Nachdem ich mich mal ein bisschen zum Thema elektronische Patientenakte eingelesen habe, haben meine Frau und ich für uns beide und unsere Kinder das Opt-Out eingereicht. Zu groß sind die Risiken, zu klein der Benefit dieser löchrigen Dropbox für PDF Dateien. #epa #epa_neindanke #epafail #epaablehnen #optout

So, before the #EPA stopped posting Beta radiation data, I would compare their readings to the ones from this website, which monitors radiation using private stations -- and it always correlated. I'm going back to keeping an eye on this, and also seeing if things have changed with #RadNet. I used to be able to download raw Beta data (and I work with data, so I know how to "read" it).

By using Beta radiation data (and higher energy Gamma data), I was able to track trouble at #WIPP before it was released publicly (and yes, some rads did get loose), and also #NorthKorean nuclear tests (again, before it was released to the public). And then #RadNet beta tracking went away -- allegedly because the air monitors were faulty? Ummm.... Sure they were.

#America's Notorious '#CancerAlley' Is Even More #Toxic Than We Thought
A new study finds levels of the #carcinogen ethylene oxide that are nine times higher than those estimated by the #EPA’s models.

"Since the 1980s, the 85-mile stretch of the #MississippiRiver that connects #NewOrleans and #BatonRouge, #Louisiana, has been known as “Cancer Alley.” The name stems from the fact that the area’s residents have a 95% greater chance of developing cancer than the average American. A big reason for this is the concentration of industrial facilities along the corridor — particularly #petrochemical manufacturing plants, many of which emit ethylene oxide, an extremely potent toxin that is considered a carcinogen by the Environmental Protection Agency and has been linked to breast and lung cancers."

"'I think the companies see this as a new way over a 10- or 20-year period to gradually lobby' the EPA 'to allow higher levels of pesticides in food,' said Charles Benbrook, an agricultural economist who has monitored pesticide regulation for decades. 'If they can convince regulators to not pay attention to animal studies, they have a very good chance of raising the allowable exposure levels.'"

Against the guidance of scientific advisory panels, the EPA is relying on industry-backed tests to relax regulations on #acephate, which has been linked to #neurodevelopmental disorders. “It’s exactly what we recommended against,” one panelist said.
