Too few are aware of the global catastrophe caused by Fukushima disaster

Voice crying in the wilderness:  We are experiencing a global wakeup call re the dangers of nuclear power -- but how many are paying attention?  Today's news tells of the tons of debris washing up on America's western shores from the Fukushima nuclear disaster--with the EPA admitting they have no way to deal with it.  Another earthquake occurred in Tokyo today as well.  The radiation levels on the west coast  (particularly in our area of central/northern California, in Oregon, and Washington state) are very high but are not being measured by the officials, no doubt because to do so would make apparent to the people how dangerous the situation really is.  There is very little in the mainstream news about any of this and little talk of doing away with nuclear power entirely.  The risk of Japan having another quake in the Fukushima region is extremely high, and Reactor #4 would, almost without a doubt, have a complete collapse, spewing tons more deadly radiation into the atmosphere.

Excerpt:
Most of the world community is still unaware of the extremely profound and far-reaching effects that the Fukushima nuclear disaster has had. If the nations of the world really understood the implications of the actual ‘fallout’ – past, current and future – the current nuclear energy paradigm would be systematically shut down. For those of us who are in the know, it is incumbent upon each of us to disseminate the relevant information/data necessary to forever close down the nuclear power industry around the globe.

A Special Report On the Fukushima Nuclear Catastrophe

“Does anyone in their right mind believe that nuclear power plants can ever be designed, engineered or constructed to withstand 9.0 earthquakes followed by 15 meter high tsunamis? Sorry if we offend, but such a display of so deadly a combination of ignorance and arrogance must represent the very height of hubris. Particularly in view of the inevitable consequences which have manifested at Fukushima, how is it that so few saw this pre-ordained and disastrous outcome, except by willful blindness?”
Japan: A Nation Consigned To Nuclear Armageddon

Numerous headlines over the past few weeks have been relentless in trumpeting Japan’s begrudging response to this global wakeup call. For the first time since nuclear power has been used in the land of Nippon, all 55 nuclear power plants now sit idle. This is of course very good news for the people of Japan. The question now remains how to go about remediating all of these vulnerable and unsafe nuclear reactors. Particularly because of those nuclear plants that are located anywhere along the Japanese coastline is this remediation imperative an existential necessity.

AND READ THIS, from article at: http://www.infowars.com/fukushima-is-falling-apart-are-you-ready-for-a-mass-extinction-event/:

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, 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.

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, have been trying to sound the alarm ever since.
