Fukushima’s Cs-137 is NOT “Four Chernobyls” ! (Russia Today spreading misinformation)

Posted on May 25, 2012 by Michaël V.B.

I made a couple edits to my May 6, 2012 overview post, “One year later – Part 2: The Ongoing Fukushima Daiichi NPP Disaster.”. Reporting on the issue has been rather confusing. Earlier today I posted “Fukushima Already Released more … Continue reading →

One year later – Part 2: The Ongoing Fukushima Daiichi NPP Disaster.

Posted on March 6, 2012 by Michaël V.B.

March 2012. (For Part 1 (Earthquake & Tsunami), SEE HERE) (For additional sources on this topic, also see my page NUCLEAR NEWS LINKS, a sub-tab under the RADIOACTIVITY tab in the black top banner). For the latest news, I recommend ex-skf.blogspot.com. Fukushima-Daiichi NPP, likely the world’s worst nuclear … Continue reading →

Background Radiation DOSE & fallout deposits’ ACTIVITY… – What’s the calculation trick?

Posted on June 6, 2011 by Michaël V.B.

You know what I am truly curious about? How dose rates (in µSv/hr for instance) actually can be used, if at all, to gauge the dangers of deposited fallout (whose accurate details would be in activity (in Becquerel or Curie) per something, … Continue reading →

IODINE-131 a basic map comparison: Fukushima versus Chernobyl

Posted on May 26, 2011 by Michaël V.B.

Similarly to what I did to compare Chernobyl and Fukushima as far as the fallout maps for radioactive Cesium (137, 134) (SEE HERE for the radioactive Cesium maps and those comparison basics), what follows is a basic comparison for I-131′s … Continue reading →

FDA/EPA: “No Need TO TEST” Pacific fish for radioactivity. Or anything, really…

Posted on April 21, 2011 by Michaël V.B.

FDA obviously doesn’t WANT to do testing. Economic interests (Obama is a nuke dude, Alaska’s fisheries a major economic sector)? I don’t know man… I don’t know… It’s one thing for an agency to discover they’re totally not ready … Continue reading →

Above or Below “levels of concern”: USA vs. France

Posted on April 13, 2011 by Michaël V.B.
