Thorium Nuclear Bomb Proliferation Risks
In an article at PhysOrg.com, nuclear energy specialists from four British universities suggest that, although thorium has been promoted as a superior fuel for future nuclear energy generation, it should not be regarded as inherently proliferation resistant.Production of 233U (through the irradiation of thorium-232) invariably produces small amounts of uranium-232 as an impurity, because of parasitic … Continue reading Thorium Nuclear Bomb Proliferation Risks
Dr. Caldicott MD; Radioactive Thorium Dangers, Half Life, Health Hazards
According to the EPA; "Thorium (chemical symbol Th) is a naturally-occurring radioactive metal found at very low levels in soil, rocks, and water. It has several different isotopes, both natural and man-made, all of which are radioactive. The most common form of thorium is thorium-232.Who discovered thorium?Thorium was discovered in 1828 by the Swedish chemist … Continue reading Dr. Caldicott MD; Radioactive Thorium Dangers, Half Life, Health Hazards
MSR Thorium Reactor Fort St. Vrain Power Station Experiment Failed
In the video above, Dr. Helen Caldicott MD interviews Dr. Arjun Makhijani (a plasma expert) who explains the downsides of the proposed MSR and LFTR thorium reactors and why renewable solar or other renewable energy sources such as wind, water, tides, geothermal and hydrogen will save money and save lives long term. http://ifyoulovethisplanet.org/?p=6100Contrary to the claims … Continue reading MSR Thorium Reactor Fort St. Vrain Power Station Experiment Failed
Hormesis; What Does Not Kill You, Is Good For You
According to Wikepedia; Hormesis (from Greek hórmēsis "rapid motion, eagerness," from ancient Greek hormáein "to set in motion, impel, urge on") is the term for generally favorable biological responses to low exposures to toxins and other stressors. A pollutant or toxin showing hormesis thus has the opposite effect in small doses as in large doses. … Continue reading Hormesis; What Does Not Kill You, Is Good For You
Radon Dangers; Hormesis Explored
NBC's Rossen Reports on the danger of RADON in schools and in your home.According to Wikipedia; "Radon ( /ˈreɪdɒn/ ray-don) is a chemical element with the atomic number 86, and is represented by the symbol Rn. It is a radioactive, colorless, odorless, tasteless noble gas, occurring naturally as the decay product of uranium or thorium. Its most stable isotope, 222Rn, has a half-life of 3.8 days. Radon is one of the densest substances … Continue reading Radon Dangers; Hormesis Explored
