At Fukushima there were no casualties from radiation and the huge sums spent in its wake were without justification. Bogus science has been used to establish an exaggerated safety regime that engages an army of experts and imposes costly working practices. But the biology of life evolved long ago to cope with the twin threats of oxygen and radiation  and modern medicine exploits the power of nuclear radiation to diagnose and cure disease that has contributed to a doubling of the human life span. Unfortunately many humans have forgotten that their place on Earth was won by studying and learning how to control and enjoy their environment. Instead  they have wantonly upset the delicate balance of the climate. Enough science was known in the twentieth century to have used nuclear energy significantly to reduce the climate problem and to provide enough cheap energy. However  at that time this freedom was curtailed by public fear and the related ill-digested obsession with the malignant use of nuclear energy in international affairs. Even now  proper evidence-based safety regulations and general education would free nuclear to be appreciated as the ideal environment-friendly source of cheap and plentiful energy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67931002273845,"sku":"ByrdShop_0956275648","price":99.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780956275646.jpg?v=1794211456","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/nuclear-is-for-life-9780956275646","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
