Many years ago, shortly after I left college, I was talking to some folks about nuclear power. I said that I was confident that engineers could design safe systems but that we would have to rely on government and industry to be far more competent and honest than they had ever been in order to use nuclear power without major accidents.

Ambient outside = 100 nanosieverts per hour
Soil exposed to rain water = 97 nanosieverts per hour
One of the major problems that could impact the global nuclear industry is a meltdown at a nuclear power plant. When the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan was destroyed by flooding following a tsunami in March of 2011, the shock of the accident reverberated around the world. Germany decided to retire all of its nuclear power reactors.
Ambient office = 93 nanosieverts per hour
Ambient outside = 87 nanosieverts per hour
Soil exposed to rain water = 87 nanosieverts per hour
