Devastation in Japan due to radioactive debris after earthquake and subsequent tsunami
Incoming waves of nuclear radiation pose a very clear and present danger. On Saturday June 9, 2012 Coast to Coast conducted the Fukushima Forum.
Each hour specialists in nuclear engineering, alternative energy, naturopathic detoxification, and decontamination offered opinions and advice.
What is the best way to deal with the latest nuclear disaster in Japan? The US is being affected and needs to prepare for the the next incident.
The consensus emerging from the Fukushima Forum is we must help ourselves and largely rely on ourselves without expecting so much as honesty from government.
Good air, food, and water are essential for human health. And the products at CaravanToMidnight.com offer a measure of security.
News
This video (published on Oct. 5, 2012 by MsMilkytheclown) deals with California's Diablo Canyon and Japan's Fukushima nuclear plants. Evacuation zones around Fukushima-Daiichi are being expanded to 50 km rather than 20 km. The new guidelines do not say whether the people of Fukushima will be included. Noda says no to commencing construction on the Kaminaseki nuclear power plant. Meanwhile in the USA, PG&E is blasting the Pacific Ocean in front of Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant in California ostensibly to check for earthquake fault lines. This will destroy aquatic life in the zone, particularly dolphins and whales. But animal abuse (vivisection) continues beyond the beach: Mice are being experimented on with artificial iPS cells to create sperm and ova to produce "normal" mice. Why stop at mice? Japanese scientists are taking "creationism" into their own hands by having done this with HUMANS too as a cure for "infertility" and/or radiation damage. But news reports suggest officials still want to reconstruct Fukushima. In other headlines, an extinct wooly mammoth (Ice Age northern elephant) was found with organs and bones intact. Mainichi: Gov't "choreographed" event on Fukushima health effects. Fukushima newspaper editor: We don't report on health risks from radiation; people might worry. Radiation and health specialist: Children with more than 11 bq/kg of the radioactive element cesium start to see heart problems according to a new study. Now 28 bubbling sites are associated with giant sinkhole: "Air releases" at 3 locations outside are area being tested. New images of fallen steel beam atop fuel assemblies in Unit 3 Pool: Handles covered in debris, barely visible. Local news: Reports of mysterious loud earthquakes flooding into Louisiana towns: "Of course the sinkhole comes to mind" dozens of miles away, so rare and there are no seismic monitors in area. Newspaper: Giant deposits of BP's oil on or beneath US Gulf floor: Devastating fallout of spill continues... ecological calamity! Nuclear engineer: Fukushima plant "is a waste generation facility... with no off switch." Nuclear engineer: "This is the worst possible scenario" -- I think the melted fuel has already eaten through the concrete at Fukushima plant. Boat seen outside boundary of giant sinkhole. Flyover footage shows new area nearby giant sinkhole saturated with water. Coast Guard: 4-mile stretch of oil has appeared near BP's Macondo well in Gulf. Victims of suspected radiological spraying in St. Louis suffer thyroid and other cancers; helicopters covered children in powder: "Oh my God, if they did that, there's no telling what else they're hiding!" Pressure from cavern below giant sinkhole near 1,000 psi, trying to extract "hydrocarbon material" from well. Oil reported at BP's Macondo Well in Gulf could be coming from "fissures or cracks in sea floor" -- NOAA cover up? Gov't held secret meetings about human health impacts from Fukushima crisis. Asahi: Cesium levels spike in Fukushima primates: Radioactivity much higher in 2012 than in June 2011. Tokyo getting five times more radioactive fallout than prefectures closer to Fukushima. NHK: "Underground spring-water" a concern in Fukushima fallout study; drone helicopter now measuring radiation around plant. Radio: "Every few days sinkhole gets bigger and gas bubbles spread out." "My big fear is significant groundwater and aquifer contamination" for that area of Louisiana. Top US nuclear official: Technologies don't exist yet to clean up Fukushima site... very difficult to overstate difficulty. Nuclear whistleblower: I was asked to leave my church. It's been a living hell (VIDEO).
