SILENT KILLERS, SLOW POISONS ~ RADIATION : PART 1 OF 4

IT IS DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE WHICH IS THE MOST TOXIC TO THE HUMAN SYSTEM OF THE FOUR TOPICS I HOPE TO ADDRESS IN THIS SERIES "SILENT KILLERS, SLOW POISONS"... (1) RADIATION, (2) WATER POLLUTANTS, (3) AIR CONTAMINANTS, OR (4) ADDED FOOD TOXINS.
I DECIDED TO BEGIN WITH RADIATION...A CANCER-CAUSING SILENT KILLER.

IT'S KEPT RELATIVELY QUIET IN AMERICA WHEN ONE OF OUR NUCLEAR REACTORS EXPERIENCES AN 'ACCIDENT' OR 'INCIDENT', SO ONE MUST LOOK CAREFULLY TO FIND RECENT REPORTS OF SUCH.
BUT IT ISN'T JUST NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS THAT ENDANGER EARTH'S CITIZENS. RADIATION ENTERS OUR BODIES FROM MANY SOURCES AND SLOWLY DESTROYS OUR CELLS, OUR DNA, AND CAUSES SERIOUS BIRTH DEFECTS IN OUR NEWBORNS.
OUR PHYSICIANS SEEM TO REQUIRE MORE AND MORE X-RAYS AND SCANS, MAMMOGRAMS, ETC, EACH YEAR, WHICH ADDS TO THE INJURY WE SUSTAIN EVERY DAY FROM RADIATION.
OUR USE OF CELLPHONES, MICROWAVES AND WI-FI CAN ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO RADIATION CONTAMINATION AS YOU WILL SEE FROM SEVERAL STUDIES LISTED BELOW.
OUR HIGH-TECH GADGETS HAVE CREATED WHAT IS BEING CALLED "ELECTROSMOG". NBC RECENTLY REPORTED ON THIS NEW BIO-HAZARD HERE:
http://www.nbcnews.com/id/34509513/#.UV-7ZDe3OSo

The "electrosmog" that first began developing with the roll-out of the electrical grid a century ago and now envelops every inhabitant of Earth is responsible for many of the diseases that impair--or kill--us.

THESE ARE ALL VERY HAZARDOUS TO HUMAN HEALTH, AND ALL, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE POLLUTANTS, ARE KNOWINGLY INTRODUCED INTO THE ENVIRONMENT BY PEOPLE WHO KNOW BETTER THAN TO DO SO, BUT WHO HAD RATHER MAKE MONEY THAN GUARD THE HEALTH OF A NATION.
I HOPE WE ALL LEARN FROM THESE FACTS, FROM THESE TRUTHS, FOR WE MUST LEARN...OR PERISH.

NUCLEAR INCIDENTS, DEADLY BUT UNDER-REPORTED
We can find the alarming news here and there, but must really dig to uncover them most of the time. We are reassured that there is "no imminent anger", but years later, cancers increase, people are "MYSTERIOUSLY" sick, babies are born with horrible deformities, men discover they are sterile, and nothing changes after the NEXT "incident". Mainstream media often makes the excuse of not wanting to create panic, but maybe people wouldn't panic...maybe we would all just demand changes, learn ways to protect ourselves and those we love!

Did you read about any of these WHEN they happened?

<<About half of the nuclear plants in the U.S. have been in operation for 30 years or more; none are younger than 10 years. “As plants get older, the chance of failure goes up,”
But even today, 47 U.S. reactors — including Browns Ferry — don’t meet the NRC’s fire protection regulations.
The UCS spotlighted 14 incidents in 2010 that “raised the risk of damage to the reactor core — and thus to the safety of workers and the public,” as well as three examples of exceptional preventative responses by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.>>

WE RECENTLY SAW THE VULNERABILITY OF AGING NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS AFTER A HURRICANE HIT OUR EAST COAST. HOW MANY STORMS, FLOODS, EARTHQUAKES DO OTHER SUCH PLANTS EXPERIENCE EACH YEAR? HOW OLD IS TOO OLD TO BE CALLED "SAFE"?

THEN WE HAVE OUR HIGH-TECH LIFESTYLES TO CONSIDER, ANOTHER SOURCE OF RADIATION, CLOSE-UP AND PERSONAL.
CELLPHONES AND WI-FI, MICROWAVES, WALKIE-TALKIES, SMART METERS... A LONG LIST OF HAZARDS TO OUR HEALTH.
PLEASE, READ THE STUDIES CAREFULLY.

<<How radiation sick is America?
In 2002, French medical specialists found that people living close to cell towers suffered extreme sleep disruption, chronic fatigue, nausea, skin problems, irritability, brain disturbances and cardiovascular problems. [SEE: “Study of the health of people living in the vicinity of mobile phone base stations: I. influences of distance and sex,” R. Santini et al, Institut National des Sciences Appliquées”laboratoire de biochimie-pharmacologie, 2002.]
By 2004, 12 research groups from seven European countries cooperating in the REFLEX study project confirmed that microwaves from wireless communications devices cause significant single and double strand DNA breaks in both human and animal cells under laboratory conditions.
In 2005, a Chinese medical study confirmed statistically significant DNA damage from pulsed microwaves at cell phone levels. That same year, University of Chicago researchers described how pulsed communications microwaves alter gene expression in human cells at non-thermal exposure levels. [“2.45 GHz radio frequency fields alter gene expression in cultured human cells,” Lee S. et al, Department of Medicine, University of Chicago, PubMed 16107253]
[Also see . “Cancer Cluster at Phone Masts, ” Times On Line, The Sunday Times, UK 4-22-07.]
Raking in BILLIONS OF DOLLARS from selling spectrum licenses, the feds have allowed the telecom industry to unleash demonstrably dangerous technology which induces millions of people to become brain-intimate with improperly tested wireless devices and which saturates the nation with carcinogenic waves to service those devices. [Please note: Few Americans know that cell phones have never been safety tested thanks to the FDA, which exempted cell phones from pre-market testing based on a “low power exclusion” rule.] Dr. Carlo says that even the American Cancer Society is 'in bed' with the communications industry, which infuses the Society with substantial contributions.

[NOTE: DO READ 'ANGELA'S STORY', AND 'METERS AND RESOURCES' ON THAT SITE.]

WHAT CAN WE DO?
According to OSHA, no environment should be deliberately made hazardous. Backed by current scientific knowledge, we can refuse to work or shop in an environment which endangers our health. We can demand that megahertz and gigahertz cordless phones, walkie talkie radios, WLAN and WiFi systems be removed from schools, offices, hospitals and any public place where people are grossly irradiated without their informed consent. Second hand smoke is bad; second hand radiation is worse.

www.buergerwelle.com  This excellent German (but in English) site features RF/microwave radiation news from all over the world. The science keeps pouring in and this is where to find it, along with lots of human interest.>>

TWO RECENT ARTICLES FROM THAT SITE: http://www.buergerwelle.com/en/

Too many electromagnetic fields surrounding us—from cell phones, wifi, and commonplace modern technology—may be seriously harming our health. Here's how to minimize your exposure.
http://www.prevention.com/health/healthy-living/electromagnetic-fields-and-your-health

The Russians first noticed during World War II that radar operators (radar operates using radio frequency waves) often came down with symptoms we now attribute to electrical hypersensitivity syndrome. In the 1960s, during the height of the Cold War, they secretly bombarded the US embassy in Moscow with microwave radiation (a higher-frequency RF used to transmit wireless signals), sickening American employees. Radio wave sickness-- also called microwave sickness-- is now a commonly accepted diagnosis.
  • When television (also radio wave) was introduced in Australia in 1956, researchers there documented a rapid increase in cancers among people who lived near transmission towers.
  • In the 1970s, Nancy Wertheimer, PhD, a Denver epidemiologist (since deceased), detected a spike in childhood leukemia (a rare disease) among kids who lived near electric power lines, prompting a rash of studies that arrived at similar conclusions.
  • In the 1980s, investigators concluded that office workers with high exposure to EMFs from electronics had higher incidences of melanoma--a disease most often associated with sun exposure-- than outdoor workers.
  • In 1998, researchers with the National Cancer Institute reported that childhood leukemia risks were "significantly elevated" in children whose mothers used electric blankets during pregnancy and in children who used hair dryers, video machines in arcades, and video games connected to TVs.
  • Over the past few years, investigators have examined cancer clusters on Cape Cod, which has a huge US Air Force radar array called PAVE PAWS, and Nantucket, home to a powerful Loran- Cantenna. Counties in both areas have the highest incidences of all cancers in the entire state of Massachusetts.
<< Sam Milham, MD, a widely traveled epidemiologist who has investigated hundreds of environmental and occupational illnesses and published dozens of peer-reviewed papers on his findings, was especially interested in measuring the ambient levels of a particular kind of EMF, a relatively new suspected carcinogen known as high-frequency voltage transients, or "dirty electricity." Transients are largely by-products of modern energy-efficient electronics and appliances--from computers, refrigerators, and plasma TVs to compact fluorescent lightbulbs and dimmer switches--which tamp down the electricity they use. This manipulation of current creates a wildly fluctuating and potentially dangerous electromagnetic field that not only radiates into the immediate environment but also can back up along home or office wiring all the way to the utility, infecting every energy customer in between.
The final analysis, reported by Milham and his colleague, L. Lloyd Morgan, in 2008 in the American Journal of Industrial Medicine: Cumulative exposure to transients in the school increased the likelihood a teacher would develop cancer by 64%. A single year of working in the building raised risk by 21%. The teachers' chances of developing melanoma, thyroid cancer, and uterine cancer were particularly high, as great as 13 times the average. Although not included in the tabulations, the risks for young students were probably even greater.
In 2007, the Bioinitiative Working Group, an international collaboration of prestigious scientists and public health policy experts from the United States, Sweden, Denmark, Austria, and China, released a 650-page report citing more than 2,000 studies (many very recent) that detail the toxic effects of EMFs from all sources. Chronic exposure to even low-level radiation (like that from cell phones), the scientists concluded, can cause a variety of cancers, impair immunity, and contribute to Alzheimer's disease and dementia, heart disease, and many other ailments.
"Every single study of brain tumors that looks at 10 or more years of use shows an increased risk of brain cancer," says Cindy Sage, MA, coeditor of the report. A recent study from Sweden is particularly frightening, suggesting that if you started using a cell phone as a teen, you have a 5 times greater risk of brain cancer than those who started as an adult. The risk rises even more for people who use the phone on only one side of the head. While defenders of cell phone safety claim no scientist can explain why EMFs may be harmful in humans, a body of reliable and consistent animal research shows that electromagnetic fields, equal to those generated by mobile phones, open the blood-brain barrier, causing blood vessels to leak fluid into the brain and damage neurons.>>

Symptoms of EHS, a recently identified condition, include fatigue, facial irritation (resembling rosacea), tinnitus, dizziness, and digestive disturbances, which occur after exposure to visual display units, mobile phones, WiFi equipment, and commonplace appliances. Experts say up to 3% of all people are clinically hypersensitive, as many as one-third of us to a lesser degree.

THIS ARTICLE IS LENGTHY BUT WELL WORTH THE READ AS IT DOES GO ON TO TELL YOU HOW TO MINIMIZE EXPOSURE TO THESE THINGS.

THERE IS A RELATED ARTICLE ON 11 THINGS YOU CAN DO HERE:
http://www.prevention.com/electroshocker/index.shtml
1. Avoid wireless when possible
EMF in the radio range accumulates, so if possible, choose wired Internet instead of wireless, a wired home security system, and wired entertainment systems. If you do use WiFi, plug in only when needed, and disconnect during sleeping hours. Keep the router as far as possible from your desk and children’s rooms.
2. Pick safer lightbulbs
Avoid compact fluorescent bulbs, which emit dirty electricity. A CFL saves energy by turning itself on and off repeatedly, as many as 100,000 times per second. Use LED or incandescent bulbs instead. Do not install dimmer switches (rheostats) for the same reason.
3. Stay away from the circuit breaker
Main electrical and circuit breaker panels give off high EMF within 3 to 4 feet. Make sure your bed is safely distant, and keep in mind the panel may be on the floor above or below you or on the other side of a wall.
4. Choose an old-school landline phone
Cordless phones can emit just as much radiation as mobile phones, although only when you’re using them. Consider reinstalling corded (landline) phones. Avoid very powerful digital enhanced cordless telecommunications (DECT) phones—the kind with a base station and satellite handsets.
5. Ban Bluetooth headsets
When on a cell phone, use the speakerphone or a wired earpiece (hollow cord types are preferable). Do not use a Bluetooth wireless headset; combined with the phone, it can exceed even the current inadequate safety limits.
Give text messaging a try, especially in place of short calls. It’s safer than holding the phone to your head. Do not allow children to use cordless or cell phones, except for emergencies.
6. Keep your laptop off your lap
Curling up on the couch with your laptop may be convenient, but EMF experts recommend against it. Many laptops produce a strong electromagnetic field, especially when you use one while it’s plugged into an outlet (that means the battery is charging close to where your hands are). You’re better off unplugging and using the laptop on battery power, then staying away from it while it recharges.

HOW MUCH DO SERIOUS NUCLEAR ACCIDENTS AFFECT US ALL?
ONE OF THE BIGGEST COVERUPS GOING ON IN THE WORLD TODAY IS THE FUKUSHIMA REACTORS LEAKING RADIATION INTO OUR WATER AND OUR ATMOSPHERE.
FUKUSHIMA AND RADIATION EFFECTS, THE TRUTH.
The truth is, Fukushima’s damaged/destroyed nuclear power plants are continuing to radiate the planet. Even as we passed the two-year 'anniversary' of the meltdowns last month, radiation continues to be released.
It IS in the water, it IS in the food, it IS in the air and it IS circling the globe.
There is absolute proof of that, but mainstream media simply refuses to report it, even the Atomic Energy Commission downplays it, and Japan may still be in denial as to how horribly dangerous those plants are to their nation and to the world.

THIS IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW! SHARE THIS WITH THOSE YOU CARE ABOUT.

[You may also access this sites news archives to the right of the article.]
<<The reactor containment structures which house the nuclear reactors at Fukushima made by GE, Hitachi, and Toshiba, have so many holes in them that they are preventing workers from making any substantial progress on improving conditions inside of the destroyed reactors, and will ultimately delay the removal of melted fuel from the reactor buildings, the question is just how long?
Since no progress can be made in the most critical areas of the reactor buildings, TEPCO has been forced to put most efforts towards removing the 1,533 spent fuel assemblies from the Unit 4 spent fuel pool, but even that requires special construction, unique equipment, and will be a process that takes years to complete. >>
YEARS? HOW MANY YEARS OF RADIATION LEAKING INTO OUR ATMOSPHERE, OCEANS, AND BODIES? NO ONE KNOWS!
HUMANS CANNOT REPAIR THE DAMAGE NOR SAFEGUARD THE LEAKS BECAUSE THE RADIATION ONSITE IS LETHAL WITHIN MINUTES!

The FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA) has allowed for some data collection, but can we hope it is reliable data? I just cannot, but you may have a look at what's available here: http://enformable.com/fukushima-radiation-data/

We will never know how many people have sacrificed their lives trying to repair the damage, trying to stop the radiation...EVEN ROBOTS CANNOT SURVIVE MORE THAN A VERY FEW MINUTES IN THAT ENVIRONMENT!
PEOPLE THERE ARE BEGGING THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY FOR HELP. NONE HAS COME.

<<Kyodo News, April 6, 2013: Tokyo Electric Power Co. said Friday that contaminated water may have leaked into soil from an underground reservoir tank at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. A radioactive substance has been detected in water accumulated between soil around the tank and the outer layer of a waterproof sheet covering the tank. The tank is covered by three layers of waterproof sheets. According to TEPCO and the Nuclear Regulation Authority, around 6,000 becquerels of radiation per cubic centimeter was logged in the water on Friday.>>
IT'S LEAKING INTO THE SOIL, INTO GROUNDWATER, INTO THE OCEAN AND INTO HUMAN BEINGS!

http://fukushima-diary.com/category/dnews/
BY A FORMER RESIDENT, THIS DIARY REPORTS FROM THE FUKUSHIMA SITE.
TODAY, WE SAW THIS:
100 tons of contaminated water may have already leaked to the ground.
The leakage came from the contaminated water storage facility described in his past post:
<<By this January, 96% of contaminated water storage facility was full. They made 4 holes underground and has been using them for the emergency water storage facility.>>
FISH TEST VERY HIGH FOR RADIATION THERE, AND RESIDENTS AS FAR AWAY AS 200 MILES REPORTED MUTATED CROPS AND FLOWERS, INSECTS AND BIRDS, NEWBORN ANIMALS AND NEWBORN HUMAN BABIES WITH AWFUL DEFORMITIES LAST YEAR!
WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR MASS EVACUATION TO BECOME MANDATORY? PEOPLE ARE DYING!

<<It's already well known how devastating the March 2011 Fukushima nuclear reactor meltdown was for Japan -- dramatic spikes in radiation-related illnesses, an increase in likely cancer deaths over the next several years, and pollution which may never truly be cleaned up.
A new study suggests what many worldwide have feared -- that the devastation from the traveling radiation has in fact sickened infants in other countries, including babies born shortly after the incident in Hawaii, Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and California.
If you have a baby born in March or April 2011 and you live on the Pacific Coast of the U.S. (or other Pacific countries), ask your pediatrician to test your child for congenital hypothyroidism -- and anything else he or she believes could have been caused by radiation. >>

<<...researchers have found trace levels of radiation still lingering in [bluefin tuna] flesh almost two years after the catastrophe at the nuclear plant in Fukushima, Japan. And the 50 tuna they studied were all caught off the coast of California, 6,000 miles east of Japan, where they were born.
The tuna that registered the highest levels of radioactivity were those that migrated to California in 2011, soon after the accident, but those that migrated in 2012 also demonstrated above-normal levels of radiation. Monte Burke at Forbes writes that the results of the study suggest “there is still a high level of radiation in the waters near the Fukushima plant most likely because, as marine chemist, Ken Buessler, asserts, the plant is still leaking radiation into the ocean nearly two years later.”>>

I’m sure the authorities have caught fish and they’re contaminated and to avoid a public health scare, or more likely to avoid a business collapse in the fisheries, they’re not telling people what the number is.>>

<<More than two years after the Fukushima nuclear disaster, TEPCO just this week began to distribute claims forms to victims who were forced to evacuate their homes and businesses in the no-entry zone, and are now eligible to claim the value of those properties. Approximately 50,000 households located in 11 municipalities are affected, and damages may reach as high as $7.6 billion. TEPCO apologized for taking so long to begin the compensation process.
Experts estimate that 230,000 tons of water being stored in tanks at the Fukushima compound are contaminated with hundred of trillions of becquerels of tritium. If tests are successful, officials said that the new system will begin operating in approximately four months. Last month, TEPCO said it wants to dump massive amounts of cooling water into the ocean, but local fisheries cooperatives have raised strong opposition to the plan. The utility previously released low-level radioactive water into the ocean in 2011, a move that prompted significant international criticism.>>

FROM CELLPHONES TO FUKUSHIMA, ALL THESE SOURCES OF RADIATION ADD UP TO JUST ONE THING...WE ARE LIVING IN A WORLD THAT BOMBARDS US DAILY WITH TOO MUCH RADIATION FOR HUMAN DNA TO NOT BE AFFECTED.
WE NEED TO DETERMINE ACTUAL, HONEST AMOUNTS IN OUR ENVIRONMENT, AND INSIDE EACH OF US. WE NEED TO KNOW IF WE LIVE IN HIGH-LEVEL AREAS, HOW MUCH IS IN OUR AREAS OF THE WORLD.
WE NEED TO KNOW, AND WE DESERVE HONEST ANSWERS!
IF THE RADIATION CAUSING SUCH A SPIKE IN CANCERS, IN PEOPLE EXPERIENCING DEBILITATING MENTAL ISSUES, RAGE, EXTREME NAUSEA, DISORIENTATION, HAVING HALLUCINATIONS, BEING SO TIRED THEY CAN SCARCELY FUNCTION, WHY HIDE IT?
AS ANY SCIENTIST COULD TELL YOU, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "A LITTLE" RADIATION! ANY "EXTRA" RADIATION STARTS CHANGING CELLS AND DNA!

<<A new report released by the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement reveals that Americans' exposure to radiation has increased more than 600 percent over the last three decades. Most of that increase has come from patients' exposure to radiation through medical imaging scans such as CT scans and mammograms.
As ABC News reports, Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, the deputy chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society, says, "Radiation exposure from these scans is not inconsequential and can lead to later cancers."
The higher frequency radiations, from x-rays to nuclear radiation, are clearly dangerous. Electromagnetic radiation can be divided into two categories. The first is ionizing radiation and includes x-rays, gamma rays, and nuclear radiation. Exposing our body to these highly reactive ions at certain levels can dramatically affect our atomic structure. Ionizing radiation can actually rip electrons from atoms and molecules and directly affect cell division and cell structure.>>
