The Pentagon is sending a Boeing Co. (BA) plane, equipped to detect radioactive “clouds” from nuclear tests, to sample air for radiation from the damaged Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan.
The WC-135W Constant Phoenix, a modified Boeing C-135, has equipment designed to collect particulates and whole-air samples, according to the U.S. Air Force. The craft, similar in size to a Boeing 707 airliner, usually is used for monitoring required by the 1963 Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, which prohibits above-ground nuclear weapons testing.
“I can confirm the WC-135 has deployed to the Pacific region,” said Major Chad Steffey, a spokesman for the Air Force, in an e-mail yesterday.www.bloomberg.com...

Killer Contamination Spreads Worldwide Without Opposition
(San Francisco) – Radioactive contamination equivalent to the Fukushima, Japan disaster in terms of the hated “Mushroom Cloud” Atomic Bombs is two thousand (2,000) 500 Kiloton Atomic Bombs.* Each 500kt Atomic Bomb is 33 times bigger than the American Bomb that destroyed Hiroshima on August 6, 1945

The amount of stars and flags on this obvious hoax do not speak well for the collective intelligence of ATS. Just sayin.

No offense, but some of you folks need a serious reality check. First and foremost, a radioactive cloud traveling thousands of miles isn't like a tropical cyclone, it doesn't build-up in strength nor maintain form as it travels. The cloud disperses and weakens the further it moves along, and by the time it reaches the United States it'll most likely represent no more of a radiation threat than flying at high altitude in a passenger jet. Second, look at all of the Atomic/H bomb testing we performed in our desert SW throughout WWII, the Korean War, and the Cold War. Even THAT never affected the general United States, and it originated within our own cotton picking country! What makes you think that a small radioactive release halfway around the world is going to do anything more? Chill out folks, and concentrate instead on helping out the people of Japan who are actually suffering as we speak.

Eventually, in some doses, the radiation will reach nearly every corner of the world. Exports and Imports will help make sure that all humans will eventually ingest some contaminated food - sooner or later.

This is a reality we must accept, understand, and adapt to as quickly as possible. As per long term effects, such as those across 1 or 2 generations, we have very little power over them..
Minimize your intake of food to a minimum necessary, select and store food that is not contaminated or at least there are less changes to be. Water and Air are an issue...not much to do about that.
The main effects of radiation on the human body (in low doses) are the metabolic changes, the way main nutrients are assimilated and deposited, and some DNA modifications. An incredibly strong immunity would be a good thing, as well as a well-balanced diet combined with periodical cleansing.
Even so, it's a simple matter of math, and eventually our children or theirs will have already modifications due to current or past radioactive events.

What you suggest isn't practical, no one is going to limit their food to what's absolutely necessary, and, since the world's goverments are lying to us about the amount of exposure, there's no way to know except through independent testing(which has of course been going on) what foods are contaminated, and by what. What people should do, is what I've done, is take spirulina and chlorella daily, since both protect the body from radiation and can flush radioisotpes out of the body(plus it's amazingly good for you anyway). This radiation cannot be avoided, and the japanese say 6-9 months before they can do something. that means, 6-9 more months of ever-increasing radioactive release. the entire globe will be affected, and everyone on it, to varying degrees.edit on 24-4-2011 by dragonseeker because: (no reason given)

Well, an example of minimizing food intake is also quality control. I find it very practical, since you can avoid to some degree food sources that are more likely to be contaminated than others. It's also a matter of physiological training - in the case of a contamination, food would become scarce. It takes time to adapt to smaller amounts, mostly essential food...when you're used with eating out every day...fast foods, restaurants, etc....
So I don't find things exclusive at all. Regardless of what governments say or not, taking control over what you TAKE IN is a simple choice and not impractical at all. This applies to food, knowledge, information, etc..
More so, which is also an important point, the LESS toxins we have in our body, the faster it is to flush out any incoming toxic agents. No daily amount of spirulina and chlorella would have helped in Chernobyl however.. So it depends on the type of contamination.
And of course, what I find to be practical may be entirely impractical for others, or vice-versa.
Good tip on the spirulina and chlorella, although kind of expensive. Some people may have to cut back on their junk food to be able to afford a high-dose of these miracle super foods..edit on 25-4-2011 by Danjya because: (no reason given)
