Description: English: Radiation Dose Chart by Randall Munroe as part of the webcomic xkcd. In response to concerns about the radioactivity released by the en:Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster:Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011, and to remedy what he described as "confusing" reporting on radiation levels in the media, Munroe created a chart of comparative radiation exposure levels. The chart was rapidly adopted by print and online journalists in several countries, including being linked to by online writers for The Guardian[1] and The New York Times.[2] As a result of requests for permission to reprint the chart and to translate it into Japanese, Munroe placed it in the public domain, but requested that his non-expert status should be clearly stated in any reprinting.[3] ↑ Monbiot, George (2011-03-21).
