Abstract	I hope that this outline of the radioactivity problems associated with nuclear power has answered some of your questions, and has explained some of the current controversy in this field. There is no real need for either radioactive pollution of the environment or for blackouts, so far as nuclear power is concerned. It is clear that by known technology, and for a very reasonable cost, we can essentially eliminate the radioactive pollution without impeding the development of the industry in any way. It is suggested, then, that we heed the admonition of all responsible authorities to minimize radiation exposure, and go about the business of doing what we know how to do as engineers. If we do that, the arguments as to how much radioactivity is "safe," and how many people may be harmed, will become truly academic, as there won't be enough radiation exposure to measure.
