What are Annual effective dose per person background radiation?

The annual effective dose of background radiation per person varies by location but typically averages around 2 to 3 millisieverts (mSv) globally. This radiation comes from natural sources, including cosmic rays, radon gas, and terrestrial sources such as soil and rocks. Certain areas with higher natural radioactivity can expose individuals to doses exceeding this average. Overall, background radiation is a constant part of life, contributing to our cumulative radiation exposure.
