Chapter 241 Radiation Effects
Although the problem was identified, there was no good solution.
Since Country R dumped nuclear wastewater into the sea, at first there was only radiation in the seawater, and a large number of marine life died. Those who were lucky enough to survive mostly mutated.
People can only reduce their intake of seafood.
As the discharge time of country R prolongs, the radiated seawater pours back into the river, and then extends from the river to all directions.Radioactive material appeared in many drafts and soil.
The first country to be affected by the disaster was Country R, but as time went by, from the countries surrounding Country R to all over the world, the radiation problem has become the biggest problem in this game world.
Shuangfeng Village is far away from the sea, and everyone is beginning to be affected.
In villages affected by radiation disasters, villagers must either move to places that are not exposed to radiation, or purchase expensive radiation prevention products. These products have been studied by various countries since Country R discharged nuclear wastewater into the sea. After more than ten years, The products are diverse and have different functions.But what can be bought only treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and only has delayed or simple preventive effects.
The conditions of the villagers in Shuangfeng Village have improved in the past two years and they have made a little money. No matter which method they use, the villagers cannot afford it.
People always have to live. In the past, a lot of land could not be cultivated, so the villagers dug up wasteland and planted on the land that had not been polluted. The river water was polluted, so they could only dig more wells and ponds.The wells are all dug deep, and the groundwater has not been affected much yet. The ponds are mostly used to store rainwater and irrigate the land.
Fortunately, the villagers have been cultivating the land all their lives and have endured hardships. Although it is very hard and the income is not high, they can always live a good life.
This kind of stability cannot last forever. The radiation problem has not been fundamentally solved, and the impact will only become more serious day by day.
Although Country R has announced that it has stopped discharging nuclear wastewater into the sea due to external pressure, no one knows whether they have really stopped. Moreover, the impact of such long-term discharge cannot be solved by stopping the discharge.
After more than ten years, problems gradually appeared in the newly reclaimed land. The water in deep wells and ponds also gradually contained radioactive substances. It appeared in every aspect of people's lives and surrounded them.Not only plants, animals, and water sources are harmed by radiation, but people living in them cannot escape the misfortune.The people living in Shuangfeng Village began to have physical problems to some extent, and many villagers found that they were aging quickly.
Although Shuangfengzhai is a poor village, it used to have beautiful mountains and clear waters and fresh air. In the past, there were countless old people who lived to be 90 or 70 years old.But after decades of changes, no one over the age of can be found in the entire village.
The living people are affected, but the unborn babies are even more affected. More and more children are dying in each family. It seems like we have returned to the ancient times when medical conditions were very poor, and every couple would have one or two die. child.
Many of those who were lucky enough to survive had some problems, and very few grew up normally.
Over the years, those who were able to move out moved out, and those who were unable to move out died many more. Shuangfeng Village has also gone from being a large village with one to two hundred households to only a few dozen households left now.
The only good thing is that after decades of research, people have come up with some methods to deal with the radiation problem, and have gradually achieved some results in dealing with it, and good results have been achieved in many aspects.
For example, seeds that can be planted in land damaged by radiation, various equipment and medicines that can purify water sources, various radiation-proof clothing, and some mild radiation can also be treated.
It's just that the people still alive in Shuangfeng Village are really poor. In addition to buying seeds, they are reluctant to spend more money to buy various radiation-proof items.
However, eating and drinking is a big deal, and it is also the factor that has the greatest impact on people, so the villagers still pooled their money and bought medicines that can purify water sources and put them into the wells. However, the taste of some medicines is not good, and the purified water will have a strange smell. But it's better to drink something unpleasant than having radioactive substances.
This is why Jiang Quhan's food tastes delicious, but his drinking water tastes strange.
