Not only is low-dose radiation not harmful, but there is a great deal of evidence that it is beneficial.

In one of the most dramatic cases, apartments in Taiwan were constructed with materials contaminated with Cobalt-60. Nearly 10,000 residents lived there for ten years before the radiation was discovered.

Surprisingly, the cancer rate among the residents was less than 5 percent the rate for the rest of Taiwan. Note that, is was not 5 percent less - it was 5 percent or twenty times less!

There are numerous other studies that support benefits of low-dose radiation.

The big attack on nuclear power is by wind and solor people. They are exagerating the danger in alomost any way they can for the profitibility of their product versus nuclear power.

An example is California. They are scheduled to shut down their last reator next year while they are being forced to buy power from states all over the west because they can’t stay up with the need.

But nuclear power is being used more and more because of growth and it is drawing from those states still with reactors. And with the failure of the grids to handle the needs, the unlikely use of wind and power, especially with the lies they throw, is becoming a non entity. It can’t stay with the advancing requirement and the cost will be passed on to the users with a failing future.

The only state that has been able to operate without nuclear power is Hawaii but they have started legislation to change that this year. The pinch is on as the islands develope.
