Radioactively contaminated seafood and MAFF data

There is no safe dose of radiation. Exposure to radiation at any level can increase the risk of developing radiation-linked diseases like cancer. The way to minimise the risk is to minimise exposure to radiation as far as possible.

Whereas all living things have evolved in an environment that includes naturally occurring radiation (like that coming from the sun), we receive additional exposure from the fall-out from atomic bomb explosions and from the nuclear industry's accidents and daily deliberate pollution. Without the nuclear industry, these sources of radiation exposure would not exist. The nuclear industry is therefore responsible for threatening our health and, because of the long-lived nature of some its pollution, the health of future generations.
