8:30 Window on The World
Another Science in Action programme from The BBC World Service. Tonight the team talk to researchers who are calling for a major rethink on our attitude to air quality, they try to explain why some people become very ill with Covid and others have little if any symptoms and as nuclear material buried beneath the doomed Chernobyl nuclear power plant is becoming more active, they talk to Neil Hyatt, Professor of Nuclear Materials Chemistry at Sheffield University who says it's a small increase but needs to be monitored.
A sign of radioactive danger is pictured at the entrance of the abandoned village of Babchin, outside the 30-km exclusion zone around the Chernobyl nuclear reactor, some 370 km southeast of Minsk, Belarus. Photo: Photo by Viktor Drachev / Sputnik / Sputnik via AFP
