There’s no safe level of radiation exposure.
Obama’s preparing for many generations of nukes.

We were just about to start getting back into the nuclear energy business ourselves after refraining from building any new nuclear reactors for decades.
Peter Bradford, Robert Alvarez, Erich Pica, and Dr. Jeffrey Patterson addressed Japan’s nuclear emergency with the media.
Fukushima has been but a minor inconvenience to nuclear energy advocates.
