What happened at Fukushima was devastating but was also a result of an earthquake and tsunami (other factors did contribute). Chernobyl was a direct result of multiple human errors and inadequate safety precautions. So from that perspective, Chernobyl was an accident whereas Fukushima was a natural disaster.
In the USA, the term holiday doesn't necessarily mean a day off work, but rather "A day on which a festival, religious event, or national celebration is traditionally observed." (wiktionary). For instance, where I live, Halloween and Christmas are both considered holidays, but most people don't get time off of work or school for Halloween like they often do for Christmas. While not as popular as Halloween, Earth Day would fall into the same category, imo.
The vast majority of dictionaries define a holiday as “suspension from work” to celebrate. How many countries have a day off for Earth Day? None, except in Thunberg-land
When you say grandsons of Genghis Khan, are you including great grandsons or even great-grandsons. Because even though he is known for having a huge amount of desendents, he only had four sons, and I highly doubt that the four of them could produce that many kids.
Please accept cubiccm for cubic centimetres. This did not work and I could not figure out what else it might stand for. Would be consistent with Jet Punk's usual acceptance of standard contractions - for example, gwtw works for Gone with the Wind.
Gtwg works? You mean I've spent the last seven or eight years of my life painstakingly typing it out in full every time it's come up? I'm in shock... and I'm off to find one of those Hollywood/Oscar/film type quizzes just for the sheer joy of typing the initials instead! :)
While I get that cubic centimeters is technically correct, I agree with you that cubic cm should be accepted as a type-in. Anyone who writes that obviously knows what the answer is supposed to be, and I'm pretty sure (though dont quote me on this) that cm is a commonly accepted abbreviation for centimeter on jetpunk
Chernobyl: 31 deaths, 44,000 indirect deaths, 350,000 permanently evacuated.
No way Fukushima can be considered worse.
I hereby rule your nitpick to be invalid.
