Denuclearize or lose our species: Multigenerational effects of exposure to radiation

Denuclearize or lose our species:

Multigenerational effects of exposure to radiation

 

by Christopher Busby and Majia Nadesen

 

Atomic Test Veteran Children and Grandchildren affected by fathers’ exposures to internal radiation from Uranium and Plutonium at the test sites…

To hear it from Jim Stone, Fukushima poses no serious risk to civilization or to the survival of the human species. The idea is merely a profit-making myth.

“Fukushima was bad, but it is Japan’s problem. All the stories about the Pacific dying are bold faced lies spewed for ratings to generate ad revenue. You still cannot go into many of the nuclear testing zones in Russia because it is too radioactive.

“America was more careful, and does not have similar problems. The 30 KM radius around Fukushima (which extends out 100 km to the North) is Japan’s equivalent of Russia’s old testing zone, which is a big disaster for Japan. But as far as the rest of the world? It is meaningless and will stay that way no matter what happens at Fuku.”

The problem is that real experts on radiation and health, such as Christopher Busby, internationally acclaimed expert on precisely this subject, and Majia Nadesen, who has just published a book about Fukushima, have a very different story for us–one with ominous implications for the future.

New research has disclosed that exposure to radiation turns out to have cross-generational DNA effects that current regulations and policies do not reflect, which was not the result that was expected; and that, if we continue to rely upon nuclear weapons and nuclear energy, the survival of the species is in jeopardy, after all. Read and weep.
 

New Study questions Japanese data underpinning current radiation risk model

by Christopher Busby

 

The results of a study of the health of children and grandchildren of British servicemen stationed at the atomic weapons test sites at Maralinga in Australia and Christmas Island in the Pacific will be published in the open peer-reviewed journal Epidemiology this week. Christopher Busby and Mireille Escande de Messieres conducted a case-control and cohort study of 605 children and 749 grandchildren of members of the British Nuclear Test Veterans Association (BNTVA) and compared congenital defects and cancer incidence with 311 control children and 498 control grandchildren of age-matched individuals. Results showed that, compared with controls:

1.    There was three times the number (105) of miscarriages in wives of veterans.

2.    There was 9.7 times adverse congenital conditions (57) in veteran children.

3.    There was 8.4 times adverse congenital conditions (46) veteran grandchildren.

4.    These rates were confirmed also by comparison with national EUROCAT data.

5.    The existence of the same highly statistically significant rate in both generations points to genomic instability as likely cause, a trans-generational genomic switch discovered after Chernobyl and shown in animal studies to affect many generations.

6.    The cause is argued to be Uranium, the main atom bomb constituent, which rained out at the test sites as sub micron particles in “black rain”. Recent research shows Uranium causes genomic effects at very low radiation doses because it binds to DNA and amplifies the radiation damage both through proximity and in other ways.

7.    Black rain of Uranium was also a feature of the Hiroshima Atomic bomb and Uranium has been measured several kilometers from the Hiroshima epicenter. The authors re-analyse adverse birth outcome rates in the official Hiroshima database and show that rates in the control groups defined in the study as “zero dose” have twice the rate than all Japan for the post A-bomb period.

8.    The Ministry of Defence, in arguing recent court cases rely upon the fact that dosimeters at the test sites show low doses. However these devices do not register Uranium or other alpha emitters. Uranium was not looked for at the sites.

9.    The study findings are supported by similar genomic effects found in Iraq populations exposed to Depleted Uranium particles (e.g. Fallujah sex-ratio, cancer and birth defects), USA and UK Gulf veterans, Uranium miners and workers and Navajo and other local populations living near Uranium waste tailings. All of these groups show chromosome defects consistent with their exposures to Uranium.

Speaking from Riga, Latvia, Dr Busby remarks: This multi-generational effect is an unexpected finding. There are implications for the current radiation risk models which legally underpin all nuclear power development and also the use of radioactive weapons. Although weakly radioactive, when ingested and inhaled Uranium has properties which enable it to directly damage DNA in ways that are not incorporated into current legislation. Uranium was not measured at the test sites and is not routinely measured near nuclear sites or in the environments either.

Fukushima: Dispossession or Denuclearization?

by Majia Nadesen

 

We pose the question starkly: Humanity must choose between denuclearization or dispossession…

We document that nuclear power and weapons are connected and their complex fundamentally dispossesses citizens of liberal guarantees, including rights to property, free speech, and the pursuit of happiness.

We explore crisis management of the Fukushima disaster to demonstrate dispossession of rights of property, free speech, and the pursuit of happiness, through examples that include lost livelihoods and Fukushima children’s rising rates of thyroid cancer, among other topics: See Oiwa, Yuri (2014, August 24), Thyroid cancer diagnosed in 104 young people in Fukushima. The Asahi Shimbun,

We examine the history of radiation health effects to demonstrate historical conflicts between nuclear industry safety-guidelines and scientific studies of the biological effects of “internal emitters,” which are ingested and/or inhaled radionuclides.

We describe distortions in nuclear industry safety models deriving from invalid modeling techniques.

We demonstrate that nuclear power is market distorting because it externalizes its true costs and relies extensively on generous government subsidies.

We show that governments too often prioritize nuclear interests over democratic principles and practices: For example, we investigate media and popular resistance within Japan to the newly passed “state secrets” law, which is seen by many as directly threatening free speech and public health: See Toshihiro Okuyama and Hiroo Sunaoshi (2013, December 17) State secrets law raises concern about safety of nuclear power plants. The Asahi Shimbun,

We disclose strong public support in Japan and elsewhere for decentralized alternative energy production and we describe oligarchic energy industries’ efforts to maintain centralized control when challenged by the decentralizing production tendencies of alternative energy, such as solar: See Ex-Japanese PM on How Fukushima Meltdown was Worse than Chernobyl and Why He Now Opposes Nuclear Power. (2014, March 11). Democracy Now.

We are concerned that in the absence of public activism the choices made by governments and industry will prioritize short term profits and vested interests. “Dispossession” is the cumulative effect of these decision criteria in action.

Nuclear remains seductive in our Hobbesian world of vying nation-states, despite myriad acknowledged hazards, including aging and decaying infrastructures, recurrent nuclear “accidents,” unceasing contamination, and terrorism. Nuclear seduces even when its effluents threaten the ecosystem and, perhaps, even the human genome.

 Fukushima Steaming? August 13 2014

Vested nuclear interests reign, but democracy is not yet vanquished. We see public demand for systematic denuclearization as critical for long-term human sustainability. The time for political action wanes as scientists predict nuclear power plant accidents will occur with regular frequency: See Severe nuclear reactor accidents likely every 10 to 20 years, European study suggests (2012, May 22). Max-Planck-Gesellschaft

Mikhail Gorbachev noted in his Memoirs that prior to the Chernobyl disaster there had been 151 significant radiation leaks at nuclear power plants around the world.[i] He warned that one or two more accidents would produce contamination far worse than after a nuclear war.[ii] With Fukushima we are living in a highly contaminated age as research subjects with no options to discontinue the experiment.

Change in energy policy is necessary for human sustainability. If we do not denuclearize, we are going to be dispossessed.

WHO WE ARE

 We are a diverse group of scholars living on four continents. What unites us is our vision for a sustainable future based in decentralized, sustainable energy.

Fukushima Radiation, Mutation and Birth Defects in the USA

Fukushima Radiation, Mutation and Birth Defects in the USA

Mysterious Birth Defects Cluster in Washington and Hawaii

by Jeanice Barcelo

 

Anecdotal evidence clearly indicates that birth defects are on the rise in Hawaii and Washington State. It seems obvious -- at least to me -- that these birth defects correlate with radiation poisoning. Yet "experts" can't seem to put the pieces of the puzzle together and many residents are in complete denial as well. Why?

Why are we refusing to look at The Truth? Shouldn't the "experts" be doing whatever they can to clean up the environment and warn parents about the dangers of radioactive poisons? How about teaching people how to detox their bodies and their soil from radioactive contamination?

The pain involved in giving birth to a child with birth defects is unmeasurable. And that pain is as much for the parents as it is for the child.

It's time for a revolution in this country. Since they are all refusing to do the right thing, all levels of government need to be extinguished.

Source Article by J. D. Heyes:
Surge in babies born without brains in Washington State

"There is something seriously wrong in the fertile Yakima Valley region of Washington. A surging number of babies are being born with major birth defects, and the reasons why are eluding state health officials.

As reported by CNN, a nurse in the area, Sara Barron, was the first to report on a particularly horrifying condition: anencephaly -- a condition in which babies are born without much of their brain and skull.

"I was just stunned," she told the network in an interview. "Three in a couple-of-month period of time... that’s unheard of, and they have such tragic, terrible outcomes."

Her shocking finding and report eventually prompted an investigation by the state health department. Investigators found some disturbing results.

Over a three-year period, there were 23 cases concentrated in three southern Washington counties -- Yakima, Benton and Franklin. That’s a rate (8.4 per 10,000 live births) that is four times the national average (2.1 per 10,000 live births), CNN reported.

What could be causing such a phenomenon? Is it just one of those weird coincidences, or is something more sinister at play?

Mandy Stahre, with the Washington State Department of Health, conducted the investigation into the high rates of anencephaly. She says she and other investigators are stumped.

"We have not found an answer, and that’s a very frustrating part, because this is such a devastating diagnosis for a woman to have," she told CNN.

Barron, however, says she wonders if state health authorities did not find anything because they didn’t look hard enough at all possible causes.

’We have to weigh how invasive we want to be’

For one thing, she said, the health department has not spoken to any of the parents of the babies who had birth defects. So they don’t know what the parents may have eaten, or what environmental conditions they have been exposed to, or what kind of chemicals or substances they all might have come in contact with -- like, perhaps, the pesticides that are routinely sprayed in the heavily agricultural region in which they live.

Andrea Jackman, whose daughter Olivia was born with spina bifida, another type of neural tube defect, said she wasn’t asked anything by state investigators.

"Nobody’s asked me anything," she told the network.

So, exactly how did the state conduct its investigation? Stahre said investigators examined data in each parent’s medical record -- what sort of prescription drugs they were taking and preexisting medical conditions.

"The study examined medical records from January 2010 through January 2013 and looked at possible risk factors including family history, pre-pregnancy weight, health risk behaviors such as supplemental folic acid and medication use, and whether the woman’s residence received drinking water from a public or private source. No significant differences were found when comparing cases of anencephaly with healthy births in the three county area," said a health department press release.

"But medical records don’t have details about diet or pesticide exposure," CNN’s Elizabeth Cohen reported, "two key considerations for this type of birth defect."

Indeed, the health department -- in its press release -- even admitted: "Medical record reviews might not have captured all information, preventing a cause from being identified."

So why not talk to the mothers?

"Well, we have to weigh that," said Stahre. "This is a devastating diagnosis, and we know that for a lot of these women, they had to make some hard choices. We do have to weigh about how invasive we want to be with these types of reviews."

Engineered end of humanity?

At least one mother -- Jackman -- said she would have "been fine" with being questioned. She wants answers so that other mothers don't have to go through the same thing.

On the surface, this looks like yet another example of poisoning that Natural News editor and founder Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, wrote about recently when he said humanity doesn't stand a chance of surviving this onslaught of corporate-sponsored genocide:

After having now analyzed over 1,000 foods, superfoods, vitamins, junk foods and popular beverages for heavy metals and other substances at the Natural News Forensic Food Labs, I have arrived at a conclusion so alarming and urgent that it can only be stated bluntly.

Based on what I am seeing via atomic spectroscopy analysis of all the dietary substances people are consuming on a daily basis, I must now announce that the battle for humanity is nearly lost. The food supply appears to be intentionally designed to end human life rather than nourish it.

Aloha Governor, Legislators, Health & Ag Depts.

I wanted to pass on this update on one of the five Kaua'i infants, (that I know of, - plus two more on Maui) born with their intestines outside of their bodies. (gastroschisis) These babies will have to undergo many surgeries to correct the problem. Five of these cases are too many for a small island. Something is wrong - a state of emergency should be declared.

These young families have had to leave Hawai'i for care they can't get here. Alone in a strange land dealing with life threatening emergencies to their babies, with little family support - through no fault of their own.

You may want to look away and not believe it - but there are many credible studies linking this horrendous injustice that is happening on Kaua'i, right now... to atrazine and a witches brew of toxic chemicals sprayed on Kaua'i almost daily. And this is not even mentioning the many reports of seizures, birth defects, (THAT OUR HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAS FAILED TO TRACK for nearly ten years!) ...and the cancers.

This is just ONE true story of what our legislature is ALLOWING to happen. It's as sickening as it is insane. We are monsters - if we do nothing, and look the other way.

I can't begin to tell you how sad and angry this photo makes me feel. What is happening to the people of Kaua'i, (Molokai, Maui, & O'ahu) is inhumane.
Shame on us if we do not DEMAND some answers from our 'leaders'…

Fukushima Spring: 50% Genetic Damage found at Trader Joe’s

 

by Christina Consolo

 

Perusing the floral section in the supermarket is usually the first thing on my grocery list these days. For the past 3 years I have documented genetic damage not only plants growing locally in SE Michigan, but in domestic and imported plants, fruits, and produce being sold to the public. Some of my best finds have come from items grown along the Pacific Coast, and this week a recent shipment of spring bouquets and potted plants at Trader Joe’s proved the same is still happening, as I suspected it would.

First, I comb through the bouquets, camera in hand. I look at the most obvious part of the plant, the flower head including petals and center. If I can spot a mutation, I check the stem and related leaves included. I look for color anomalies as well, as we know from past research mutations in color genes is another known effect of exposure.

During normal plant growth, the cells are self-organizing and grow in a symmetric pattern, following the Fibonacci Sequence of phyllotaxis. Phyllotaxis is the study of fractions and spirals in plants, which includes fruit and flower number, divergence angles, and petal numbers and formation. This pattern allows the plant to use the least amount of energy needed for amazingly rapid growth to maturity. Once the plant has reached it’s full potential, the perfect geometry of a plant allows it to absorb the sun’s rays and collect rainwater as efficiently as possible, channeling it to the stem for nourishment. Plato, Fibonacci, and Johanes Kepler all made contributions to the discovery and application of the Golden Ratio in nature. It appears in many aspects of our everyday world, including hurricanes, ram horns, spider webs, and snail shells, and even in the arrangement of our facial features. Also, take a look at our galaxy from above…we live in a Fibonacci Sequence. Our world is filled with many mysteries that scientists and mathematicians alike are working to figure out if this was just a coincidence, or something else. For whatever reason, it’s how normal plants grow, and it is also how we distinguish the normal from the mutated.

Damage to the DNA of the plant cells will disrupt this geometric growth pattern, leading to any number of mutational expressions such as conjoining, fasciation, gigantism, albinism, or other anomalies. These are known effects from decades of experimentation and research in areas of previous radioactive contamination, such as the areas around the Chernobyl accident and Three Mile Island.

After sorting through bouquets, I move on to the potted plants. Gerbera Daisies in the past have yielded a surprising number of mutations in flower heads, stems, and leaves, and this week was no different. I suspect this is because they are closely related to Sunflowers, or Helianthus annuus , which are notorious for their ability to remove radioactive Cesium from soil. This particular batch of Gerberas came from British Colombia, Canada. The domesticated cultivars are mostly a result of a cross between Gerbera jamesonii and another South African species Gerbera viridifolia.  


 It is the fifth most used cut flower in the world (after rose, carnation, chrysanthemum, and tulip). It is also used as a model organism in studying flower formation. Out of 18 potted Gerbera’s on this particular day at Trader Joe’s, more than half of the plants had some obvious evidence of mutation in just the blooms alone. I would venture to bet that if walked into your local Trader Joe’s today and looked carefully at their Gerbera Daisies, that you would have similar findings. If you do, please takes some pictures and share them with us on our new Mutation Map Project. Their colorful beauty also makes them a favorite eye-catching post for people sharing mutation images on social media, and increasing the awareness of genetic damage that is occurring.

I also found mutations in one of my favorite flowers, the perennial desert Sun Star, or Ornithogalum Dubium (which I purchased, and which now sits on my desk). This particular batch was imported from Monrovia, California, where Trader Joe’s also receives much of its vegetables supply including lettuce, kale, celery, and asparagus. They also source these same items from Mexico, which is the only produce I will buy from their store. I would prefer to get mine from Chile or Argentina, but I would have to go to a different store for that, and on this particular day I didn’t have the time, as my main concern was securing a few bottles of their Salsa Verde, which happens to be phenomenal.

Nature does geometry precisely and efficiently and without much effort, unless genetic damage interferes with the expression of its growth patterns. Considering that Cesium and other man-made toxic isotopes have been found  in US soil, including the Emerald Triangle of Humboldt County — where a large proportion of Medicinal Marijuana is grown – this is quite concerning. Not just for people who are eating produce from the west coast, but for those who are already sick and may be using cannabis to treat severe medical conditions, including cancer.

Using the Precautionary Principle we can further surmise, if you actually care about what you eat and what you feed your family, that unless food is being specifically and rigorously tested for radioactive contamination, any food grown here must be considered suspect, and that is especially true if this food will be eaten by pregnant women, children, or people who are already sick and immune-compromised. As of right now, the only food being checked is by individuals and independent evaluation without any help from our government agencies, although this has always been the purpose of their existence. Instead, they have become gate-keepers of damaging corporate-controlled science, and the gates remain currently closed to evidence or concern about food chain contamination from radioactive fallout. Even a Canadian high school student was able to recently prove in an award-winning science fair project, that Canadian grocery stores are selling contaminated produce to unsuspecting consumers. She will be attending the Canadian Nationals next month in Windsor Ontario to showcase her research. This may become one of the most important high school science fair projects in history, considering the  global implications of nuclear fallout working its way through our food chain.

Over the past 3 years we have been collecting images of mutations in the news, as well as images taken by observant and curious volunteers. We have currently 1340 images in our archive, which will be placed on a map created at Climate Viewer News to track these finds, and more easily correlate their occurrence with weather patterns, and nuclear facilities across the country. In addition to plants we have received images of seeds, squirrels, moths, butterflies, pillbugs, spiders, and birds exhibiting color disruption (mainly albinism) and other curiosities. The images can also be saved and shared by scientists and grad students who undoubtably will be reporting on this as the years progress. At least 2 grad students have already sourced images from this collection to write their final thesis.

To access the map and upload images of your own, go here: https://climateviewer.com/report/reports/view/4

Currently I have placed one beta test image of a Purple Coneflower (Echinacea) with fasciation on the Mutation Map as an example. The rest of our archive will be uploaded in the coming weeks and months, as time allows.

We also encourage people to use their full name if they wish to receive credit if their image is used elsewhere, such as in a scientific journal, lecture, or publication. Out of 1340 submissions so far, only 2 people insisted on keeping their name private.

To see some of this collection you may also visit Mutation Watch on Facebook, which has been our current mode of collection. We will continue to administrate this page as well as the map, and encourage people to share these images on social media. Unfortunately the number of submissions during the growing season was in excess of 10 a day in 2013, and in the interest of time-management and helping keep RadChick’s sanity intact, Jim Lee volunteered to create this crowd-sourced data map to significantly decrease the amount of labelling and archiving that needs to be done, and to properly categorize the enormous amount of submissions in a format that is easily accessible. Please consider contributing news reports as well, such as the recent stories of conjoined grey whale calves in Baja, and news of the horrific rise in mutations occurring  in babies born in South Africa.

Being a resident of Michigan after a long winter, the promise of warmer weather and springtime flowers is a welcome change, although these changes in our environment certainly are not. If mutations are happening in the DNA of plants, it’s happening in the people, too. For every mutation that is visible, there are 10 more that are not, but will express theselves in future generations. We continue to search for labs or individuals with the proper equipment to test these specimens, to determine whether this is primarily radioactive fallout, chemical interference, or a synergistic effect of both. But unless you have access to equipment priced at hundreds of thousands of dollars, accurate testing will be impossible. Even world-renowned animal and plant geneticists who have done extensive studies on the Chernobyl mutations have told me “Good luck getting these plants tested” as the quarantine of information on Fukushima Fallout has spread like a silent, unwanted plague, and government scientists seem to be most infected. 

Testing of individual specimens may or may not yield hard incontrovertible data, as the plant DNA may have been affected from gamma or beta radiation lying around in soil in close proximity to the plant, and not necessarily uptake into the plant structure itself. At any rate, we will keep collecting these images, and continue our search for mutations, as well as finding honest scientists that can assist us in figuring out what has happened to our biosphere to cause this, at what it means for future generations. This is one way to be part of the solution, as we search for ways to mitigate the radioactive fallout from the Fukushima accident, and other nuclear problems.

*Note from RC: I do not wish to single out Trader Joe’s as the sole source of selling mutated plants, as I have checked out numerous other grocery chains all with the same findings…mutated flowers being sold in stores is widespread, and has been confirmed by other researchers in multiple states and locations. However, I have had numerous conversations with the managers at Trader Joe’s including corporate management, and each time I have been met with contempt and disregard for trying to approach them on this subject, even when showing them obvious mutations in produce they are selling, such as celery and fruits, and radiation burns on apples from Washington State. The same has occurred when inquiring about the testing of fish and seaweed products, until fall of last year, when their rhetoric changed but appeared to be heavily censored. At that time, I was told Trader Joe’s is now testing all seafood products, and “Everything is fine”… although further questioning about how this was being conducted, at what part of the distribution process, and with what instrumentation could not be answered. Neither could any data by any type of isotopic analysis, which should be public knowledge in my opinion, or at least shared when specific inquiries are made. I have given them ample opportunity for addressing these issues and they continue to minimize and deny any and all concerns about the safety of the food they are selling in regards to this issue. In discussions with the management of other grocery chains I have been met with far more concern, and often a candid and honest discussion of how to implement widespread food testing without adding further to costs of food distribution. I know this is being thoroughly investigated at least at one large grocery chain, and I hope to see this (for now nameless) grocer implement widespread testing soon, and do so publically. In time, I expect this type of testing will become mandatory, as more people become aware of this situation and demand that it be done, because this issue is not going to go away in our lifetimes.  Unfortunately we may be years away from that type of transparency, and the contamination issues have now been continuous since March of 2011. It also reasons to follow if any large chain implements a radiation testing protocol, that other stores will follow suit, as the competition in grocery chains is fierce in the effort to find, keep and maintain its consumer base.

Stay ahead of the rads on the RadChick Radiation Research and Mitigation page.

Please help us grow our Mutation Map ~ It is the first of its kind ever created, and will be an important future reference for scientists, geneticists, researchers, and inquisitive plant and planet-loving people alike. Eventually we hope to include mutation images from Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, Rocketdyne/Simi Valley, and Hanford.
