Radon Information
In light of the current thread of how to find information, I ask this
question with some trepidation.
I am teaching a chemistry for non-majors course, and while I am the RSO at
my University (15 official days a year) I am not a HP. I have a simple
questions for you. What are the current thoughts on actual dangers of
radon in the home?
I understand there is a plenitude of sources but when you teach 5 classes,
conduct research and try to do the additional duties time is limited. Help
in this area would be greatly appreciated. Most text books discuss the
chemistry of radon and not the true potential danger to the gas and it's
daughters. Much of this class has a fear of radiation and radon and
irradiation of food are very negative high risk subjects for them.
