What you can do. Things Worse Than Nuclear Power. Environmentalist comparison of energy sources and risks - the take from you, edited by a couple MIT engineers. Q1: Would I get a lot of radiation if I lived around a nuclear power plant? We are surrounded by naturally occurring radiation. Americans get 100 times more radiation dose from coal plants. 200 times more from a cross-country flight, and about the same amount of exposure from eating just 1 banana a year. Q4: How safe is nuclear power? Nuclear ene...
