had loads of cool stories about the flora and fauna that still appear to be thriving in the irradiated ecosystem. Also one time a co-worker had a seagull shit on her head on the way into work, it wouldn’t wash out in the chemical shower, and they had to shave off all her hair.

      When the Windscale disaster happened it was the worst nuclear disaster in history. It was so bad that Chernobyl nuclear plant from the USSR phoned them for advice on how to avoid a similar incident happening there… unfortunately they eventually ended up experiencing something much worse due to the design of their reactor.
