A nuclear leakage or tactical nuclear weapon use in a limited war could cause immense and long-lasting ecological consequences beyond the direct site of exposure. We call upon all scientists to communicate the importance of the environmental impacts of such an event to all life forms on Earth, ...
Exposure to high levels of radiation can cause acute health effects like skin burns & radiation sickness. Radiation also affects living things by damaging the cells that make up the living organism.
Radioactive pollution is defined as a form of physical, nuclear pollution to living organisms and the environment (hydrosphere, lithosphere, and atmosphere) arising from exposure to the release of ionizing radiation from radioactive elements such as uranium. Such releases occur as a result of radio...

However, other types of ionizing radiation--x-rays, ultraviolet radiation from the sun, and alpha, beta, and gamma radiation emitted by radioactive isotopes--have the potential to harm the human body. Ionizing radiation has enough energy to remove one or more electrons from the atoms it hits...

Ionizing radiation emitted during the radioactive decay of radon and its progeny can induce a variety of cytogenetic effects that can be biologically damaging and result in an increased risk of carcinogenesis. Suggested effects produced as a result of alpha particle exposure from radon include ...
