They were different kinds of disasters, but not incomparable in terms of the scope and reach of damage done to the environment. Chernobyl didn't have the situation of dumping incalculable amounts of radioactive water into the Pacific.
the ocean is a pretty fine place for radioactive water to be. the Pacific is really big and radiation danger is dose dependent.
That's relative. People eat seafood. Which is why this was a concern for many of the neighboring countries.
