PEOPLE FORCED BACK IN RADIOACTIVE AREAS, OCEAN AND FISH ALSO CONTAMINATED(video)

Arnie Gundersen on Al Jazzerea, 27th of March 2014.

Well, there’s been a lot of lessons learned. Unfortunately, most of the changes are not being implemented. We learned about this huge wave that can knock out the cooling systems of the plant. There’s plants in the United States that have that same problem, but yet we have given those power plants as long as 10 years to make the required fixes. Emergency planning was proven to be a joke, and yet we’ve got Indian Point, which is only 20 miles from New York City, which continues to operate. So while we know the problems, we’re really not getting to the meat of solving them.

SAME GOES FOR SWEDEN.
INSTEAD THE POLITICIANS ARE NOW DISCUSSING TO ADD 10 YEARS OF OPERATING TIME TO REACTORS THAT HAVE ALREADY REACHED THE AGE OF RETIREMENT.
YOU HAVE TO PROTEST TO THE POLITICIAN.


we are beginning to see low levels of radiation in the water. I have told people I wouldn’t mind swimming in the water; I wouldn’t mind walking along the water. But until our government, whether it’s states or national government, tell me what’s in the fish, I remain very concerned about eating the fish that are coming from the Pacific.

Fukushima 3 Years on & Impossible to Fix or Decontaminate ☠ (VIDEO)

11TH OF MARCH , 3 YEARS AFTER THE NUCLEAR CATASTROPHY IN FUKUSHIMA, THE SITE IS STILL A TICKING BOMB, THE SITE IS STILL CONTINUING TO SPEW OUT RADIATION, 400 TONS EVERY DAY, AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO FOR 100 YEARS. FROM THE BEGINNING, THERE HAS BEEN A DOWNPLAY OF THE SITUATION. THE WORLD IS BLINDED. HOW IS THE SITUATION TODAY? 

Arnie Gundersen:

• Is most of the cleanup complete?
• Are the people of Japan, especially the children, Ok?
• Are the Japanese evacuees returning home?
• Are the oceans OK?

Sadly, the answers are no. And, we are left with the questions what does the future look like for the Fukushima Prefecture and for Japan as a whole?

What lessons should we learn? We have learned that no matter how much electricity is generated by nuclear power, this technology has the potential to destroy the fabric of an entire country overnight; Fairewinds discussed this tragedy in the video: 40 good years and one bad day. Most of all, the nuclear power debacle at Fukushima Daiichi has made it clear that businesses love nuclear power for its incredible profits, but only if taxpayers continue to subsidize its incredible risks and catastrophic post-mishap costs.


Truthfully, the world’s energy paradigm is not hopeless. Germany has made the courageous decision to eliminate all existing nuclear plants before 2022 and will not build any new nukes.


It’s up to us as individuals if we want to help create such change in order to protect our environment, our economy, and the health and safety of our citizens.

Right now, world governments are heavily influenced by the money and power of the nuclear industry. It is up to individuals like you to make change happen. As the poet June Jordan wrote, “We are the ones we have been waiting for.

The operator of Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant says it might eventually have to dump hundreds of thousands of tonnes of contaminated water into the Pacific Ocean. It's been three years since the nuclear disaster, but TEPCO is still struggling to clear up, with occasional radioactive leaks still happening. RT has been following the disaster since it began.

Fairewinds Arnie Gundersen: Nuclear Power: Their Profits, Our Risks
https://vimeo.com/88879136
During the three long and frightening years since the triple meltdown at Fukushima Daiichi, the world has heard less and less about this manmade disaster. Money, power, and engineering hubris were put ahead of the lives and health of the people of Japan and the northern hemisphere as radiation releases continue to leave the site and migrate into the environment. This catastrophe is the world's worst industrial disaster. Decommissioning and dismantling the reactors will take decades and complete cleanup is at least a century away ~ if ever. In this film Fairewinds Energy Education's Arnie Gundersen gives an update on the state of Fukushima Daiichi three years later.
