Radiation Heroes podcast
In this Energy Revolutions podcast David Toke talks to Dr Ian Fairlie about two scientists who were persecuted for uncovering dangerous radioactive truths
The first scientist to be discussed is Alice Stewart. She discovered that routine X-rays used on pregnant women were harming unborn babies. Initially, she was dismissed, derided, and forced to leave her job. Later her work was quietly recognised as being correct.
On the other hand, Yury Bandachevsky was jailed by the Government of Belarus for insisting on researching and publishing on the impact of the Chernobyl nuclear accident. See and listen to the podcast HERE.
CHECK OUT my forthcoming book 'Energy Revolutions - profiteering versus democracy' (Pluto Press). This book shows how we can move forward to an energy system powered by renewable energy. It reveals how selective public ownership and targeted interventions, as part of an energy democracy programme will protect consumer interests better than the chaotic energy supply system that failed consumers so expensively in the recent energy crisis. We want no more of that! You can read more details and make a pre-order HERE.
