That much alpha radiation probably happens within a month or so anyway.

I thought it was hydrogen gas that was highly flammable, not helium, which, as a noble gas, isn't very reactive.

Probably what happened in that Sliders episode where a country had released an airborne agent that killed most people with a y chromosome. I loved that episode.

You might manage to asphyxiate a few people if you somehow released it at ground level, but mostly it'll get displaced to the upper atmosphere where it'll form a layer of helium until the solar wind carries it off.

Archer, Helium is non-flammable.

Also, the mass of the atmosphere is approx. 5.15x 10^18 (metric) tons. 10 trillion tons is 10^13 tons. So the atmosphere is now more than 50 wt% helium.

Uh... 10^13 is not more than half the value of 10^18. Not even close to it in fact. That's waaaay less than 1%
