Gap between ICRP and ECCR

Supposedly most of the Japanese don't know what kind of rationale for the safety of radiation exposure Japanese government and TEPCO are relying on. We need to correct comprehensive information about radioactive protection so that we can judge and take action properly.

ICRP is the abbreviation of International Commision on Radiological Protection. The association was established in 1951. At first, it was developed to ease the anxiety about radiation protection in the medical field, but it gradually became the organization that justify a certain level of radiation exposure to expand the usage of radiation except medical front.

So the data based on ICRP tend to be more optimistic.
