2 Years later, Fukushima now declared out of control (compared, education, 2013)

but nuclear is safe

in fact there are less mishaps with nuclear than with steam, coal, liquid fuel, or even the production of solar/wind equipment


france is the size of texas, yet has almost as many nuclear power plants as the usa (not counting the floating military reactors)


Sweden is one twentieth the size of the usa (1/20) yet has TWICE the nuclear power plants per sq km

Yeah, the FDA only reports they found "detectable levels" in their testing.
Actually numbers are coming out of the EU and other countries and higher education research labs here in the US.

I wonder if Obama's buddies from GE will be held accountable..............this is from '11 that's how long this crap has been going on and off the radar of everybody.

"The worst that could happen if all cooling stopped is that the fuel would melt and fall to the floor of the containment vessel. The containment vessel is designed to hold the hot fuel in, but the type of nuclear reactor in danger at the Fukushima plant —General Electric Mark One boiling water reactors — has been widely reported to have a vulnerability in its design that would let the fuel burn through the floor of the vessel. If that happened, radiation could spread through the environment, but on a much more limited basis than happened at Chernobyl, where there was no containment vessel and the core contained graphite that burned, dispersing radioactivity widely. A massive plume of radioactive smoke and ash could spread from the site, exposing people for miles away, depending on the wind and weather."

Because radiation safety standards are set based on the assumption that everyone exposed is a healthy man in his 20s – and that radioactive particles ingested into the body cause no more damage than radiation hitting the outside of the body.

However – in the real world – radiation affects small children much more than full-grown adults. And small particles of radiation – called “internal emitters” – which get inside the body are much more dangerous than general exposures to radiation. See this and this.

In addition, American and Canadian authorities have virtually stopped monitoring airborn radiation, and are not testing fish for radiation. (Indeed, the EPA reacted to Fukushima by raising “acceptable” radiation levels.)

So – as in Japan – radiation is usually discovered by citizens and the handful of research scientists with funding to check, and not the government. See this, this, this, this, this and this.

The Japanese government’s entire strategy from day one has been to cover up the severity of the Fukushima accident. This has likely led to unnecessary, additional deaths.

Indeed, the core problem is that all of the world’s nuclear agencies are wholly captured by the nuclear industry … as are virtually all of the supposedly independent health agencies.

So the failure of the American, Canadian and other governments to test for and share results is making it difficult to hold an open scientific debate about what is happening.

Didn't Obama make the Head of GE the energy zar? and GE builds n sells Nuke plants...Ya you wont here much .... Nuke plant= clean energy GE SAYS..AHH BREATH IT' IN..

no not kidding

nuclear is safe

I've seen coal plants blow up and destroy a town.....nuclear is very safe compared to fossel steam plants


sorry you cant handle the facts

If you live (especially in a downwind direction) near one of the hundred or so nuclear HELL-HOLES in this country, take a look at the 14 items on this information sheet:

http://www.nirs.org/factsheets/routineradioactivereleases.htm


The masses of ignorant sheeple have no idea how dangerous these nuclear plants are.

As we speak, the National Academy of Sciences is conducting an updated study to determine cancer risks in populations living near seven of these aging, toxic nuclear plants across the country...

Yeah there is information all over, but it is down played. MIC likes it's nasty toys.

Nuclear plants are fine when not built in a flood zone.
