While “possible” danger vis-a-vis Three Mile Island, the actual danger was vastly overbloom, while the press did it’s job in convincing you that officials wrongly minimized the danger.
So, since your class experiment, how many of you have had arly deaths from cancers from the background radiation that fogged the film? I see you are still here.
Have you see the healthy life - flora and fauna - that now flourishes around Chernobyl?
Do you know when, where and how the “official” rate of “lethal” dosage of radiation was determined, and how very suspect it is, scientifically?
I’m no shrinking violet, I’m a proponent of the responsible application of nuclear power. Even through all the machinations of the federal government we still get things like ventilation systems at the WIPP facility without even rudimentary exhaust filtering. While we have government mandating extreme scrubbers and carbon sequestration for coal plants, there was virtually no oversight of atmospheric venting of emissions from a supposed low level waste facility. Obviously some stupid s#!t went on there and it gives the whole industry a black eye.
