In the most ironic of updates, one British researcher has unveiled that the large radioactive plume generated by Russia’s destruction of British depleted uranium shells in Khmlenitsky earlier this year, in fact reached the UK in a big way.
Sputnik writes:
The graph in Fig 1 shows that the Uranium in air in South East England went up by about 600ng/cubic metre from particles released by the Khmelnitsky explosion. What does this mean? The mean size of a Uranium particle is below 1 micron. An individual inhales about 24 cubic metre a day. So, if the particles were there for a month, or 30 days we can average the lung intake as 0.432mg. Doesn’t sound much, does it? But it converts into 200 million particles per person in the area, and of course in the track of the plume in the UK. Not good, given the effects we found in Fallujah.
Well, isn’t that a memorable case of reaping what you sow?
