…out (~0.5mSv/a) with nearby districts with low fall-out (<0.1mSv/a). After Chernobyl and before Chernobyl (all districts then no fall-out). If there is some difference due confounding factors it shows in the situation before Chernobyl and is corrected accordingly; – changes over a period of 5 years before and 5 years after Chernobyl And it covers the whole Bavarian population (~12million). So no possibility that the research subject selection crea…

Putting excitement back into nuclear technology development

…nd may also merit early protective actions, remediation, and monitoring in Chernobyl and elsewhere..” “I consider any areas or hot spots in Chernobyl exclusion zone resulting in an excess received dose of 20 mSv over a year (or 100 mSv over a lifetime) to involve statistically significant elevated health risks.” Of course, You ignore all the cleanup workers who recieved doses over 100 mSv in a much shorter period of time and are just as healthy as…

It is never safe to panic and it is wrong to appear uncertain when you know what to do

…while doing it. Jerry It’s interesting to look at the differences between Chernobyl and Fukushima: Chernobyl – Fukushima 4 reactors – 6 reactors fission energy – decay heat huge steam explosion – minor hydrogen explosions no containment – good containment graphite fire – smaller local fires Jerry I think the debate between green energy and nuclear will become intense after this. Green energy people will demand zero nukes, but their energy has bee…

…adiation institute. – European stillbirth proportions before and after the Chernobyl accident – Perinatal mortality in Germany following the Chernobyl accident. Bas @John Check the video in the link. Then you can hear that the ICRP representative admits it. Bill Chaffee According to SCE it would not be cost effective to restart San Onofre. Is that based on the assumption that natural gas will stay below a certain price? If so than what is that cer…

Atomic Show #240 – Prof Gerry Thomas radiation health effects

ByRod Adams

…hy of attention. Dr. Thomas and I talked about her experiences in studying Chernobyl, the vast difference in initial response between the Chernobyl accident and the Fukushima accident, the expected health effects from Fukushima (virtually zero from radiation, unmeasurable from ill conceived fear), and the need to improve public responses to rare, but still possible nuclear accidents. We commiserated a bit about the difficulty associated with chang…

Mark Jacobson pushing his plans in appropriate location – late night comedy show

ByRod Adams

…w can you believe that all these horrible results less than 3 months after Chernobyl were caused by Chernobyl? Which is it? Does low level radiation have deadly effects within less than 3 months or are the effects of low level radiation not apparent until 20-60 years after exposure? “Alas, in medical & social sciences it is often: “you don’t bite the hand that feeds you”. These UN organizations are still mainly paid by the atomic powers.” So then…

Fukushima is not contaminating Pacific

ByGuest Author

…arch?q=chernobyl+babies&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X Of course, there are no ‘Chernobyl babies’ and there never have been. The popular ‘chernobyl‘ images showing the infamous disfigured children in fact show children who suffer from all manner of various maladies and poisonings (often simply drug/alcohol addicted mothers) which have nothing to do with radiological contamination at all. Of course the Prophets maintain otherwise. Only a dozen or two ch…

Stanford climate scientists promote 100% renewable revolution using natural gas money

…illages not far away from Chernobyl. Who are obviously not talking to the “Chernobyl babushkas” inside the Chernobyl exclusion zone.  As I recall, their vital statistics are better than those who accepted relocation.  This is eerily similar to the death statistics of Fukushima refugees forced from their homes by edict from Tokyo; a little radiation does nothing, but being torn from your home is devastating and can be deadly. There are reports that…

Energiewende – planned by industry and government without customer considerations

…1992”. This relates to ~100million people. So many extra tragedies due to Chernobyl, while all these countries are far away from Chernobyl! And this does not end after 1992 as the main cause, Cesium-137, has a half live of ~30years! As there are many other countries that also got significant fall-out, such as Turkey, Poland, Hungary, etc. the total affected population is >200million. That delivers a calculated estimation of >30,000 extra stillbir…

Civil disobedience might be needed to overcome illogical EPA limits on radiation

…ernobyl radiation nearby areas that got ~10 times less radio-activity from Chernobyl. So Chernobyl delivered an unique situation that allowed to measure effects of low level radiation more accurate than anything before. Quite a number of studies were published. Studies from different countries were used in the study I referred to (http://www.helmholtz-muenchen.de/ibb/homepage/hagen.scherb/CongenMalfStillb_0.pdf). It showed with strong significance…
