Seeing is believing
0. 15 micro sievert per hour near my residence in soeks. I had an inflammatory eye in left and nose bleeding too. Three days ago experimental burning of 80 tonnes of radioactive debris took place for two days 60 kilometres away from my house.
Am I missing something here? Isn't that less than the average you'd expect solely from background radiation in Japan anyway?
ReplyDelete0.15 μSv/hr * 8760 hr/yr = 1.31 mSv/yr
ReplyDeleteThe AVERAGE exposure for humans around the world is 2.4 mSv/yr, nearly twice what you say you're getting. People in Ramsar in Iran average 260 mSv/yr.
Whatever's causing your problems, radiation isn't it. Stress could be a cause or contributing factor. Stressing out over completely safe levels of radiation is certainly not going to help you; it could even be the cause of what's ailing you.
Background radiation before this experimental incineration is 0.05
ReplyDeleteWe have several reports which say radiation index in Kokura is now around 0.2
In Fukuoka, 60 kilometres away from the incinerator it is 0.15
How can you be experiencing ill effects at HALF the average dose-rate of humans on Earth? If 0.15 μSv/hr is hurting you, people in Denver Colorado (0.9 μSv/hr) should be much worse off. But they're not; they're among the healthiest people in the USA.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, you should be looking for other causes. Have your serum cortisol level (an indicator for stress) checked. If stress-reduction techniques don't help the other symptoms, look for chemical issues. If there's a government conspiracy, using radiation to distract you from other things is far more likely than tiny levels of radiation causing health problems in Japan that it doesn't cause anywhere else.
Debris includes not only high level of radiation which is average 221 becquerels but also such harmful substances as asbestos, arsenic, hexavalent chromium and polychlorinated biphenyl. It is unknown for us to see how risky the burning of debris is.
ReplyDeleteExperimental..which has two meaning. One is if the burning do harm to environment and human, all news says there were no rise of radiation at any point. So the answer of this question is already fixed.
The other meaning is much more important. Residents must acquire some tolerance in their body by putting small amount of harmful substances as well as radioactive dust in order to prepare for the constant incineration over one year.
And also gives those who don't want to be exposed by any amount of negative factors the chance and time to move from the spot.
How much of these hazardous materials does typical garbage contain? How well does the typical incinerator destroy and/or contain these materials?
ReplyDeleteYou've shifted the claim from radioactives to all hazardous substances. You've also failed to give any data on how much of these substances escapes into the environment, versus that which is destroyed or captured in filters. Unless it escapes, it cannot have any effect on your health.
Asbestos is a family of fibrous silicates. Silicates can chemically combine with a host of other things to form non-fibrous products. That destroys (literally) the asbestos. Does that happen in an incinerator, or not?
I suggest that your problem is simply stated: you experience stress because of threats you do not fully understand and cannot easily dismiss. The threats may not be real, but the stress is.
I think you may find help with the Buddhists.
They only detected how much caesium 137 contains in garbage, no other nucleus, let alone other harmful substances. Incinerator with bug filter catches 64 per cent of caesium according to the survey. Because this incinerator was made only for use general combustible garbage, how it can effectively reduce the risk of other harmful materials are unknown. To transact garbage that contains those harmful ones, they use incinerators for industrial garbage, but this time not.
ReplyDeleteIt's not fair I shifted my claim, but it must be also true that my inflammation was caused by various factors - from my bad life habits to being exposed by bad air which might includes hazardous substances or perhaps hot particles.
I agree my worrisome is largely from my paranoiac thinking. I've been thinking about radiation fear which might be just one possibility out of millions of other causes.
