DESCRIPTION:A powerful exposé in the January 21 Rolling Stone magazine has
found that wastewater from many oil and gas wells is dangerously radioacti
ve. Nearby residents\, the local environment\, and especially oil and gas
industry employees may be exposed to toxic levels of radiation—but most pe
ople are totally unaware.\nPlease join us for a PSR webinar with Justin No
bel\, the reporter whose two-year investigation culminated in these explos
ive revelations.\nRegister now.\nMr. Nobel found\, through hundreds of int
erviews with scientists\, environmentalists\, regulators\, and workers\, “
a sweeping arc of [radioactive] contamination—oil-and-gas waste spilled\,
spread\, and dumped across America…”\nRadium is typically the most abundan
t radioactive substance in oil and gas wastewater\, and it is so dangerous
that it is subject to tight restrictions even at hazardous-waste sites. Y
et today\, radium-bearing wastewater\, as Mr. Nobel writes\, is transporte
d along America’s highways in unmarked trucks\; handled by workers who are
often misinformed and under protected\; leaked into waterways\; and store
d in dumps that are not equipped to contain the toxicity. [It] has even be
en used in commercial products sold at hardware stores and is spread on lo
cal roads as a de-icer.\nLearn more about this shocking public health thre

Please join us for a PSR webinar with Justin Nobel\, t
he reporter whose two-year investigation culminated in these explosive rev
elations.
Mr. Nobel found\, through hundre
ds of interviews with scientists\, environmentalists\, regulators\, and wo
rkers\, “a sweeping arc of [radioactive] contamination—oil-and-gas waste s
pilled\, spread\, and dumped across America…”

Radium is typically
the most abundant radioactive substance in oil and gas wastewater\, and it
is so dangerous that it is subject to tight restrictions even at hazardou
s-waste sites. Yet today\, radium-bearing wastewater\, as Mr. Nobel writes
\, is transported along America’s highways in unmarked trucks\; handled by
workers who are often misinformed and under protected\; leaked into water
ways\; and stored in dumps that are not equipped to contain the toxicity.
[It] has even been used in commercial products sold at hardware stores and
is spread on local roads as a de-icer.
