    The fact that you’re bringing up Japan (which is massively overblown - you’re at more radiation risk from a coal power plant) shows you’re not serious about this.

      I’m curious about the radiation risk from a coal power plant, are radioactive carbon isotopes generated in the coal firing process?

        Here’s an article - coal naturally contains trace amounts of radioactive elements and burning a bunch of it concentrates them.

      Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to ignorance. They probably really do care but have little formal education and also the algorithms have decided to send them to a particular bubble of the internet.
