2. Accumulative effects of radiation is very important |
|
I have been dosed twice already with Windscale, UK in the late 50s, Chenobyl in the 1980s and now #3 Japan's Fukishima. I am tired of the "we get this much every time we have an X-Ray or travel in a plane." These effects from the nuclear power stations are cumulative and can alter genes over a life time. The powers that be NEVER tell the public the true story. We hear of leaks that produce 'screaming' levels of radiation from these plants yet it is all brushed under the carpet.
I think radiation will be the thing that gets the human race in the end.
