The News That Matters about the Nuclear Industry Fukushima Chernobyl Mayak Three Mile Island Atomic Testing Radiation Isotope

TEPCO’s lie about “Hydrogen” Explosion at Fukushima no 4. No Hydrogen available at Unit #4.

Can anyone explain what really happened at Fukushima reactor number 4?
http://nuclearhistory.wordpress.com/2012/08/11/can-anyone-explain-what-really-happened-at-fukushima-reactor-number-4/ Australian experts are useless, they stated in March after each explosion, that the situation was absolutely normal” (ANU nuker voice over of the brown “hydrogen” demolitions of the buildings)

Here’s a video which was shown once in Japan and then only broadcast again in India, showing the discrete reactor 4 blast: Kitagawa Takashi Keio University

“Totally a Myth. Explosion of Unit #4.
TEPCO explains it’s “Hydrogen” Explosion.
No Hydrogen available at Unit #4.
TEPCO explains it came from Unit #3 via duct.

These are lies as are pointed out for number of reasons.

TEPCO admitts there are 8m large holes north and east walls which have
never happened to Units #1,2,3.

No video available for the explosion Unit #4 in Japan, US, EU nowhere
in advanced coutries. There certainly is, TV Fukushima shot that and
withdrawed and never has been opend since then.
Only available is from India (presumablly).

We spent mentally tough time since there was so many aftershocks.

We didn’t know either when another explosion may happen or if there is an invisible radiation effect.

I wondered why the government didn’t help us evacuate. Did they abandon us? Distrust of the government got stronger.

Doctor Shuntaro Hida: Still now the nature of the radiation damage cannot be understood from a medical point of view, nor can it be treated.

At 4:15 in

Hida: Internal radiation exposure is indeed dangerous. Once you absorb even a low dose it will cause damage.

At 4:45 in

Hida: You should spend the rest of your lives working together to shut down nuclear plants and abolish nuclear weapons.

At 5:25 in

Hida: The government and other elites say that people don’t need to worry about internal exposure. But I’ve seen evidence to the contrary.

Date: Aug. 6, 2012 “…. Only one-third of the 150-hours of video contain audio sound.

The media are allowed to watch the videos on personal computers at TEPCO’s head office. The company bans reporters from making copies of the footage.

[…]

The utility finally released the footage in response to requests from the public, but only on a limited basis.

The released part is not sufficient to review the responses to the accident. Calls for full disclosure are expected to increase.

[…]

Information expert Mikio Haruna, visiting professor at Tokyo’s Waseda University Graduate School

[He] is calling for full disclosure of the TEPCO video footage
He says the footage is a national asset that will help determine the cause of the accident at the power plant and prevent a recurrence
He also says the footage is critical in view of people’s right to access to information
Haruna criticizes Tokyo Electric Power Company for deleting sections of the video
He says people may suspect that the utility has something to hide
He says the video should be fully disclosed so that the accident can be thoroughly reviewed

Japan’s Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda says he’ll ask his ministers to clarify what issues lay ahead if the country should end its dependence on nuclear energy. 

Noda told reporters in Hiroshima on Monday that he wants to see a thorough discussion on the matter, rather than rushing to reach a conclusion.

He indicated that he won’t insist on sticking to the government’s initial target of the end of this month in deciding the country’s new energy policy.

[…]

Mitsuko Nishikawa, NHK Reporter: The Japanese gov’t plans to decide on the energy policy by the end of this month, but with support growing for the 0% nuclear power option it is considering postponing that deadline.

Daniel Hirsch of CommitteeToBridgeTheGap.org, UCLA professor: If that radioactivity were released you could wipe out a substantial portion of California for generations.

And the only thing that prevents that radioactive material from getting out is if the coolant keeps operating…

You can have a release of radioactivity on a scale that no one can really imagine…

May 7, 2012

Excerpts

  • Gentilly reactor [in Quebec, Canada] releases 200 trillion becquerels of tritium every year
  • Tritium is a chronic problem
  • No way it can be filtered out of [drinking] water
  • Becomes a part of all living things
  • Beta particle goes ripping through nearby molecules
  • Sometimes manifests itself as cancer

Wikipedia: Gordon Edwards was born in Canada in 1940, and graduated from the University of Toronto in 1961 with a gold medal in Mathematics and Physics and a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship. In 1972, he obtained a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Queen’s University. […] Edwards has worked widely as a consultant on nuclear issues and has been qualified as a nuclear expert by courts in Canada and elsewhere.

Radioactivity in Tokyo

Dr. Chris Busby: Entomb the reactors or have ‘Mad Max’ scenario.  http://optimalprediction.com/wp/dr-chris-busby-entomb-the-reactors-or-have-mad-max-scenario/ 3 Aug 12,  Chris Busby is calling for sealing off the Fukushima reactors, since they are still releasing huge amounts of radionuclides. Cost is no object. I would say that the whole site needs to be entombed, since steam and smoke are coming out of fissures in the ground. Also a boronated concrete barrier needs to be built underground, to stop the leakage of corium into the groundwater and the sea.

Busby has also done tests on an air-conditioning filter in a Tokyo apartment (here andhere), and has found huge amounts of cesium and uranium in it. Where there is uranium, there is plutonium too. These radionuclides are incredibly toxic.
