While many—including scientists—tout nuclear energy as a safe, clean alternative to fossil fuels, hidden risks, health threats, and radiation impacts say otherwise.
Stopping climate chaos is top of mind today for not only environmentalists, but anyone worried about recurring climate disasters. Most people understand the role of fossil fuels in global warming and work to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions produced by burning them.
Primary solutions involve transitioning to renewable energy such as solar, wind, and geothermal, but some—including scientists, promote nuclear energy as a safe alternative. However, if the multiple hazards of this technology were known, they wouldn’t be so eager to embrace it. Even scientists are ignorant of the worst consequences of nuclear energy.
On the positive side, some surprising unknowns are helping us, but first let’s examine the major hazards.
Major Hazards
The radioactive waste problem
As of 2021, there were about 370,000 tons of high-level radioactive waste worldwide needing disposal This waste contains over 100 radioactive elements that are cancer-causing and have varying half-lives. For example, Iodine-129, a thyroid carcinogen, has a half-life of 16 million years.
Accidents, disasters, and war risks
Even the most secure nuclear facilities cannot eliminate the risks of accidents, natural disasters (like earthquakes and tsunamis), and nuclear warfare. The consequences of Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima Daiichi, among other calamities should have been instructive. However, the nuclear industry is powerful, a lot of money is involved, and the public has been kept in the dark about the continuing effects of the radiation created by these events.
Nuclear radiation travels
Unfortunately, radiation doesn’t stay where it’s released. If the release is on land, wind currents take it wherever the wind blows; if on the coasts, ocean currents carry it around the world. For example, in the 1950s, harmful levels of radioactive caesium from bomb tests in Nevada were found in Minnesota wheat, about 1,500 miles away.
And in 2013, marine life on the U.S. West Coast suffered mysterious illnesses and die-offs, after radiation from Fukushima had crossed the Pacific. Official sources insisted that the low radiation levels reaching our shores were “nothing to worry about,” but according to Beyond Nuclear, there is no safe dose of ionizing radiation.
Other Dangers
Radiation from routine operation
Even without accidents, all nuclear power plants release radioactive water and gases as part of their routine operation, including tritium, which is linked to cancer, genetic mutations, and developmental disorders. Current government regulations allow these radioactive pollutants to be released into both water and air, raising serious concerns about long-term exposure.
Climate risk: rising seas threaten coastal reactors
Scientists estimate a minimum rise by 2100 of two feet, putting many coastal reactors worldwide at high risk. In the U.S., nine reactors are within two miles of the ocean. Four of these are vulnerable to storm surges and sea-level rise and are close to large cities within evacuation range, including Washington DC and New York City.
Health impacts
Besides impacts previously mentioned, radiation bioaccumulates in the body, meaning it can be passed on to fetuses, so the “gift” keeps on giving. And since it often takes decades for radiation-induced cancers to develop, their source may be unidentified.
We do know, though, that cancer rates are increasing worldwide. From 2010 to 2019, global cancer diagnoses jumped from 18.7 million to 23.6 million. Thyroid cancers in particular have risen rapidly in recent decades, for no apparent reason.
What scientists don’t know
Beyond these facts that nuclear experts know, others are known only by esotericists. The late British esotericist Benjamin Creme recorded the following information from a Master of Wisdom, one of the custodians of Earth’s evolutionary plan, in his book, The Gathering of the Forces of Light: UFOs and their Spiritual Mission.
“Toxicity, pollution of all kinds and in all fields, is now the greatest danger to all men, animals and the Earth itself. All are poisoned and sick in their own way.
“Unknown to men but evident to us, the greatest harm sustained by men and planet in this sorry tale is caused by nuclear radiation. … Led astray by greed and the false hope of vast profits, they [corporations] have concentrated their experiments in ‘taming’ the most dangerous source of energy ever discovered by man ….
“Earth scientists are confident that they have, indeed, tamed the monster, and can keep it under control. They do not realize that their instruments are crude indeed, that they measure only the lower aspects of nuclear radiation, that stretching above these dense-physical levels are levels finer and more dangerous to the health and well-being of all.”
The seven planes of physical matter
The levels the Master speaks of are the etheric planes. Western science currently recognizes only three aspects of matter: solids, liquids, and gases. Above those, however, are four additional physical planes of etheric matter, finer than gas and invisible to most people. Creme explains that nuclear radiation is even more dangerous at the etheric level, since it destroys the immune system, leaving individuals susceptible to all kinds of disease.
Help from Other Planets: Our Space Brothers
At this time of transition from one astronomical cycle to the next—from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius—we, humanity, are at a critical point in our evolutionary journey. We’re about to make a giant leap from thinking we’re mere physical beings to the understanding that we’re all sparks of one Divine energy. Therefore, we’re brothers and sisters of one family, no matter our race, religion, or nationality.
Because we’re at such a critical choice point between the disasters of business as usual and spiritual transformation, our Space Brothers and Sisters from other planets in our solar system have been visiting Earth in the thousands in recent years, to help us in any way possible. But because they exist on the etheric-physical and not the dense-physical we inhabit, we can’t see their ships (UFOs)—unless they deliberately lower their vibration to come within our visual range.
How our Space Brothers and Sisters help
We owe our space visitors a tremendous debt. They have the technology to neutralize nuclear radiation, and a primary reason for their presence here in recent years is to neutralize as much radiation from our nuclear reactors and tests as possible under karmic law. Without this service, our planet would already be uninhabitable.
A new future: rejecting nuclear, embracing spiritual progress
To assist us in making better choices, Maitreya, the World Teacher for this age, and his group, the Masters of Wisdom, are also here now and will soon appear publicly to guide us through our evolutionary leap. Their message: reject nuclear energy, abolish war, and share the Earth’s resources equitably among all nations for the common good. If we accept their advice, we’ll create a just, peaceful, sustainable, and safe home for Earth’s human family and all other life forms—free from the hidden perils of nuclear energy.

Thanks for publishing Cher Gilmore’s intriguing article about the dangers of nuclear fission. IMV there must be greater awareness that nuclear fission is not clean, not green, not affordable and pollutes forever at levels our current technology can’t even measure.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! We agree that it’s important to highlight the long-term risks and challenges of nuclear fission, especially as conversations about sustainable energy continue to grow. Greater awareness and open dialogue like this are exactly what we hope to foster by publishing articles such as Cher Gilmore’s.
Thank you for Cher Gilmore’s article on the serious dangers of using nuclear energy as a product to make the world a very sick planet for every single atom of life for humans, animals, plants and minerals of this precious Earth. If the really conscious humans could ask the right questions for solutions, for every effect there IS a cause, perhaps the right persons who actually know true answers for immediate resolutions. Benjamin Crème’s book, The Gathering of the Forces of Light, through his Master of Wisdom, has the most up to date answers to humanity’s greatest challenges for today. We’ve all asked ourselves; Where did we come from? Why are we here?, Where are we going? Take a good look at the world situations and work to understand the causes.
Thank you for your heartfelt response and for sharing your reflections. Cher Gilmore’s article was written to spark awareness and conversation, and your perspective adds a meaningful layer to that dialogue. We appreciate you highlighting the importance of asking deeper questions and seeking solutions that address the root causes of today’s global challenges.
It is also my understanding that nuclear fission is not safe or sustainable. Humanity already has proven technologies for energy generation that are safer than fission. We can have a sustainable civilization if we share the earth’s bounty and live sanely.
