Opposition to Highly Radioactive Liquid Shipments Continues
Modern ghost towns, abandoned houses, and far stretching roads lined with plastic bags of radioactive garbage have replaced the once bustling neighborhoods and cities of the Fukushima Prefecture. Formerly home to thousands, the massive release of radiation has forced residents to evacuate their beautiful homeland, leaving the land they love behind without knowing whether or not they may ever return without putting their lives at risk.
A 2.206 petition was submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) seeking action on the part of the NRC to either enforce existing regulations for atomic power plants or shut them down. This petition was submitted by seven electrical engineers employed by the NRC. These brave seven submitted the "put up or shut down" petition as private citizens.

Disproving what critics of the Linear No-Threshold (LNT) Risk Model have claimed and also disproving the theory of hormesis (that radiation doses are good for you), Ian Goddard has compiled solid research on the incidence of cancer in relationship to radioactive dose exposure. Goddard based his research on well established reports and peer reviewed data from the National Library of Medicine, and he shares this information in an easy to follow fashion in this video.Although the LNT model is favored by the National Academy of Science, the LNT model has been disputed by zeal
Marie Granmar, Charles Sacilotto and their young son invited Fair Companies to their “Naturhus” (or Nature House), their environmentally friendly house located just outside of Stockholm Sweden that's surrounded by 4-millimeter panes of glass. Withstanding average January temperatures around 27 degrees Fahrenheit, this house-within-a-greenhouse is kept warm by the sun throughout the day with residual heat stored in the bedrock below the house for cold winter nights. Rainwater is collected for household needs as well as for watering plants, and kitchen and garden waste is composted.
Knowledge is power. The Fairewinds Crew is committed to providing you with the most up to date, undistorted news about risks at atomic power plants. We believe that this year, 2015, marks the tipping point for our energy future.
The New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollution awarded Maggie and Arnie Gundersen, founders of Fairewinds Energy Education, a lifetime achievement award Saturday September 26 at its annual meeting. The Gundersens were recognized for their unceasing commitment to educate the public on nuclear power risk and hold the nuclear industry accountable on safety issues.
An ode to teachers and educators for their dedication and service, For the Love of Kids, was written by Fairewinds' chief engineer Arnie Gundersen, and is his nod to the hard work and commitment it takes to teach and make a difference in students' lives. The article, written and published in 2003, was requested by the National Education Association magazine, NEA Today.After being fired by Nuclear Energy Services in 1990 for notifying the company president of radiation safety violations and loss of control of radiation materials, Mr.
