While I don't think I agree that this thing could bottom out the global economy, it is likely to have greater economic impact than Chernobyl. The size of the seafood and tourist industries on the Gulf Coast (not to mention the curtailed oil industry) likely dwarfs the erstwhile industrial output of the impacted areas around Chernobyl.
