Massive Earthquake in Japan: Fukushima prepares for cold shutdown

De radiation à Fluoride dans l'eau à ...chemtrails... J'ai pas tout écouté.

Si les retombées d'une telle catastrophe étaient SI grave, l'Europe au complet, et pas juste les zone limitrophes à la catastrophe seraient bourrée de cancéreux mutants.

Découvrir des traces =/= un problème nécessairement. Remarquez comment le vidéo en question ne parle même pas de quantité avant de sauté dans l'univers de la paranoïa du deuxième narrateur.
 
Pourquoi t'en parle pas ?? Le principal danger du nucléaire est JUSTEMENT les cancers 20 apres.

exactly - and its been shown that child luekemia is high around safe working reactors!?
Parce que tu peux pas vraiment te fier ni au chiffre des russes ni a ceux des truc comme greenpeace qui manque de mourir des qu'il entendent le mot nucléaire.
Les chiffre diffère pas qu'un peu exemple ceux qui nettoyaient la zone apres l'explosion y'aurait 212 mort selon l'OMS et 60 000 selon un truc russe qui s'occupait de ca. Ta un facteur de genre 300 entre les 2. Mais y'avais pas d'equipement de protection et le reacteur a exploser et deverse du graphique et residu radioactifs sur grande surface.

Le reacteur de Tchernobyl etait un reacteur de 1ere generation hyper mal concu, c'etait pas un GE ou Candu ou les autre en europe.

Ps : vous vous souvenez d'Hiroshima ou ya eu une bombe, ben y'a encore des gens qui reste la et y'avais meme une usine de Mazda messemble la bas.
:rolleyes: greenpeace was co-opted by ex russina commies -greenpeace's founder says that. and nuclear bombs are not as bad as reactors melting down, along with the tons of used radiactive fuel. there was what 10pounds of uranium in the hiroshima bomb. 1 rod, for which there are 400 of in a single fuel cell, contains 70 pounds of uranimum!!!!

people need to watch this, listen & learn!! Alexey yablokov ex head of russia nuclear safety commission, chernobyl

 
Fukushima prepares for cold shutdown: Will it finally stabilize Unit 1?

At Fukushima Daiichi in Japan, nuclear reactor Unit 1 is being prepared for 'cold shutdown,' which requires flooding the reactor's containment structure with cold water to stop steam production.

Tokyo Electric Power Company says it is moving ahead with plans to bring the Unit 1 reactor at the Fukushima Daiichi plant to "cold shutdown" within the week, Japan Times reported today.

If that happened, it would be a major shift from the nuclear plant's current status, which the International Atomic Energy Agency still lists as "very serious." Cold shutdown means bringing the temperature inside the reactor down below the boiling point of water, so no steam pressure is being produced – a significant step if it happens, US experts said.

Before the temperature can be reduced, the building must be vented of radioactive air to allow operators to approach the reactor. In addition, American and British scientists have expressed concerns about the proposed step and newly discovered evidence of an ongoing radiation leak into the Pacific Ocean.

1 Year later...

Things we now know:

-All 3 reactors have fully melted down through the containment.
-Some areas within the containment zone will be uninhabitable for at least a century
-The explosion in reactor #4 was caused by zirconium-water reaction and subsequent hydrogen release from the spent fuel pool. Prompt criticality is also suspected.
-Decommisionning will take at least 40 years according to TEPCO.
-There is a massive stockpile of radioactively contaminated coolant on site, some 80,000 tons.
-At least 16000 people died in the triple disaster and 3000 are still missing.
-The total cost of this disaster while measured in dollars at 279 billion does not take into account the lives ruined, loved ones lost or the misery endured by over a million people.

Things to be thankful for:

-The plant didn't blow sky high in a nuclear explosion, vaporizing the fuel and turning Japan into a smoldering crater.
-The contamination on the ground at least seems to be limited in scope.
-People are finding new places to live and are starting to recover from this traumatic disaster.
-Nuclear power is under review in most countries and at risk reactors are being re-evaluated.

On this one year anniversary I invite my fellow MR members to please take a quiet moment to reflect.

If your near a family member hug them or pet your dog or cat. Many of these thing which we take for granted are no longer possible for some of the people affected.

Fukushima is finished this will be the final update.
 
Ayoye mais pourquoi rebatir lol...Je verrais ma maison décalissé en ruine après un tsunami et ca serait un "peace out" automatique, comment tu peux avoir la volonté de tout rebatir quand tu sais qu'il y a une possibilité que Dame Nature décide de relacher un criss de gros pet l'année prochaine?!?!?

Incroyable.

Ça m'étonne que cette nouvelle là obtienne si peu de couverture... C'est vraiment dramatique la situation là bas en ce moment.

The radiation levels at Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant are now at "unimaginable" levels.

Adam Housley, who reported from the area in 2011 following the catastrophic triple-meltdown, said this morning that new fuel leaks have been discovered.

He said the radiation levels - as high as 530 sieverts per hour - are now the highest they've been since 2011 when a tsunami hit the coastal reactor.

"To put this in very simple terms. Four sieverts can kill a handful of people," he explained.

He said that critics, including the U.S. military in 2011, have long questioned whether Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) and officials have been providing accurate information on the severity of the radiation.

TEPCO maintains that the radiation is confined to the site and not a risk to the public. It's expected to take at least $300 billion and four decades to fix it.

Housley said small levels of radiation are still being detected off the coasts of California and Oregon and scientists fear it could get worse.


"The worry is with 300 tons of radioactive water going into the Pacific every day, what is that doing to the Pacific Ocean?" said Housley.

He added that critics are now questioning whether the radiation has been this severe all along.

I was going to post this a few days ago, but no one seems to give a fuck about Fukushima.

The reason we're not hearing about it in the media is the same reason we haven't heard much about it since it originally happened; they're covering it up. This really infuriates me... It's even worse that this disaster was simply allowed to happen. It was a ticking time bomb, they had been warned for decades but never did anything to prevent this.

We only focus on "issues" where there's money to be made.

From comments:

Just a little trivia how huge this catastrophe is: an average dose of radiation for a single human in the world is around 3 milliSieverts per Year. (quick info: 1 Sievert has 1000 miliSieverts). That's 3 thousandths' part of 1 Sievert per Year. I mind you, per Year. NOT per hour as it is at Fukushima.

At Fukushima the hotspot they've just found emmits around 530 Sieverts PER HOUR. That's (530*24*365) 4642800 Sieverts per Year emitted into who-know-where, probably into the air and the ocean now, and literally centuries to come. And that's just what we've been told, and what they've alledgelly found. I mind you, they still haven't found at least other TWO reactor cores. They don't have even an idea where they are. Again, an insane issue in itself. Having in mind that Tepco has a history of repeatedly lying about this, you can only imagine what's the real state of that wretched site.

I don't know all the details, but this seems to be the biggest man-made catastrophe EVER. Ever. Let that sinks in a little in your mind. I can't think of anything more damaging and especially devastating in prolong period of time.


Another thing: they found one core of one reactor under its containment vessel, borrowing into the bedrock. It weights in best estimates at least 150 tons. Just imagine. 150 tons of uncontrolable blazingly hot and highly radioactive mix of uraniums' and plutoniums' isotopes.

You simply must have at least some basic knowledge about radioactivity to grasp how unimaginable and insanely dangerous this fact is.

Cliffs:
"Fukushima holds more than 1 million tons of contaminated water.
The water comes from two main sources. First, the tsunami caused the reactor cores to overheat and melt, so cleanup workers injected water into the cores to cool them. In the wake of the accident, groundwater also seeped in beneath the reactors and mixed with radioactive material.
To store this contaminated water, the plant currently has 1,000 sealed tanks. But the water is still accumulating. There's enough room to keep the liquid contained through summer 2022, but after that, there will be no space left.
At a news briefing in Tokyo, Japan's environment minister, Yoshiaki Harada, said that come 2022, "the only option will be to drain it into the sea and dilute" the contaminated water.

Dumping the water could reduce cleanup costs"




Future generations will read that last part and wonder how we could be so fucking stupid.


Dumping the water should not be an option, and Japan should be solely responsible for the cleanup cost, even if it bankrupts the country. Through their negligence and "pride" (ego) they allowed this disaster to happen...

Shit like this makes me yearn for a planet without humans.

Still ironic how the Russians made more headlines with Tchernobyl than the Japanese.
 
Chernobyl was much worse and handled much more poorly. Depends who you ask. Both are terrible events

Yeah, there can be no "good" atomic/nuclear event... I think we all agree on that but I also sense that Fukushima might be more "surnois" than Tchernobyl if only because it will continue to contaminate the Pacific ocean for centuries.

There has been a massive cover up and suppression of information with Fukushima. I'm certain that if Fukushima just happened to be in Russia, the spin would have been very different.

Much more radiation was released in Chernobyl but in the end I think you're right, Fukushima will end up having more widespread effects. Especially if the do end up dumping all that radioactive water into the ocean.
