Very interesting tool Ruts.

Notice how the east coast reads higher than the west coast? Wonder why?

Will be watching this - as maybe more participants join to affect the real time result. hmmm?

My daughter is still in LA and I can at least give her heads up news... :scared

Fukushima reactor 4 requires urgent intervention; coalition calls for emergency UN action to halt catastrophic release of radiation


On 30 April, seventy-two Japanese NGO organizations lead by Shut Tomari and Green Action send an urgent request to the UN and Japanese government urging immediate action to stabilize the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Unit 4 spent nuclear fuel. The letter was endorsed by experts from Japan and abroad.

The letter warned that the seriously damaged Unit 4 spent nuclear fuel pool contains Cesium-137 (Cs-137) that is equivalent to 10 times the amount released at the time of the Chernobyl nuclear accident. If an earthquake or other event were to cause this pool to drain, this could result in a catastrophic radiological fire.

The letter urged the United Nations to organize a Nuclear Safety Summit to take up the crucial problem of the Fukushima Daiichi Unit 4 spent nuclear fuel pool. The letter stated that the United Nations should establish an independent assessment team on Fukushima Daiichi Unit 4 and coordinate international assistance in order to stabilize the unit's spent nuclear fuel and prevent radiological consequences with potentially catastrophic consequences.

Letters were sent to both UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda, the latter asking that Japan ask immediately for the UN's help.

It is amazing that this issue has not yet gone viral on the net.

Ruts - we should start a separate thread to record this history - it is going to matter later imo.

"Is This TEOTWAWKI?"

Sky, it is only now starting to come out just how bad this disaster is, and only on the net; is there anything in the MSM about it? It could be TEOTWAWKI for part of the globe at any rate. Tied in as we all are in this age, it would have repercussions throughout the world that would certainly be life-changing everywhere.

I can make a new thread and copy all the posts about Fukushima into it; is that what you mean? Where do you think we should put it, in Breaking News? with a sticky?

100% with you on that Ruts

Spotted your "new" thread in Breaking News - right on the money!

I will put my latest fins there also. At least we can go down in flames saying - 'We told you So!!'

:shakehead :scared

Steam rising from Japan's destroyed Fukushima nuclear power plant

By Antoni Slodkowski, Reuters

TOKYO -- Steam is rising from a destroyed building that houses a reactor at Japan's crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, the operator of the plant, Tokyo Electric Power Co, said on Thursday.

The utility, widely known as Tepco, said the levels of radioactivity around the plant had remained unchanged and it was still looking into what triggered the emission. :roll

"We think it's possible that rain made its way through the reactor building and having fallen on the primary containment vessel, which is hot, evaporated creating steam," said Tepco spokeswoman Maymi Yoshida, adding it was still investigating the matter. :huh

Few people are granted access to the radioactive Fukushima exclusion zone in Japan, which remains abandoned and frozen in time on March 11, 2011 — the day a massive earthquake and subsequent tsunami caused a triple nuclear meltdown in this Japanese city. Channel 4's Alex Thomson reports.

Each reactor is surrounded by a primary containment vessel. This is made of strengthened steel four to eight inches thick. It provides the most critical line of defense against leaking radiation from the reactor. (So how did rain get in, hmmm?)

snip

The steam rising from the reactor No.3 building was spotted at 8:20 a.m. local time (7:20 p.m. ET Wednesday) by a subcontractor who was filming the destroyed building and preparing to remove rubble from the site. It was still visible some two hours later, Yoshida said. :shock:

snip

The latest findings underscore the difficulties Tepco is facing in trying to keep the ravaged plant under control. About a week ago a huge spike in radioactive cesium was detected in groundwater 25 meters from the sea.

The operator has been flushing water over the damaged reactors to keep them cool for more than two years, but contaminated water has been building up at the rate of an Olympic-size swimming pool per week.

Radioactive water seeping into Pacific from Fukushima is 'emergency,' official says

By Antoni Slodkowski and Mari Saito, Reuters

TOKYO - Highly radioactive water seeping into the ocean from Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear plant is creating an "emergency" that the operator is struggling to contain, an official from the country's nuclear watchdog said Monday.

This contaminated groundwater has breached an underground barrier, is rising toward the surface and is exceeding legal limits of radioactive discharge, Shinji Kinjo, head of a Nuclear Regulatory Authority task force, told Reuters.

Countermeasures planned by Tokyo Electric Power Co (Tepco) are only a temporary solution, he said.

Tepco's "sense of crisis is weak," Kinjo said. "This is why you can't just leave it up to Tepco alone" to grapple with the ongoing disaster.

"Right now, we have an emergency," he said.
