Don’t believe Fukushima hype

- “Natural” radiation far greater than from accident

- No harm *possible* to humans from tritium, a mildly radioactive H isotope

- Greenpeace fear-mongering hurts Japanese fishermen & the planet

Because science

Nuclear energy

- Has *saved* 2M lives

- Just ~200 deaths *total* from *all* nuclear accidents

- 5x more people die on streets of LA in one year

- Is *inherently* safest because nuclear fuel energy dense

*Fear* of nuclear, on other hand, is deadly

Nuclear facts

- Pollution from living in big city increases mortality 2.8x *more* than being Chernobyl clean-up worker

- Eating normal food = 200x more radiation than from Chernobyl

- Fear & panic — spread by @Greenpeace et al. — has resulted in death & suffering
HBO’s “Chernobyl” got everything wrong

- Radiation not contagious & didn’t kill that baby

- No “suicide squad”

- Helicopter crash 6 months after accident & unrelated to radiation

- Nuclear plants *can’t* go off like bombs

Anti-nuke propaganda kills
