While he is correct about the half-life uranium 238 decays incredibly slowly and emits primarily alpha radiation which can be blocked by the human skin or a piece of paper. The more dangerous factor is the remaining 2% of the fuel which was uranium 235, which is highly radioactive and decays relatively quickly causing massive amounts of gamma beta and alpha radiation. Gamma and beta radiation being significantly more dangerous.

As we have learned within couple of decades, biological life is far more resilient. Domestic animals that were abandoned in that stupid power plant have survived and even thrived along the wild life that has reclaimed the area. There are people who live in the radioactive regions of Ukraine and Belarus and they ate surviving. It was the collapse of the communist State that made their on-going lives difficult because they have lost the State support and welfare that was available under the communist State. Nuclear power plants are a dumb idea unless they can be built far far away from natural habitats and we have tge technology and adequate contingencies to address accidents. Russians and Japanese have learned it the hard way by their dumb actions of building nuclear power plants in wrong locations. Ultimately, it is the human species that we need to protect from our own stupiditiies. The natural flora and fauna will continue regardless of mass extinction that we are causing right now.

No, because the nuclear reactor at Chernobyl actually uses uranium 235 because it is an RBMK reactor. So what is the half-life of uranium 235?

All things being equal, the longer the half life, the lower the radiation level. Uranium-238 is not the danger, it's the other contaminants like Plutonium and Cesium that much, much shorter half lives and much stronger radiation.

Very disappointed that this is attributing (by ommision) the radiation levels to U-238. The levels are due to much shorter half-lived isotopes. Now, the effects will still be very long living, but this is scientifically poorly done.

Surely U238 isn't the problem because having such a long half life implies it's pretty low activity. Isn't it all the other fissionable 235, fission byproducts and neutron bombarded stuff that's the main radiation risk? All that stuff has a much shorter half life.

<<@JessicaMcCranie_CS_TG
says :
Shielding the remains of that reactor while still occupying that building isn’t very smart. If the reactor was left open… the rain/snow would dilute some of that radiation just like it did with Pripyat soil. When it rains on top of radiation, it will gradually dilute it and water it into the ground. But covering it up will just preserve the radiation in that area. So yes it will stick around longer. They proved this in a video I watched about nuclear reactors and Fukushima reactor meltdown.
