Where is all that Fukushima radiation going, and why does it matter? from Fairewinds Associates on Vimeo.
Action item this video suggests: pester your congress people and safety regulators to start monitoring for small radioactive dust particles. This is different from an x-ray or a plane flight... they last for a short time. In contrast, an ingested radioactive particle can continue to emit radiation to your body for the rest of your life.
I checked on google maps, and I am sorry to say that my nearest nuke is only 23.5 miles away:
This nuke, Shearon Harris, has a terrible safety record.
" Harris has been in violation of federal fire regulations since at
least 1992, and ranks worst in the nation in at least two critical fire safety criteria. "
Zoom in, Durham, and wake up and smell the steaming potentially radioactive coffee:
The irony is that we wouldn't need the nukes if we went ahead with energy conservation and solar and wind power generation, according to NC Warn.

Wow! This is very sobering information. The piece of info that bothered me the most is that these airborne radioactive particles don't change very much, lasting for a very long time. I haven't watched all the video info yet. At the moment, I'm wondering how we can prevent these particles from getting into our food, water, etc. Thanks for posting this information, Susan. I haven't heard about these long-life radioactive particles from Japan, and I do hear the so-called news fairly regularly.
