It's not radioactive enough to matter.
I bet it's more about the toxic chemicals than the radiation...
ThanksThe link you provided indicates the level of radiation is negligible, so I'm not sure what your point is.
"very little radiation" is still too much.
Ask them about the radiation dose in banana-equivalent, then be less worried.
Even when they come from a burning radioactive material?
How about radiation? Could it not be a concern?
we're worse than radioactivity
Did i miss something or did they think high-energy radiation was not dangerous?
Aren’t they exposed to higher radiation?
