THE CRITICAL FUKUSHIMA NUCLEAR REACTOR #4 A CATASTROPHY COULD AWAIT - JAPAN AND THE REST OF THE WORLD AT STAKE Posted April 16, 2012 By Colin Andrews |
============= In Japan, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), the nuclear industry, and its friends in the supervisory ministries and government have only shown themselves interested in returning to the pre-disaster status quo. As in the United States, a great deal of money lies with companies whose self interest brushes aside the dangers of nuclear power, let alone the reality of an on-going disaster at Fukushima with which nobody yet has the technology to ameliorate, let alone repair. ============= |

"Basically, if anything drains the water from the spent fuel pool at the Daiichi Plant’s Unit Number Four, then the fuel rods will catch on fire within a short period of time and cause a huge explosion likely affecting other spent fuel stored at the plant. Such an explosion would release unimaginable amounts of radioactivity into the environment". |
Professor Koide, a respected nuclear researcher at the prestigious Kyoto University, judges that if this were to happen Tokyo would become “uninhabitable.” The Northern Pacific Ocean, the United States, Canada and especially the Northwest Coast of North America would suffer massive amounts of radioactive pollution. This is not just Japan’s problem. |
