The upside down radiation protection
Creators
Description
Today, the radiation protection is in an illogical situation: even the greatest efforts to pass on a message that the actual ionizing radiations levels are without sanitary risks for the workers and the population will never convince the nuclear opponents, while the majority of population stays silent. The atmosphere relative to these questions is generally unhealthy because the words like radioactive, contamination or cancer create a subliminal feeling of fear for the public. A strong advantage in the information work is the openness. with this card one can remain on good terms with the public but one should never forget they must be well looked after. (N.C.)
