Preface
When we were children and still living in our individual families, we did not understand the big problems of our world. Yet we often asked ourselves troubling questions:
Those and many similar questions were on our minds at that time, when I was a little boy and my wife was a little girl when we did not know anything about the big problems of the world. Deep in our hearts, however, we had the feeling that lots of things we were told were not true.
In spite of these questions the answers of which we are still looking for today we have never given up hope that everything would take a turn for the better.
In these times, it is therefore a matter of particular and deep concern to us to give you, dear readers, the informative know-how which can help you to survive a disaster we hope will never occur.
Concerning these pieces of advice we suppose that you will not get any help from authorities nor from doctors when the atomic radiation reaches a certain level so that you will have to act in your own responsibility for yourself and your beloved ones.
The following information has not been compiled to advertise a complicated kind of emergency shelter technology nor respiratory protective equipment or radiation suits, but to obtain the best kind of protection that can easily be realized by yourselves and your dear ones.
And this is why this book with the title
”What can we do when there is nuclear radiation because of an accident or war“
Guidebook without any unnecessary burden
was conceived.
The voice of your soul – deep inside yourself
and the wisdom of your heart may guide you and protect you.

Introduction
When talking to people, we have often realized that only few people are interested in problems that have to do with nuclear radiation. Apart from them, almost nobody knows what to do after a nuclear accident in an atomic power plant or after a worst disaster, not to speak of what to do after the explosion of an atomic weapon.
When asked that question, none of the concerned persons could answer in a reasonable way. But their lack of understanding made them feel scared. This was the reason why we have compiled relevant knowledge so that we can offer practical support for you to be able to help yourself.
This book has not been written for so-called experts, nor has it been written for soldiers, but for people like you and me.
The authors recommend the
“ GAIA association“
society for self-sufficient energy supply, technical innovations and altruism
GLOBAL ASSOCIATION FOR INDEPENDENT ENERGY & ALTRUISM
Altruism: This is a way of thinking and acting which is full of respect for others and which
makes a social contribution to the common good without an immediate benefit or profit.
The GAIA association does research work and together, on an open source basis, they
develop technologies for everybody to use independent energy which shall be available in the
near future in an easy and environmentally friendly way.
Only if there are a lot of people with this common interest and only if these technologies are freely
available for everyone, will these technologies have the chance of establishing themselves in our society.

1) The nuclear power plants all over the world
At the moment (as of July 2012), 433 nuclear power reactors are in operation, 63 are in the process of being built four of which are supposed to be connected to the grid before the end of 2012. 160 further reactor units are being planned at the moment. These figures are provided without any guarantee and are of no importance for the use of this book.
2) Other nuclear waste
Several nuclear submarines which have sunk and are now at the bottom of the sea represent a threatening danger on the long run which cannot be clearly estimated. In the same way, the high number of satellites which are equipped with reactors and/or with batteries operated by nuclear power are dangerous although nobody seems to be aware of it. In case one of them crashes and burns up when entering the atmosphere of the earth, radioactivity will also be released which will spread all over the earth. Last but not least, the terminal storage facilities and transports of fuel rods across towns and villages represent an aspect of danger for everybody which cannot be clearly estimated.
3) Nuclear tests from 1945 to 2009
Since 1945 which was the beginning of nuclear weapons, the following nuclear tests were carried out in countries all over the world and at different times. The numbers speak for themselves.
Following to these nuclear tests, fallout the amount of which cannot be estimated was released and probably spread across lots of parts of the earth because it was transported by the movements of the air.
4) Nuclear powers worldwide
A state is called a nuclear power if it possesses nuclear weapons and suitable facilities to carry them in case of their deployment. The official nuclear powers have drawn up the non-proliferation treaty, which contains the prohibition of proliferation of nuclear weapons, the duty of nuclear disarmament as well as the right of “using nuclear energy peacefully”. This treaty was signed by further 190 states. The de facto nuclear powers probably possess nuclear weapons, but they did not sign the non-proliferation treaty. In an emergency case at war, it cannot be assumed that the signing states will keep acting according to the non-proliferation treaty. The non official nuclear powers are supposed to possess nuclear weapons, but evidence for this fact has not been produced so far.
Official nuclear powers:
USA, Russia, United Kingdom of Great Britain, France, China
De facto nuclear powers:
Israel, India, Pakistan, North Korea
Not official and therefore without evidence:
Iran, Saudi Arabia
Former nuclear powers and countries with nuclear ambitions:
Egypt, Algeria, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Federal
