Cost Increasing Results of Accepting the Linear No Threshold (LNT) Assumption of Radiation Health Effects by Rod Adams

"On September 26, 2010, I posted an article titled Radiation Hormesis - A Profound Truth That Might Induce a Few More Converts to Support Nuclear Energy in which I described how Lawrence Solomon of Energy Probe had been convinced by science that the low levels of radiation associated with nuclear power plant operation and uranium mining are not high enough to cause negative health effects in humans. Charles Sanders wrote the book Radiation Hormesis and the Linear-No-Threshold Assumption that included enough peer reviewed science to convince a long time skeptic about nuclear energy."
