This is interesting... Traffic has never been higher at websites that display data from radiation monitoring stations. We list three such sites below.
One of the sites is an amateur effort anyone can participate in: Mineralab, a Prescott, Arizona, company that sells geiger counters, maintains radiationnetwork.com, “a nationwide grass roots effort to monitor the radiation in our environment.” The network collects data from private citizens nationwide who keep their geiger-counters running, with data uploading automatically to the website in real time.
I really want a gieger counter now. Figure they should be easy to pick up on ebay in about 6 months. :) The EPA's own monitoring system appears to be down: The Environmental Protection Agency’s RadNet system is designed to detect radiation from accidents like the Fukushima disaster in Japan and from foreign nuclear tests. It displays a map of the United States with monitoring stations highlighted. Click on one for a graphic representation of its data. Last night the graphs were displaying no data—in the wake of EPA’s revelation that radiation had been detected in rainwater. Above empty frames appeared the message, in bold: “To-date, levels recorded at this monitor have been thousands of times below any conservative level of concern.”
Censorship? Consider this view: (and make sure you click through to the various source links, including about deep water horizon - especially the present dolphin kill going on in the gulf...) The EPA has pulled 8 of its 18 radiation monitors in California, Oregon and Washington because (by implication) they are giving readings which seem too high... The EPA is considering drastically raising the amount of allowable radiation in food, water and the environment.
When things like this happen its worth asking yourself if this is one of those two times a day when the stuck clock is right. Three Sites Where You Can Monitor U.S. Radiation Levels - Jeff McMahon - The Ingenuity of the Commons - Forbes |
