My rough, back-of-the-envelope calculation for total mass of fission products released by atmospheric nuclear testing is about 13 tons.

@wellerstein Who cares about your calculation? Answer was calculated long ago. Look it up! UNSCEAR has one calculation.
@NuclearReporter If you have a reference, I'm all ears. I was interested in the mass, as a means of visualizing it, not total radioactivity.

@wellerstein The UNSCEAR 1993 report to the UN General Assembly at least mentions the total radioactivity released and the cancer deaths.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@wellerstein That Dr. John is a piece of... work, isn't he? This is the 1993 UNSCEAR, and it doesn't agree with him: http://www.unscear.org/docs/reports/1993/1993a_pages%201-30.pdf …Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
