Temelin is not harming local inhabitants

A medical study conducted by researchers at Masaryk University suggests that people living in the vicinity of the Temelin nuclear power plant do not suffer any adverse psychological effects from the plant's close proximity. The study involved a thousand Temelin locals and a thousand people from other areas. According to the results, the incidence of depression among people living near Temelin is lower than the average in the Czech Republic. Nevertheless many respondents living close to the plant said that they felt they did not have as much control over their lives as people elsewhere.
