More alarmist bullsh*t.... Fukushima is a disaster for central Japan.
It is a minor health hazard for the area around Japan, for the rest of the world the risk is small....not zero but small. Over the course of decades
tens or even hundreds of thousands of people will die from cancer they would not have otherwise developed. But the radiation is NOT being aerosolized and dispersed into the atmosphere as in a warhead explosion.
It’s being washed into the Pacific and dispersed widely...it is not, never was and never will be a threat to humanity or life as we know it. Leave the physics and science to those who REALLY know what the facts are and how
radiation REALLY works.

The science says:

Plutonium levels 1000 times normal on sea floor 50 miles from San Francisco

Alarming West Coast sardine crash radiating through ecosystem

Scientists say Fukushima plume us at West Coast

Sea star death epidemic, dead overnight

Unprecedented salmon declines in Alaska

Thanks for your talking points, but the people who REALLY know science are saying the government is lying about the danger.

You have no comprehension of the quantity of nuclear material burned at Fukushima. The dumbasses stored decades of spent fuel rods inside the plants in cooling pools. When the pools drained the rods ~burned~ and aerosolized.

When the reactors lost power so did the cooling pools which contained many times the number of fuel rods as the reactors. And Reactor 3 used MOX rods with a significant plutonium content. Dozens of MOX rods were stored inside #3 and subsequently burned up when their pools drained.

Looks like the alarmists are giving up on GoreBull warming until the end of May and are falling back to the old Soviet inspired “No Nukes” canard.

And I put a part of the responsibility for this on the Greens for blocking any permanent solution to nuclear waste disposal. All over the world we have used cores in “ temporary” storage, RIGHT NEXT TO the reactors because they won’t allow a permanent solution. In Fukishimas case the stupidity was epic, storing the used cores ON TOP OF THE REACTORS.
