I was talking to someone, who may be in a position to know a few things, who indicated that the impact of this is much worse than anyone wants to admit. He said that California would slowly come to realize that their coast has been seriously damaged.

But perhaps he was just an alarmist.

Just cover the entire site with a mountain of molten lead already and be done with it.

There is no melted core cleanup possible at Fukushima. They have no idea were the melted cores are and they lack the technology to clean them up. What they are doing is slowly allowing the melted cores to be washed out to sea via the under water aquifer the plant was built on. Will take a few decades. The only cleanup possible is removing some of the destroyed reactor building infrastructure.

Three years wasted.

By now everyone should know pumping water into the reactors is not fixing anything. They avoided a full meltdown/release but the leaks will continue or get worse. Contaminated water will get into groundwater and the sea.

The reactor cores have to be disassembled and nuclear fuel removed to halt nuclear reaction. A ticklish task even in the best of conditions, it now has to be done in a high radiation environment, on unstable ground obstructed by debris, underwater by remote control. I don't know if it's even possible but if anyone can design robots capable of doing this, it's the Japanese. Have they made any progress in three years?

If not, what's their Plan B?
