Petroleum-238: Big Oil's Dangerous Secret and the Grassroots Fight to Stop It
Posted by Andy1917
Content: They've known for 100 years but haven't done a thing to stop it. It's the secret of the century. Author Justin Nobel, an award-winning science journalist, discusses the radioactivity brought to the surface in oil and gas production. He shows how the various pathways of contamination are posed to the public and communities, the environment, and perhaps most devastatingly, the industry's own workers. The book relies on oilfield workers, community activists, a century of academic research, an a trove of never-before released industry and government documents.
