The Journal Environmental Science & Technology – published by the American Chemical Society – reported last year that airborne levels of radioactive cesium were raised by 100 to 1,000 times (what scientists describe as two to three “orders of magnitude“):
Before the FDNPP accident, average 137Cs levels were typically of 1 ?Bq m−3 in Central Europe and lower average values (<0.3 ?Bq m−3) were characteristic of northern, western and southern Europe.
During the passage of contaminated air masses from Fukushima, airborne 137Cs levels were globally enhanced by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude. Indeed, even hot particles and nuclear core fragments from Fukushima were found to have traveled all the way to Europe.
So as it turns out again, we were right to eparanoid about the amount of radiation hitting us from Fukushima. The government, the media lied to us… again. You cant count on them when things go bad for nothing. They decieve you for every reason but your safety.
