Fukushima schools unsafe after clean-up

Greenpeace: Fukushima schools unsafe after clean-up

This is frightening--poor Japanese people. Their tribulations keep coming, it seems.

Greenpeace said on Monday that schools and surrounding areas located 60 km (38 miles) from Japan's tsunami-hit nuclear power plant were unsafe for children, showing radiation readings as much as 70 times internationally accepted levels.

The environmental group took samples at and near three schools in Fukushima city, well outside the 20 km exclusion zone from Tokyo Electric Power's stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear complex in Japan's northeast.

"No parent should have to choose between radiation exposure and education for their child," said Kazue Suzuki, Greenpeace Japan's anti-nuclear project head.

The government had already taken steps to decontaminate schools in Fukushima prefecture, where the crippled plant has been leaking radiation since it was hit by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami.

Calling the measures "deplorably late and inadequate," Greenpeace said it had found average dose rates above the maximum allowed under international standards, of 1 millisievert per year, or 0.11 microsievert per hour.

Fukushima will slowly kill millions

Fukushima Is Continually Blasting All Of Us With High Levels Of Cesium, Strontium And Plutonium And Will Slowly Kill Millions For Years To Come

Holy cow...

Fukushima is now far and away the worst nuclear disaster in all of human history. Chernobyl was a Sunday picnic compared to Fukushima and the amount of cesium-137 released at Fukushima this year so far is equivalent to 168 Hiroshima bombs. The crisis at Fukushima is far, far worse than you have been told. We are talking about multiple self-sustaining nuclear meltdowns that will not be fully contained for years. In an attempt to keep people calm, authorities in Japan (and around the rest of the world as well) have lied and lied and lied. Over the months that have passed since the disaster began, small bits of the truth have slowly started to come out. Authorities are finally admitting that the area immediately surrounding Fukushima will be uninhabitable indefinitely, and they are finally admitting that the amount of radioactive material that has been released is far higher than initially reported. It is going to take the Japanese years to fully contain this problem. Meanwhile, Fukushima will continue to blast all of us with high levels of cesium, strontium and plutonium and will slowly kill millions of people around the globe for years to come.

These days, the mainstream media does not talk about Fukushima much. The reality is that there have been a whole lot of other disasters for them to talk about.

But just because Fukushima is a nightmare that is playing out in very slow motion does not mean that it does not deserve our full attention.

Tokyo is already being affected

According to some sources, things have already gotten very serious in Tokyo.

Dr. Chris Busby recently traveled to Japan with some very sophisticated testing equipment and found one sample in Tokyo that had levels of radioactivity that were higher than the exclusion zone surrounding Chernobyl during that nuclear disaster.

But things are much worse for those living much closer to Fukushima. High levels of cesium have been detected in the urine and in the breast milk of those living in the region surrounding the facility. All over the area there are reports of people coming down with the symptoms of radiation sickness.

Mr Empirical scientist Thought he was bringing his "salvation" to the world bringing "fire down from heaven" technology, Revelation 13:13 would not enter his just the facts about his science "salvation" get in his way. All his hard work Mr. Scientist do he thought he had a right for little reward desert from his hard thinking to take pictures of young girls dressed like sluts and why not he say with this pornography explosion product of our evolution so he became a DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY old man

Pictures of girls struck down by poverty or girls wearing head covering make the mob scream : "I am Victim I am Victim having to have my Beauty eyes look at women wearing head covering "

I pray : Please God have mercy on us we easily tricked to commit very serious sins pretending to be in the right

Chernobyl is arguably inhabitable for people 55 and older anyway, from an actuarial point of view, and people 40+ with no children could live there reasonably safe within this century. 100-200 years of environmental damage is par for the course for mining and other industries. People just have unreasonable expectations for nuclear power, that are not applied to everything else. The hysteria over nuclear accidents has always been silly.
