Take action now to safeguard radiation standards! Sierra Club made it easy for us to comment by the August 31 deadline. Thank you, Sierra Club!
Radiation protections have been honed for decades to keep up safer. New rules could put workers and the public at higher risk for contamination and increased cancers.

Tell the Nuclear Regulatory Commission: We Need Strong Radioactive Pollution Protections!
Now, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is asking for public comment on proposed changes in current radiation exposure standards that would open the door to exposing people and the environment to higher radiation. Tell NRC you oppose the proposed rule!
Radiation protections are undergoing a wholesale revision while the Manhattan Project 2.0 rages on.
Join next week to learn more, and make sure to submit your comments by August 31.

What happens when radiation protection standards are weakened? 🚨👇
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is currently working to overhaul long-standing radiation protection standards. Changes of this magnitude directly impact public health, families, and future generations—and the public comment deadline on August 31 is fast approaching.
Join us for Webinar 2: "In the Weeds" as leading experts break down the scientific, medical, and legal realities behind these proposed changes and show you how to take action.
🗓 When: Wednesday, August 19
⏰ Time: 8:00 – 9:30 PM Eastern (5:00 – 6:30 PM Pacific)
📍 Where: Virtual via Zoom
What We'll Cover:
Proposed NRC Changes: An overview of what’s on the table and the regulatory framework.
The Science & Health Impact: Cancer mortality studies, radiation risks, and effects on vulnerable populations (women, children, pregnant people, and nuclear workers).
Core Risk Models: Why concepts like ALARA and the Linear No-Threshold (LNT) model matter to community safety.
Effective Advocacy: Step-by-step guidance on writing and submitting an impactful public comment before the August 31 deadline.
Featured Speakers & Experts:
🔬 Yazan Alwadi, PhD – Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health
⚛️ Diane D’Arrigo – Radioactive Waste Project Director, Nuclear Information and Resource Services
🧪 Dr. Chanese Forte – Scientist in the Global Security Program (Environmental Toxicology & Epidemiology)
🎙 Cindy Folkers (Moderator) – Beyond Nuclear
