There was no famous disaster (or anything else) at Chernobyl in Russia as there is no such place. However for the disaster that occurred in Chernobyl in the Ukraine, please see the related question.
What causes radioactives pollution?
The release of radioactive substances in the atmosphere leads to radioactive pollution. Only the radioactive wastes cause the radioactive pollution. Nuclear material is pure and they are not the factor for causing radioactive pollution. The waste discarded improperly only causes radioactive pollution.The following causes the radioactive pollution in high rangeNuclear power plantsCoal fired power plantsUranium plantsThe above said power plants release radioactive wastes to the atmosphere. During their release or transportation of radioactive wastes, the radioactive pollution occurs.
Where was the Chernobyl disaster at?
It was in the Ukraine, however it affected many countries across Europe and the world
How do you stop radioactive pollution?
we can stop this pollution by throwing booms.

The disaster at Chernobyl has led to?

What is the definition of nuclear pollution?
nuclear pollution is the type of pollution caused due to the release of radioactive substances in the environment
How does the nuclear power compare with other sources in the terms of polluting the environment?
Nuclear power introduces different pollution possibilities compared to fossil fuels, because it alone produces radioactive fission products. The design objective is to always contain this potential pollution, and in the majority of plants this is achieved. The occasional release of radioactivity such as at Chernobyl does however illustrate what can happen if things go wrong. In the US and western Europe such major faults have never happened, and nuclear power has therefore registered almost zero pollution.
