The post by Wobs on asbestos has reminded me to come back to this thread.There has been much unfounded nonsense written about supposed risks from nuclear power but the radiation around power stations and places like Sellafield are below the background levels found around the world.Where I live people are dying from lung cancers caused by exposure to Radon gas which is quite natural,not that I wish to inhale it on a daily basis thank you very much.But I would be safer living near a nuclear power plant than in the beautiful South of Ireland
