It all depends on which color they glow.
Bioluminescence has nothing to do with radioactivity.
This is natural. It always interests Boy Scouts when they see fungi glowing in the woods. It is quite prevalent, at least here in Pennsylvania. In a fungi, it is to attract insects to spread the spores. Chemically it is the enzyme luciferase acting upon the compound luciferin to break it down and release the energy as one photon of light.

are also bioluminescent bacteria (Photobacterium), plants (dinoflagellates) and insects (fireflies).
