In the event of an accident at the Zaporizhzhya NPP, the consequences threaten the whole world

Millions of people of countries, lands and waters will be under radioactive impact, according to Ivan Kovalets, the head of the department of mathematical modeling of the environment at the Institute of Problems of Mathematical Machines and Systems of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.
There are emissions calculations for one of these scenarios. This scenario involves competent actions of the personnel during the accident to minimize the consequences. That is, it is not an "apocalyptic" scenario, but it is a very severe accident of the maximum category 7 on the INES scale. When the emission estimates are made, everything depends on the meteorological conditions, and we model the atmospheric distribution, he explained.
