Exposure to radiation from the 1986 Chernobyl accident had a lasting negative legacy on the area's trees, a study has suggested......Prof Mousseau and his team hope to follow up this study by carrying out similar work in the Fukushima region in Japan

UPDATE

Chernobyl zone shows decline in biodiversity




The largest wildlife census of its kind conducted in Chernobyl has revealed that mammals are declining in the exclusion zone surrounding the nuclear power plant


SOURCE


Bad for mammals = bad for humans.

In fact linking from that report are others showing decline in insects and birds. So thats pretty much the whole eco cycle screwed then
