« More than one in three wild boar in Germany are too radioactive to eat | Main | FDA Adds Alaska Salmon Testing To Radiation Monitoring Program »

Call your congressperson: Becquerel Awareness Day (B.A.D.) April 10

BECAUSE RADS ARE BAD TO EAT!

This Thursday, April 10, 2014, tell your congressperson that FDA must lower the amount of radiation allowed in our food and institute more robust food testing. Why?

The US limit for man-made radioactive cesium is the highest in the world: twelve times higher than Japan's. While FDA does test, they are not doing all that they can to ensure protection of the public, especially children, from man-made radiation. The ongoing nuclear catastrophe at Fukushima in Japan awakened concern about contamination in the US food supply, not just from Fukushima radiation, but from other sources as well. RSVP and invite others to the call in day.

To find your congresspeople, go here. Or call the Capitol Switchboard (202) 224-3121 and ask for them by name. Updates and talking points. See our press release. More

THANK YOU!
