Scientists Reveal Fukushima Doused Everyone on Earth With Radiation

• https://www.lewrockwell.com

When the crisis at the Fukushima power plant first began six years ago, there were legitimate fears that the radioactive particles spewing from the fuel rods could blanket the Earth. Since then the experts and the mainstream media have downplayed that possibility. Either they don't think it's possible, or they don't think it'll be significant. But recently, scientists in Norway have revealed that the radiation emitted from Fukushima really did have a global reach.

It's been over half a decade since Japan's Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear plant suffered a catastrophic meltdown due to the effects of a tsunami which struck the island nation, but scientists are only just now confirming its far-reaching effects. After conducting the first worldwide survey to measure the ultimate radiation exposure caused by the reactor meltdown, researchers at the Norwegian Institute for Air Research finally have a figure on exactly how much extra radiation humanity was exposed to.

According to the group's data, over 80 percent of the radiation that was released by the meltdown ended up in either the ocean or ice at the north and south poles. Of the remaining radiation, each human on the planet received roughly 0.1 millisievert, which equates to about "one extra X-ray each," according to the team.

Fortunately, that's not a whole lot of radiation. That's significantly less than the average amount of background radiation that most people receive in a year. The fact that we all received the equivalent of an x-ray isn't alarming. What is alarming, however, is the fact that Fukushima did this, and it did it to every man and woman and child on Earth.
