(28,661 posts)In the future... why not avoid the gish gallop and stick to a single point at a time. I'd be happy to provide whatever sources are needed if you keep it to single definable arguments.
What I write: Radiation from Fukushima is something serious to worry about, affecting directly everyone on earth.
What you write: Fukushima is nothing to worry about.
Nope. I never said that it was "nothing to worry about". I have said that the plutonium that scientists estimate was released by Fukushima is nothing for anyone outside of the immediate vicinity of the plant to worry about. And Fukushima (taken as a whole) is nothing seriously "affecting directly everyone on earth". But, of course, that's also what everyone outside of the lunatic fringe has been saying too. Why are you listening to them?
Let's move on to your sources:
You've posted this one multiple times and been corrected each time. You've never been able to defend it.
The report does not say that at all. It does show "Radionuclides from the Fukushima" (radiocesium and radioiodine), but all they said about plutonium was that it was "spent fuel of different origin than that of the Chernobyl accident". That doesn't tie it to Fukushima.
Also... look at the amount. Do you have any idea how ridiculously minuscule 44.5 nBq/m(3) is? A Bq is a single disintigration... and they're talking about .0000000445 of those in a cubic meter. That's one Bq per 20 million cubic meters. Heck... even Caldicott doesn't claim that can do anything.
Do you really want to rest on that as evidence for your point that Plutonium from Fukushima is health threat all around the world? Really?
Let's move on.
You've spammed this one too. I'm not sure how you think it supports any of your prior positions. This study was conducted prior to Fukushima and would necessarily involve the plutonium from prior weapons testing.
Frankly... sometimes I wonder whether you even read some of the stuff you spam as supposed evidence.

And now I have to wonder even more. What is this... just a copy/paste from an entirely unrelated post? It doesn't even deal with plutonium.
So, there's that to back up what I write.
And now we're back to pointing out that none of what you just posted actually "backs up" what you wrote.
You? I'll have to take your word on it.
Again... avoid the distractions and gallup and stick to a given topic and I'll be happy to give you links to relevant sources. Just stick to one topic at a time.
