    The 2015 World’s Worst Pollution Problems report is the tenth in an annual series published by Green Cross Switzerland and Pure Earth (formerly Blacksmith Institute). Over the past decade, this series identified and drew attention to the worst, and most dangerously polluted places on the planet, while documenting and quantifying the startling health and human impacts of this neglected problem. The “World’s Worst” series of reports has effectively raised global awareness about the extent and impacts of toxic pollution in low-and middle-income countries.

    World’s 10 most radioactive places – Fukushima is top
    – 10 Most Radioactive Places on Earth  Infinite Unknown 24 Sept 11 While the 2011 earthquake and worries surrounding Fukushima have brought the threat of radioactivity back into the public consciousness, many people still don’t realize that radioactive contamination is a worldwide danger. Radionuclides are in the top six toxic threats as listed in the 2010 report by The Blacksmith Institute, an NGO dedicated to tackling pollution. You might be surprised by the locations of some of the world’s most radioactive places — and thus the number of people living in fear of the effects radiation could have on them and their children.
