All values are relative and compared to each other only; and not with the safe rate. Thus, red does not mean any danger at all.

Did you know?

On your selected date, Canadian astronauts in International Space Station were exposed to radiation. #SavePlanetEarth

Are you going to do any of these activities?

Notes

Fortunately, you are not exposed to other types of radiations.

When you take a cross Canadian flight you're exposed to about 2 mrem of cosmic radiations!

Your lungs are exposed to about 10 mrem radiation when you take a chest x-ray.

When you take an abdominal CT scan, your stomach is exposed to approximately 1000 mrem radiation.

Hiking at more than 2000m above sea level (for example: Mount Lorne) can expose you to a daily cosmic radiation of about 0.230 mrem whereas at sea level (for example: in Vancouver) you are exposed to a daily radiation of just 0.082 mrem.

A person residing in the Northwest Territories is exposed to a daily radiation of about 0.383 mrem.
