<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">I used to collect oddball pamphlets. One of my favourites was "Nuclear radiation and the farm", issued by the Canadian government. It had a lovely drawing on the cover showing
a worried "Farmer John" type looking over his fields to a scary sky with strange clouds. It told you what to do to protect yourself against nuclear bombs, which presumably were raining down fromSoviet missiles. It suggested how to quickly tape up your windows
and doors to keep the contaminated air and dust out, and even how to wash your cows afterwards. Sadly, the pamphlet has gone astray. Maybe someone will post a copy on Kijiji. John Jackson grew up on a sheep farm. Did they ever teach you, John, how to get
the strontium-90 out of those Suffolk sheep's wool? Could you knit a sweater that would sound, like, really totally awesome if you walked past a geiger counter - or even glow in the dark?

The accident at TEPCO’s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant raised many questions about emergency planning and the decisions made to keep people safe from radiation released during the accident. The Japanese people were familiar with the public dose limit
of 1 millisievert (mSv) per year, and understood it was keeping them safe. After the accident, they were confused when told it was fine to return home, even at a dose of potentially 20 mSv per year. What changed? This fact sheet explores the concept of dose
limits – what they are, what they are not, and their place during emergencies.<br>
