  • Summary

  • Justin Nobel has spent seven years investigating the way the oil and gas industry deals with the enormous amount of waste products it produces. All of it is toxic but some of it is also radioactive. Lax regulation and legal loopholes expose workers and people living near the wells to levels of radiation far in excess of legal limits. Waste from the fracking process is dumped into watershed where it will become more radioactive over time as elements like radium and radon decay into daughter elements. His book is Petroleum 238.
