The Potassium naturally occurring in your body produces 5400 Bq of radiation. All the Krypton-85 in the atmosphere produces 1 Bq per cubic meter of air. So this is a trivial amount of radiation and not a hazard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_equivalent_dose https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krypton-85
It’s going to be wild to see how much more broke Wyoming is going to be when the rest of the country finally transitions off of coal (and later gas). It’s already depressing to drive through.
