We are in BIG Trouble-Fukishima Falling Apart

Are you ready? By Christina Consolo Contributing writer for End the Lie and host of Nuked Radio Investigators visiting the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in May 2011 (Image credit: Greg Webb/IAEA) Thirteen months have passed since the Fukushima reactors exploded, and a U.S. Senator finally got off his ass and went to Japan to see what is going on over there. What he saw was horrific. And now he is saying that we are in big trouble. See the letter he sent to U.S. Ambassador to Japan Ichiro Fujisaki, Secretary of Energy Steven Chu, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and NRC's Chairman Gregory Jaczko here. But what is so ironic about this is that we have been in this heap of trouble since March of 2011. March 17th, to be exact, when the plume of radioactive materials began bombarding the west coast of California. And Oregon. And Washington. And British Columbia. And later Maine, Europe, and everywhere in between.   Independent researchers, nuke experts, and scientists, from oceanography to entomology and everywhere in between, having been trying to sound the alarm ever since. The scientists most upset are those who have studied the effects of radiation on health. I'll say it again, so its really clear: we are in big trouble. The most preliminary reports of soil contamination are starting to come in from the USGS, who has seemed reluctant to share this information. Los Angeles, California, Portland, Oregon, and Boulder, Colorado, so far have the highest radioactive particle contamination out of the entire US. That being said, every single city tested across the country showed contamination from Fukushima. What is even more alarming, however, about the numbers coming in, is that they are from samples taken April 5th, of last year. The Tokyo Electric Power Company, or TEPCO, has only recently confirmed that there were three meltdowns, and they have been ongoing, unabated, for thirteen months, and no effort has been made to contain them. Technology has to be developed/invented to deal with the melted out corium under the reactors. Until then, they will keep doing what they have been doing. TEPCO just keeps dumping water on them, after which they let it pour into the ocean, and steam up through the ground, every second of every day. The jet stream, and a highly dynamic portion of our atmosphere called the troposphere, have been swirling around massive amounts of radioactive particles and settling them out, mostly in rain, over the entire northern hemisphere, especially the west coast of North America, from Alaska down to Baja and even further. Iodine, cesium, strontium, plutonium, uranium, and a host of other fission products have been coming directly from Japan to the west coast for thirteen months. Maybe you have heard about sick seals, polar bears, tainted fish, mutations in dandelions and fruits and vegetables, possibly even animals already, and seaweed. In fact the kelp from Corona del Mar contained 40,000,000 bcq/kg of radioactive iodine, as reported in Scientific American several weeks ago. If you don't know your becquerels, its a lot. That's what your pacific fish feed on. And that was only ONE isotope reported. There were up to 1600 different isotopes that have been floating around in our air, pouring out of the reactors, and steaming out of the ground, every second of every day, for 13 months. And there has been silence from our mainstream media, for which the depths of depravity are so severe I will devote an entire article just to the "why" at a future time. But back to the research: reports in the past week indicate the pollen in southern California is radioactive now too, and it is flying around, and if you live there and go outside, you are breathing it in. And so are your children. Along with fission products blowing over from Japan. And radiation in your drinking water. And in your rain. And in the fish you are eating. And your vegetables. And the milk supply. And its happening every second, of every day. For 13 months. Are you starting to see a problem here? Problem is, that's not even the biggest problem. The biggest problem is what Senator Wyden is all bent out of shape about, even though independent researchers and nuke experts have been warning about this for a year. And that is that the Reactor #4 building is on the verge of collapsing. Seismicity standards rate the building at a zero, meaning even a small earthquake could send it into a heap of rubble. And sitting at the top of the building, in a pool that is cracked, leaking, and precarious even without an earthquake, are 1565 fuel rods (give or take a few), some of them "fresh fuel" that was ready to go into the reactor on the morning of March 11th when the earthquake and tsunami hit. If they are MOX fuel, containing 6% plutonium, one fuel rod has the potential to kill 2.89 billion people. If this pool collapses, as Senator Wyden is now saying too, we would face a mass extinction event from the release of radiation in those rods. That is, if we aren't in one already. Nuke experts like Arnie Gundersen and Helen Caldicott are prepared to evacuate their families to the southern hemisphere if that happens. It is that serious. So now you know, if you didn't before. We are in big trouble.

Japan Radiation Water Readings 1,000 X Prior Levels

Radiation detected 400 miles off Japan coast

Tuesday, February 21, 2012 - 21:30 in Earth & Climate

Salt Lake City

Japan's Radioactive Ocean

Radioactive contamination from the Fukushima power plant disaster has been detected as far as almost 400 miles off Japan in the Pacific Ocean, with water showing readings of up to 1,000 times more than prior levels, scientists reported Tuesday.

But those results for the substance cesium-137 are far below the levels that are generally considered harmful, either to marine animals or people who eat seafood, said Ken Buesseler of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts.

He spoke Tuesday in Salt Lake City at the annual Ocean Sciences Meeting, attended by more than 4,000 researchers this week.

The results are for water samples taken in June, about three months after the power plant disaster, Buesseler said. In addition to thousands of water samples, researchers also sampled fish and plankton and found cesium-137 levels well below the legal health limit.

"We're not over the hump" yet in terms of radioactive contamination of the ocean because of continued leakage from the plant, Buesseler said in an interview before Tuesday's talk. He was chief scientist for the cruise that collected the data.

The ship sampled water from about 20 miles to about 400 miles off the coast east of the Fukushima plant. Concentrations of cesium-137 throughout that range were 10 to 1,000 times normal, but they were about one-tenth the levels generally considered harmful, Buesseler said.

Cesium-137 wasn't the only radioactive substance released from the plant, but it's of particular concern because of its long persistence in the environment. Its half-life is 30 years.

The highest readings last June were not always from locations closest to the Fukushima plant, Buesseler said. That's because swirling ocean currents formed concentrations of the material, he said.

Most of the cesium-137 detected during the voyage probably entered the ocean from water discharges, rather than atmospheric fallout, he added.

Scientists assess radioactivity in the ocean from Japan nuclear power facility

With current news of additional radioactive leaks from the Fukushima nuclear power plants, the impact on the ocean of releases of radioactivity from the plants remains unclear. But a new study by U.S. and Japanese researchers analyzes the levels of radioactivity discharged in the first four months after the accident.

It draws some basic conclusions about the history of contaminant releases to the ocean.

The study was conducted by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution chemist Ken Buesseler and two colleagues based in Japan, Michio Aoyama of the Meteorological Research Institute and Masao Fukasawa of the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology.

They report that discharges from the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear power plants peaked one month after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that precipitated the nuclear accident, and continued through at least July.

Their study finds that the levels of radioactivity, while high, are not a direct threat to humans or marine life, but cautions that the effect of accumulated radionuclides in marine sediments is poorly known.

The release of radioactivity from Fukushima--both as atmospheric fallout and direct discharges to the ocean--represents the largest accidental release of radiation to the ocean in history.

Concentrations of cesium-137, a radioactive isotope with a 30-year half-life, at the plants' discharge points to the ocean peaked at more than 50 million times normal/previous levels.

Concentrations 18 miles offshore were higher than those measured in the ocean after the Chernobyl accident 25 years ago.

This is largely related to the fact, says Buesseler, that the Fukushima nuclear power plants are located along the coast, whereas Chernobyl was several hundred miles from the nearest salt water basins, the Baltic and Black Seas.

However, due to ocean mixing processes, the levels are rapidly diluted off the northwest coast of Japan.

The study used data on the concentrations of cesium-137, cesium-134 and iodine-131 as a basis to compare the levels of radionuclides released into the ocean with known levels in the sea surrounding Japan prior to the accident.

The resulting paper, Impacts of the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plants on Marine Radioactivity, is published in the current issue of the journal Environmental Science & Technology.

Salmon, caribou  tested for radiation from Japanese reactor

 

Whether the salmon are affected by the radiation depends on what the salmon eat, Pitcher said, and also on the half-life of the particular radioactive isotope that entered the food chain from the reactor.

Pitcher said it is not likely the fish will reveal contamination, but it is important to test them and rule out the possibility. Other salmon species such as Koho and pink salmon do not migrate as far as sockeye and spend less time at sea, he said, so they are much less likely to be affected by the reactor failure.

HIGH levels RADIATION St. Louis, MO Snow

Uploaded by dutchsinse on Feb 13, 2012

READ ME NOW ! Count returning between 74cpm and 110cpm.. normal levels are 20-30cpm (as indicated by past tests done at the same location).

Several of my viewers already know , but if you're a new viewer please understand , I TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY THE REPORT OF HIGH LEVELS !! I drove across the country from North Carolina to Washington State taking readings after Fukushima Japan (over the summer 2011)... watch those videos here:

http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=dutchsinse+radiation+test

mostly LOW LEVELS were detected across the country. I reported low levels and told people things were "fine".. quote me .. "come to the west coast things look fine".

I reported that indeed LEVELS WERE LOW -- at the time -- nothing I could detect along these levels except in Colorado at 5,000 feet near granite rocks...

I always said, If I get a high reading I will Test and retest it to make sure its not an anomaly or incorrect -- thats why I have three geiger counters now and take multiple 10 minute readings.

So for me to take the time to report high levels, in the face of saying things were LOW back in June/July -- AFTER TAKING DOZENS OF READINGS ACROSS THE COUNTRY .. I don't take this responsibility lightly.

I have to put this information out and let you decide for yourself IF you want to take the risk. It pains me knowing that kids go sledding, that people build snowmen, that people EAT THE SNOW --- I can't in good conscience sit back and leave this unreported.




The next test INCLUDES ALL THREE GEIGER COUNTERS outside in the snow ! processing now ! 1120pm CST 2/13/2012 -- each video is in HD so its taking forever to get processed... and even longer than forever to upload it on youtube.




===============

convert CPM to uS/v or mS/v here:http://www.blackcatsystems.com/GM/converting_CPM_mRhr.html

quote:

"For those who prefer to use Sieverts, 108 CPM is about 1 uSv/hr for C060, and for Cs137 it is around 120 CPM per 1 uSv/hr. "

This means my first test @ 110CPM = 1 uS/v per hour. Which means 24 uS/v per day ....


24 uS/v per day X 365 days in a year = 8,760 uS/v per year !!! That is roughly 8.5 mS/v per year -- which equals about spending over an hour at chernobyl !! (that is per the PBS site below). We are coming up on one year from Fukushima -- if these levels continue it means we ALL spent over an hour at chernobyl if the levels carry on for a full year !!!!!


The second test (video you are watching now) = 74CPM ... thus meaning over the course of a year .. it is like spending OVER A HALF HOUR at chernobyl.


thats the rough math --- this is NOT good news.

how much radiation is too much? how am I coming up with the chernobyl exposure comparison? here is a chart to see:

http://www.pbs.org/wnet/need-to-know/the-daily-need/how-much-radiation-is-too...


=======


I have done two separate other measurements OUTSIDE in the snow directly -- 110 CPM .. and another test at approx. 62CPM.

Again.. High end 110CPM... middle test 74CPM.. low test 62CPM.

Normal is 20CPM to 30CPM based upon my past measurements with the same devices.



Be safe, don't ingest the snow, don't let the kids roll around in it.. keep the pets minimally exposed to it.


much love during these times,
