The half hour show will air on February 20th at 5:00 pm on Channel 8 and on February 24th at 9:00pm on Channel 19. Final Epidemiologic Study Toms River, New Jersey With the release of the final epidemiology study, we do not agree with all the conclusions. We believe much more research must be done to fully understand the scope of the environmental contamination here in Toms River, NJ. This is just another step in understanding what has happened. Independent researchers will be able to build on this preliminary report. As our scientific knowledge grows our understanding of environmental factors on cancer may become more apparent. We support further research into the Toms River Cancer Cluster. Highlights of the Epidemiologic Study Case-Control Study of Childhood Cancers in Dover Township Toms River, NJ

Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation B.1. Radiation Burns and Cancer Therapy Some of the harmful effects of ionizing radiation were apparent from the outset. Too much x-radiation caused recurrent reddening of the skin or loss of hair, hours or days later, often followed by painful radiation burns. By 1897, 69 cases of skin damage were reported. By 1902, hundreds of cases of x-ray injuries were documented. Surgery was often needed to repair the damage. In 1896, in Chicago, after painfully injuring his hand with x-rays, W. Grubbe [ ] decided to focus those same rays on a cancerous tumor, using lead to shield himself from unwanted exposure. His was the first recorded therapeutic use of such rays to shrink tumours. That same year, scientists in several other countries began using x-rays to treat cancer and to relieve arthritic pain. Gamma rays were found to be equally potent. In 1898, Becquerel carried a sealed tube of radium in his vest pocket. As a result, he got a nasty burn on his chest which ulcerated and left a scar. At about the same time, Marie Curie's hands suffered painful radiation burns after she handled a thin metal box containing a small tube of radium.

Radioactive Decay Products ... Section C: Nuclear Fission I. Introduction I.1. Rationale of the Study The most challenging environmental issues of today are those associated with the production and use of energy. Acid rain has damaged our lakes and forests, the greenhouse effect jeopardizes our climate and coastal cities, oil spills have fouled our oceans and shorelines, and radioactive contamination, on a large enough scale, has the potential to threaten the molecular basis of life. This report is intended to provide a general overview of the health and environmental issues posed by nuclear power. It is hoped that it will serve as a useful resource document for all parties in the ongoing energy debate by laying out the main concerns related to nuclear power in a balanced, technically sound and informative way. . . . back to Table of Contents Section A Section B Section C I.2.

Almost every home contains hazardous products, or products that can harm human health or the environment if improperly handled. They are products used in cleaning, home improvements, automobile maintenance, lawn and garden care, hobbies, and a variety of other tasks. Each year, thousands of people are injured by exposure or accident involving hazardous household products. Because of the dangers they pose, these products require special awareness, handling, and disposal. In order to protect health and environment, every consumer should know how to properly use, store, and dispose of hazardous household products. An extensive list of educational resources that can be downloaded from this site is provided below.
