I love #PublicLibraries and #Saskatchewan is kinda awesome where all our libraries are one #library. Your branch does not have a book, but it is available in another city? You can request it, and it will get to you at your branch.
Plus they do so much more like providing computer and internet access, borrowing DVDs, #RegionalPark passes and #RadonGas detectors.
#Radon is a higher risk in #WesternCanada, so I borrowed a kit last winter. I was glad to find our risk is low.

LIVE: #WesternMiningActionNetwork in #Montreal
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews
November 14, 2024MONTREAL -- "The Western Mining Action Network is meeting today in Montreal, with speakers from the network's #IndigenousCaucus speaking on the #NuclearFuelChain, defending the water and land, and the rights stated in the United Nations Declaration on Indigenous Peoples [#UNDIP].
The Deadly Nuclear Fuel Chain
"#PetuucheGilbert, #AcomaPueblo, said there should be more concern over the #NuclearFuel chain, #radiation and #UraniumMining. The nuclear fuel chain includes the making of the #AtomicBomb, and the #NuclearWaste from #SpentFuelRods in #NuclearPowerPlants.
"In his homeland, in the Grants mining district in #NewMexico, the abandoned #UraniumMines are #radioactive hazards affecting the water, air and the animals on the ground.
"Nearby on the #NavajoNation, there are more than 500 abandoned uranium mines and there are massive #UraniumMill waste sites, where the ore was processed. These all emit #RadonGas. He pointed out that the #McArthurRiver, #KeyLakeUranium Mine and mill in northern #Saskatchewan, Canada is the world's largest uranium mine and mill.
"Petuuche said he believes that the cancers now that the people in his area are suffering from are a result of radioactivity. There was also the atomic bomb testing in Nevada. All of that radioactivity spread over the entire United States. #Downwinders breathing the radioactivity in the air are also radiation victims."

Phosphogypsum, a solid waste byproduct from processing phosphate ore to make chemical fertilizer, contains #radium, which decays to form #radongas. Both radium and radon are radioactive and can cause cancer. #Phosphogypsum can contain toxic #heavymetals and other carcinogens, such as #arsenic, #cadmium, #chromium, #lead, #mercury and #nickel

It's not just #Mercury that's going to be released when (not if) the #ArcticPermafrost melts -- and it's not just humans who will suffer the consequences!
Thawing #Arctic #permafrost could release #radioactive, #cancer-causing #radon

Got some seeds from the #NorthBattleford #PublicLibrary one of their awesome services. They even have a #RadonGas detector which I'll be borrowing to check levels in my house. #libraries are the best.
