Radio interview: Fukushima contamination and health effects

Cindy Folkers of Beyond Nuclear and Kimberly Roberson of Fukushima Fallout Awareness Network (FFAN), a coalition of groups concerned about food contamination after the Fukushima fallout hit the U.S. last year, were interviewed on Political and Personal, on WDGR Central Vermont, Monday, October 1.  This interview follows the publishing of Roberson’s book Silence Deafening, Fukushima Fallout…A Mother’s Response earlier this year. Folkers and Roberson discuss the on-going accident in Japan, the inadequacy of health regulations and monitoring in both Japan and the U.S., and what concerned people can do to protect their families and prevent further contamination.
