Demystifying nuclear power is taking a critical look at nuclear power generation, a manipulative industry with seedy ties to government entities such as the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in the United States and the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) in Japan. By uncovering nuclear industry lies, demystifying nuclear power reveals the danger of nuclear waste and radiation from atomic energy to people’s health and the environment worldwide. Growing solar and renewable energy technology is a cost effective, carbon-free solution for our energy future that provides safer and cleaner power production than nuclear energy.
Whether it's plastic, mercury, or radioactivity, the entire world has treated our planet’s oceans as its sewage dump. As if we need more proof that Radioactivity Knows No Borders, three recent events prove the reality of our statements…
Read MoreOur latest Nuclear Hotseat interview is a nuanced discussion detailing how Fairewinds and Dr. Kaltofen developed protocols used by the community-volunteer citizen-scientists who performed the data collection for the Woolsey Fire project…
Read MoreWe know how to help. We know how to set up a similar program to bring environmental oversight and analyses to needy communities. Now, as we approach the end of 2021, we reach out to each of you for support for Fairewinds Environmental Science Research…
Read MoreIt’s published! One of our findings is that the Woolsey Fire caused radiation from the Santa Susana Field Lab (SSFL) to become airborne and travel as far as 9 miles into surrounding communities. So, then, what makes our study unique? We are proud to announce the publication…
Read MoreA Japanese court has finally vindicated dozens of Japanese citizens suffering from radiation-related illnesses, who the Japanese government alleged lived too far from Nagasaki and Hiroshima to have been considered Hibakusha [victims of the two atomic bombs]…
Read MoreThe French and Chinese nuclear reactor Taishan Unit 1 is leaking radioactivity! Taishan Units 1 and 2 are also the first of their kind in China. Designed by Framatome Corporation in France, and now according to CNN, the reactors have created “an imminent radiological threat”…
Read MoreJust last week a new Chernobyl catastrophe reared its ugly head. As the neutron population in the melted atomic core increases, it indicates that a self-sustaining chain reaction may develop and might allow a whole new raft of radiation to foul the air…
Read MoreIn our ninth installment in our Nuclear Spring Series, I wanted to reflect on when Earth Day first became a thing in 1970 and share the latest Humanity Rising film about radiation exposure, especially because two well-known radiation biologists are part of the conversation…
Read MoreThe release of more than one million tons of radioactive water from Fukushima Dai-ichi into the Pacific was approved last week by the government of Japan. Claiming that these discharges would be harmless, Japan’s government said that TEPCO had no other alternative…
Read MoreIn Japanese, the words Kaku no Hizumi 核の歪み translate to Nuclear Distortion. For Arnie and me, Kaku no Hizumi 核の歪み / Nuclear Distortion is the absolute truth about the aftermath of Japan’s Fukushima Meltdowns – 10 Years After…
Read MoreIn this third installment we’ll share some newly discovered archival material about the 1979 meltdown at TMI. You may remember Fairewinds asserted that the meltdown at TMI was much worse than the NRC insistently portrays. These archival documents substantiate what we have always said…
Read MoreDid you know that there have been five nuclear meltdowns during the last 42 years, and all of them have happened during springtime? Fukushima Dai-ichi on March 11th (2011), Three Mile Island on March 28th (1979), and Chernobyl on April 28th (1986). Welcome to Fairewinds Nuclear Spring Series…
Read MoreAs we approach the 10th commemoration of Japan’s March 11, 2011, Fukushima Dai-ichi triple meltdowns, organizations around the globe, including environmental groups, nonprofits (like us), engineering and pronuclear organizations, and media organizations like Japan’s Nippon TV, will release new information.
Read MoreToday, as highlighted in a quick post-two-weeks ago, Fairewinds releases the data and links to the Journal of Environmental Engineering Science peer-reviewed article…
Read MoreFairewinds ongoing scientific research with Dr. Marco Kaltofen of WPI has been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication in the Journal of Environmental Engineering Science. As soon as the Journal of Environmental Engineering Science has an online preprint link available, Fairewinds will release details and a link to the publication…
Read MoreMany years ago, I woke up on a Sunday morning to find three State Police Bomb Squad cars andone truck pulling a bomb disposal trailer parked on the lot next door to our home in rural Connecticut. The heavily wooded lot next door did not have a house on it…
Read MoreI have never experienced so many people wearing protective masks on the Shinkansen high-speed train, as I did at the end of January 2020, when I traveled from northern Japan to the airport in Tokyo. The news of the coronavirus outbreak was just starting to dominate the media…
