RADON ACTION MONTH 2025 – Newsletter 2
RADON ACTION MONTH is chuffing right along!

Don’t forget our KNOWVEMBER campaign.  Entries have continued to come in, with Canadians coast to coast sharing their stories of radon awareness, radon mitigation, and more!

Be sure to spread the word amongst your clients and contacts – we’ll be sharing a selection of entries here, as well as on our website and social media accounts.

KNOWVEMBER IS SPREADING AWARENESS!
From text chains to selfies, our Knowvember contestants

are getting creative and sharing their radon knowledge!

RADON IN THE NEWS
Radon news coverage continued strong this week.  Here are a couple of stories:
It’s time to test your home for radon, Saskatchewan
‘It’s hidden’: Decaying uranium could be seeping radon into your basement
A call for radon research!
As many radon stakeholders are already aware, next year’s CARST Radon Conference will be held jointly with the Canadian Radiological Protection Association (CRPA).

A special part of CRPA’s Conference each year is the Anthony J. MacKay Student Paper Contest.  Applications are now being accepted for the 2026 contest, and we encourage any students working in the radon field to submit their application. Find more info or apply by clicking this link.
