Radiation map in the USA

This is a map of the radiation in the USA as you can see up north the radation is high raging above 395 in 2012-2013 while down south its fairly low going as low as 210.

Natural Radiation

Natural radiation comes from cosmic rays from outer space and naturally occurring radioactive materials that exist in food, air and our natural habitat. Part of natural radiation received in daily life comes from space

Sun burns,cancer spots. Cancer etc

Artificial Radiation

Exposure in medical practice, mostly due to diagnostic x-rays, probably contributes the largest fraction of human's exposure to artificial radiation. Fallout of radioactive substances resulting from atmospheric nuclear weapon testing, luminous watches, ionization chambers, smoke detectors, etc.

Nuclear power generation is one of the sources of artificial radiation. During the operation of nuclear power stations, traces of radioactive gases or fluid will be discharged to the environment.

Radiation in the world

can also happen if a person is exposed to radiation through x-ray imaging, nuclear power, or fallout from nuclear weapons. If severe enough, radiation damage may cause cancer, birth defects, and other serious health problems

fatigue, weight loss, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, sweating, fever, headache with bleeding and complications affecting the digestive system, nervous system, heart, and lungs

Sun Radiation

At the top of the atmosphere sunlight is about 30% more intense, with more than three times the fraction of ultraviolet (UV), with most of the extra UV consisting of biologically-damaging shortwave ultraviolet
