Normal Radiation exposure... Are we ok?

According to this study, we need to be in a range of radiation exposure daily to have the "BioPositive" effect of radiation.  Read the article to understand why.

Since one uGy (migro Gray unit) is equivalent to 1 uSv (on micro Sievert). We can say that we need to be in the range of roughly 10 to 5000 uGy/year radiation level or 0.02 to 13.6 uSv/day to get the optimal effect.

According to health Canada data, the major Canadian cities are in average, in that range for uSv/day dose.

• Montreal : 0.44
• Ottawa: 0.40
• Toronto: 0.28
• St. John's : 0.68

Actually, we are a little bit on the low end of the graph. So we would need a bit more radiation to have an optimal effect.

What is the optimal effect ? LESS CANCER...

Green groups want to protect the public or something else?

According to this article, greens groups want to delay, block, foreclose nuclear power stations.

About two dozen environmental groups launched a volley of legal challenges at nuclear regulators on Thursday in an attempt to stall action to extend the operation of aging reactors and to delay construction of more advanced nuclear designs.

Every nuclear power station we shutdown, do not renew, delay, will create more coal and/or natural gas power stations, not more "renewable".

The numbers speak for themselves... more coal, gas, equal more deaths and more pollution.

So don't be fooled by the greens groups, they are not there to save lives or protect you.  Their agenda is more dark than green!

On top of all this, nuclear power stations is one of the only possibility we have now to power the world 7+ billions at a fixed monthly fee, regardless of the consumption.
