Effects of nuclear weapons

So it's 1945 you're chilling and then all of a sudden you get vaporized. This picture shows what happened after Enola Gay took a trip to Japan. A person was allegedly sitting there near ground zero and this is what was left of them after the blast. If you were 'lucky' to survive you'd spent the rest of your life living like a freak of nature thanks to nuclear weapons. We as humans did and continue doing a lot of bad things, but this one wins the prize. Nuclear weapons not only offer immediate destruction but horrible aftermaths.

No witty caption, this gives me the chills.
Not only nuclear weapons pose a threat, but nuclear energy as well (see: Chernobyl, Fukushima). Despite the dangers of it, there are nuclear power plants being constructed across the world. Then again, some countries halted their nuclear energy programs and started investing more in renewable energy sources, like solar panels. Even though, we still consume a lot of energy and keep polluting our one and only rock.
