Environmental protection in Ukraine.

A popular comic-strip character of the past named Pogo once made a statement that could serve as a motto for the environmental movement today: “We have met the enemy,” he said: “And it is us”. But even as we recognize that environmental pollution and loss of natural habitat are the work of people, we also recognize that we have met the solution – and it is “us” as well.

Environmental protection is a great concern of the Ukrainian government. The ministry of Environmental protection is given the task to control the state of the environment and sources of pollution, to protect soil and water resources of Ukraine, especially after April, 1986 when there was enormous radioactive contamination of a great deal of the Ukrainian territory. One more problem was caused by the appearance of supersonic jet airlines which use up tons of oxygen and throw out over 150,000 tons of water vapour into the Stratosphere every day, increasing the temperature and clouds as they do so. It is important that an international organization work out the rules for the use of the Earth’s atmosphere. The development of industry has had a bad influence on the nature, too. Many international organizations are conducting campaigns for protection of our nature. The Ukrainian Green Party takes an active part in these campaigns. It deals with the most urgent ecological problems of today. We must protect our land, water, air, otherwise nobody of us survives in future. Our Earth is our home. And we must take care of us.

motto – девіз

contamination – зараження

natural habitat – природне середовище

oxygen – кисень

pollution – забруднення

vapour – пара

sollution – вирішення

take care – піклуватися

Chernobyl nuclear accident

Ex.1 Ознайомтесь та вивчіть тематичну лексику:

explosion ­­– вибух

hundredfold – у сто крат

to contaminate – заражати

stillbirth – народження мертвої дитини

to exceed – перевищувати

maintenance – утримування

elimination – вигнання, віддалення

Ex.2 Прочитайте та перекладіть текст:

The 26^th of April is a special day for the people living in Ukraine and regions situated not far from it. On that day in 1986 a horrible accident occurred at the Chernobyl nuclear station. There was a nuclear reactor explosion, which had far reaching consequences.

Contamination by various radioactive isotopes, such as caesium-137, iodine-131, strontium-90, plutonium-239, and plutonium-240, from the Chernobyl nuclear accident have affected the air, land and water of Ukraine an vast areas beyond it. Recorded but unreported radiation levels in Kyiv a few days after the accident exceeded the maximum allowable levels by a hundredfold.

Press reports claim that significant numbers of deaths by radiation sickness, elevated levels of stillbirth and birth defects and highly elevated rates of childhood leukemia have occurred in the affected areas. Those claims and other concerns are being researched by a – host of scientists and medical professionals from Ukraine and other countries.

Recent detailed field studies indicate that significant areas of agricultural and forest lands of Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia will remain unsafe for human occupancy and food production for upwards of eight thousand years. Nevertheless, thousands of people who were evacuated after the accident have returned to here and farm in these highly contaminated regions. Thus, the Chernobyl region, in fact, has become something of a living laboratory for the study of nuclear contamination.

A number of foreign countries offered specialized medical equipment and drugs for biological elimination of isotopes of different chemical elements from human body. Later on thousands of children were taken to other republics of the former USSR and abroad for corresponding medical treatment.

Such accidents like that in Chernobyl must never be repeated again, because the very existence of millions of people may be under a threat. The safe maintenance of nuclear power stations depends on proper work and sufficient technical knowledge of every worker and engineer.

The Ukrainian people are very grateful to all those who helped and continue to help them.
