“The number of children and grandchildren with cancer in their bones, with leukemia in their blood, or with poison in their lungs might seem statistically small to some, in comparison with natural health hazards. But this is not a natural health hazard—and it is not a statistical issue. The loss of even one human life, or the malformation of even one baby—who may be born long after we are gone—should be of concern to us all. Our children and grandchildren are not merely statistics toward which we can be indifferent.”

IAEA promotes hexacopter drone to measure radiation levels around Fukushima

FROM: ENFORMABLE NUCLEAR NEWS

Levels of contamination in and around the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant are continuing to rise since the March 11th nuclear disaster.  In the town of Marumori, officials measured 10 fallen cedar tree quills; the average cesium level was 26,684 becquerels per kilogram as of June 2012, but in 2013 measurements recorded some 42,759 becquerels per kilogram in fallen quills from the same area.
The International Atomic Agency revealed a new six-engine “hexacopter” drone this week, which is hoped will be used to monitor radiation levels around the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in areas too dangerous for humans to enter.
