POST 7
Hi everyone,
the person I chose is Valery Alekseyevich Lagasov he was a soviet chemist in the
field of inorganic chemistry, he was born on September 1, 1936 in Tula in the
former Soviet Union and he is remembered because he oversaw the Chernobyl
accident investigation committee. After the accident, he was a key member in
investigating the causes of the disaster and measures to minimize its effects.
His death
was a suicide two years after the incident, at which time he was suffering from
depression and lung cancer due to the radioactivity he was exposed to. In 1996
he was awarded the title of Hero of the Russian Federation.
I
personally respect Valery because he and his team of researchers managed to
somehow minimize the damage caused to the population and they did it all from
scientific knowledge, I hope someday to help the planet in that way.
