Swimming In A Deadly Sea:
Awash In Radiation
Part Four

Although it cannot be seen, touched, felt or smelled,
radiation is a constant presence in our lives. Some of it
occurs naturally, like the cosmic rays that bombard us from
space or the ionizing radiation that comes from various
elements in the Earth's crust. But more and more, we are
being exposed to radiation that does not come from natural
sources, but rather is man-made. In large part, the man-made
radiation we encounter is the result of our employing it for
useful purposes. X-rays are used for medical diagnoses, radio waves
permit us to communicate over long distances; magnetic fields
are used in a vast array of applications ranging from operating
switches like the power door locks on an automobile to providing
highly detailed pictures of a tumor or diseased organ.
But in addition to these intentional exposures to various
forms of radiation, we are increasingly surrounded by sources
of collateral or unintended radiation exposure. High tension
power lines are generating electromagnetic fields that can
extend as far as a kilometer. Common household appliances such
as microwave ovens, toasters, washing machines and hair dryers
can generate surprisingly strong radiological emissions.
In a very real sense, we are swimming in a sea of radiation,
even though few of us know it.
Recently I sat down with noted energy expert Milton Copulos
to discuss the potential hazards that the public may face from
the radiation that has become so pervasive. In the final installment
of that interview, we discussed what individuals can do to protect
themselves against the hazards radiation exposure can pose.
