Tepco is trying to kill everyone.
Report Comment
No, the governments of the world are letting Tepco kill everyone by not enforcing our rights.
Governments sue foreign organizations all the time on behalf of big-business, but when our lives are at stake they do nothing.
It's been almost a year, and no attempt has been made to contain the contamination. Instead, they've done the EXACT OPPOSITE and spread the radiation further. Why? The only logical conclusion is that they want us to die. Look at the UN's Agenda 21. This is all a part of their plan to reduce the world population.

Rough Transcript:
Fukushima Pipes are springing leaks, no insulation. These pipes will be insulated. These leaks are radioactive, and the water is going on the ground. No one knows if this water went to the ocean.
98% chance of earthquake large enough to bring down building 4, and spent fuel pool, within 3 years.
He explains that cold shutdown means temperature below 200 Fahrenheit, and all nuclear fuel is cool in a normally operating reactor. If fuel is melted, it is on floor and much hotter than 200 degrees Fahrenheit. That cannot be cold shutdown.
The outside of the corium blob is cool, but the inside will be hot for many years. The inside will be around 1,000 degrees. At 2,000 it is molten, but no one knows how hot it really is, because it is impossible to measure this.
They found that in Japan, cedar flower pollen are highly radioactive. 250,000 Bq/kg of pollen. They open up in spring, release pollen and the cesium along with it. People exposed will be getting about ten times what Tokyo residents are getting for a period of several months while pollen is floating around. This will also contaminate everything that was decontaminated.
This will not stop this year. Cesium lasts for 300 to 600 years, so this process will keep on going. 70% of Fukushima Prefecture is forest, and size of Conneticut. They are planning taking about 5cm soil off the entire area to 'decontaminate' it.
They are incinerating anything as long as the ash is less than 4,000 Bq/kg. They mix highly radioactive waste and dilute it with 'clean' waste. By doing this they are creating 100-1000 times more radioactive material. Tokyo Bay is a dumping ground for radioactive cesium. They are seeing radioactive cesium in the Bay. They are dispersing cesium all over Japan and the world, making the disaster even worse.

Dr Sashi, finished calculations around gases released in first couple days.. Iodine 133, 2 day half life. When kids absorbed this, it was part of load that kids absorbed, but it was gone by the time authorities measured for it, so it was not included in the total 'estimated' dose of iodine released from Fukushima at all, and was totally ignored. He was appalled by the high amounts that he calculated.
Xenon and Krypton are soluble and decay fairly rapidly but do damage on the way, but causes damage. Krypton decays to Strontium. There is an alphabet soup of this stuff, including plutonium, americium and more.. Cesium is the easy one to detect, and that is what they look for. Alpha radiation is common from many others.
Approximately 4 million people in this Prefecture. Many people were 'evacuated' into areas with higher radiation, and the government KNEW it was happening, but issued no warnings.
Kids in this area, 3000 tested, and 1000 had 'lumps'. To find lumps in children is extremely rare normally. The latent period for cancer is very short, 1 year. Children are very sensitive to radiation. To know you need to take them out. A cyst can have cancer cells in it. A tumor is just a collection of cells. Probably quite a few are cancers. They are about 5 mm in size. They are just monitoring them, waiting for the cancer to spread through the whole body. They could do a needle biopsy to find out what they are. This is medically irresponsible. At least they are starting to monitor them. This is only ten months in.. This predicts a real problem in the future.
They should have evacuated 250,000 to 500,000 people, and only 100,000 people were actually evacuated. The rest were left in radiated areas. 80% of radiation went offshore. Only 20% of total went onshore to land. They were lucky. More than 1/2 of Japan where people live is contaminated.
Report Comment
Cont; A lot of radiation is washing out to sea. Rivers are becoming more and more contaminated and concentrating in river sediment, which then concentrates in food chain, such as freshwater fish. Up to 53% of fish caught in ocean is contaminated by radiation off of Japan.
Small girls are five times more sensitive to radiation than small boys. These girls are at great risk of getting cancer due to radiation doses of 20 mSv per year. Frontline says this is 'safe' for kids and adults. One out of 500 people will get cancer at this dose.
Frontline did not dig far enough. When you look at Bear report, they are much more sensitive. One small girl out of 100 per YEAR will get cancer.
In five years, one out of 20 girls will end up with cancer during their lifetime. This process of increasing radiation risk and odds of getting cancer keeps going up, for each year that they are exposed to this level of radiation…. This cancer risk is ON TOP Of the normal odds of getting cancer in a lifetime. In the US, women have a one out of three chance of getting cancer, so this risk is on top of that one, assuming Japan has the same cancer risk factor for women in a lifetime. Fetuses are even more at risk.
He advises people to not go to Northern Japan, or to go skiing in the ski areas in Northern Japan.
Chernobyl toppled Communism, more than anything else, including US pressure. The same thing happened in Japan. One government was replaced by another fairly quickly after the accident. The risks to stable governments is enormous.
Radioactive cars and other items are being found in foreign countries. They look good, but no one is looking for this radiation. The people at the docks in foreign lands have been instructed to NOT LOOK FOR RADIATION in items imported from Japan.
Gunderson will be in Tokyo in mid February. He has a Japanese Only Book coming out, Fukushima; The Way Forward.
Report Comment
Dr Helen Caldicott MD; met with Reagan; estimated his IQ at an average of 100, diagnosed him with impending Alzheimers.. was ready to push the nuclear button, knew NOTHING about nuclear weapons, CIA reports, or effects of nuclear bombs. She held his hand for the hour or so she met with him.
If Fukushima breaks through containment we will have millions of cancers. How hard do we work to prevent this catastrophe. The nuclear industry
Book; Radioactive; about the Curies.. At turn of century, advances were dazzling. Boundaries of magic and reality were blurred. If we can see through flesh, how hard would it be to believe in teleportation, etc. They gave birth to death. She died of Aplastic Anemia, caused by radiation. Her daughter died of leukemia also. Her husband was run over by horse and buggy.
Weiskoff, Edward Teller, Jerry Wiesner, and many others were wracked with guilt because they caused the death of millions as inventors of nuclear weapons. They thought if they could harness atoms for peace, they would go to their graves innocent. They all died guilty. Atoms have not been harnessed for peace; just death and suffering.
(The newest development in nuclear power plants is plutonium based MOX fuel. Everyone wants to switch to it, from uranium. What effect will this have if an accident liberates plutonium into the air, as it was at Fukushima; reactor #3 released an estimated 600 pounds of plutonium) In a beagle dog study, all 144 dogs died of plutonium toxicty/radiation. There was no dose of plutonium low enough NOT to cause cancer. Even at a dose of 10 -9 grams, it still caused death.
Each reactor manufactures 250 kilos per year. Only a few pounds can make a nuclear bomb. It lasts for 250,000 years. It is treated like iron by the body. The nuclear industry lies continuously. They say there is a safe dose of radiation. This is a LIE. There is NO SAFE DOSE OF RADIATION.
Report Comment
Hi AGreenRoad, to emphasize your quote about the beagle dogs for those who don't listen to the program all the way through —
The dose of plutonium that killed the beagle dogs was, measured in grams, 10 to the minus 9 power. Ten multipled by ten, nine times. That's .000000001 gram or 1/100,000,000 gram.
Again, there was "no dose of plutonium low enough NOT to cause cancer."
Only a few kilograms can make a nuclear bomb. The half life of Pu 239 is 24,500 years or longer. 24,500 years is the amount of time needed to reduce the amount of plutonium by one half.
Maybe it sounds like we're preaching to the choir, but for people new to this discussion, it's important to know this.
It's also good to reiterate for the sake of "troll jousting" with anyone who shows up here and argues "low dose" exposure is safe.
As Dr. Caldicott and Arnie Gunderson emphasized in the program, the "low dose" argument is designed to deflect attention away from internal dose exposure. Internal dose exposure is much more harmful than external dose exposure.
The "low dose" argument kept me in the dark about the true risks of radiation exposure for many, many years.
The dilution of the radioactive elements by mixing radioactive waste with less radioactive waste, then incinerating it, is absolutely unconscionable. It is genocide by the collusion of Tepco and the Japanese government, against the Japanese citizens, and people everywhere.

Good point, thanks for the more specific definition of a hard to understand number… What would that amount be visually? Can you even see it? Is it a dust mote, amount on a head of a pin, or ????
Report Comment
Yes. Sometimes "troll jousting" is carried out on non-trolls merely to harden and exercise the specific muscles required for when a really powerful dangerous troll comes along.
The geometry of exposure is also an important factor with respect to 'contamination'….Is the contamination from a 'point source' within the lung/tissue or being taken up by specific organs or bone by tricking the body into metabolising it as calcium or iron like strontium 90 and Cesium 137 amongst many others.

I just listened to the whole thing, incl. Caldicott's speech after her interview with Arnie. Excellent, as usual, both of them.
Very, very grim outlook.
ELE or not, this is a world-changing event.
With these levels and amounts of radionuclides, and no end in sight to their emission, it is really horrific.
They pointed out, as I have read before, that the radionuclides get recycled over and over in the biosphere. So, this year the cedar pollen will be radioactive, and then again next year, and next year and so on because it is in soil, water, decaying organic matter on the ground etc.

Yes Arnie pointed out that cold-shut down is a term that only refers to stable reactors, a stable situation. It is just inaccurate and deceptive to use it in reference to damaged reactors in an out-of-control ever-changing condition.
Also re the huge # of thyroid lumps on Fukushima children, Caldicott said that finding ANY thyroid lumps on children is unusual, a rarity. 30% of children presenting with thyroid lumps is simply horrific and off the scale.
The lumps need to be biopsied to see if they are cancerous or pre-cancerous.

We physicians know that natural radiation causes evolution, small changes over long time periods. Most mutations are negative and cause disease. We carry 2,600 genes that cause disease. Most are recessive.
George Monbiot claims to be an expert, and said that no genetic deformites were noticed after Hiroshima/Nagasaki. Many were born miscarried, and other genetic deformities. Grossly deformed childrens are common around Chernobyl. Most genetic diseases show up many generations down the road.
Congressional representatives seem to worship nuclear apologists. Einstein said splitting of the atom changed everything, except for mans way of thinking. They think that nuclear bombs are like pistols. It is not the Dept. of Defense, it is the Dept of Death. The US is spending close to a Trillion Dollars on DEATH each year. We have no universal healthcare system because that is Communist.
"Nuclear power is a Hell of a way to boil water" Einstein
Why are we boiling water for 30 years with this dangerous and toxic stuff that kills people for 250,000 to BILLIONS of years, via plutonium and other long lived radioactive elements?
How has it become OK to raise the radiation limits arbitrarily from 100 MilliRems per year by double or triple (to 200 or even 300 MilliRems) from what a safe level used to be? (Could this be nuclear energy lobby influence?)
The Bear Report #7 (independent scientific global research based results) reports that no amount of radiation is OK or safe. One X-ray to the fetus doubles the risk of leukemia during their lifetime.. This data stands and is valid, and it is why pregnant women no longer receive Xrays. Medical school does not teach what internal radiation is, or what gamma radiation is. It does not teach about the effects of nuclear accidents or low level radiation exposure.
Report Comment
Cont. Dr Helen Caldicott MD;
Why do we use radiation to treat cancer? It kills actively dividing cells. This is why babies are 20-40 times more sensitive to the same dose.
TSA airport scanners are using Xrays. These radioactive emitters are radiating pregnant women, fetuses, babies and children. (Reports indicate that they generate much more health damaging radiation than is commonly reported) What are we doing about this? NOTHING.
(Alpha radiation is claimed to be safe because a piece of paper can block it. But alpha radiation is dangerous INSIDE the body, where cells rub up against each other, and alpha radiation kills cells, plus neighboring cells.) The radiation does not travel far, but it is grossly mutagenic, and it is highly cancer causing in the lung. Cells die and mutate, causing cancer.
Cancer is not immediate. Most people believe that radiation will kill you immediately. But that is only if you get get 250-500 REM's, where more than 1/2 of those exposed will die very shortly afterwards, such as the liquidators at Chernobyl and Fukushima, and those close enough to the atomic bomb blasts.
But leukemia caused by alpha radiation takes five years to actually be visible to a doctor. Solid tumors commonly take 10-15 or even 20 years to appear after the initiating radioactive exposure. Do we tell them that cancer does not have an ID tag. What if you eat chocolate?
Hershey's Chocolate factory is 15 miles from Three Mile Island or TMI, (which had a massive accidental INVISIBLE radiation release, and potentially contaminated milk, eggs, etc, which was then used to make chocolate with?)Many people were affected.

Plutonium radiation is commonly released from a nuclear plant meltdown. Plutonium acts like iron, and is transferred to the lymph glands, where it can (and does) cause lymphoma (a type of cancer).
Plutonium is transferred and stored in the liver, where it causes liver cancer. Plutonium is transferred to the bone marrow, where hemoglobin is stored, where it causes bone cancer or leukemia.
Plutonium even affects fetuses. The placenta blocks all toxins from affecting the baby, but plutonium crosses the barrier because the body thinks that it is iron. Once the plutonium is in the fetus or baby, it causes birth defects and cancer as well as one of 2,500 genetic diseases.
Report Comment
Cont. Dr Helen Caldicott MD;
Plutonium is attracted to and stored near the sperm producing bodies of the testicles. Once there, plutonium affects the sperm in a negative way, producing mutations that will be passed on genetically for countless future generations.
Once the plutonium and other radioactive elements enter the body, they never leave, until that person is cremated. The cremation process liberates the radiation, where it floats in the air, contaminating anyone breathing or touching whatever this radioactive plutonium laden dust lands on.
Cremation directly or indirectly leads to the next generation absorbing this SAME dose of plutonium, and passing on more birth defect causing plutonium, ad infinitum. (It may be time to rethink cremation, given this atomic age where everyone is contaminated) The end result of this process is an exponential increase in the amount of 2,600 genetic diseases found in future generations, FOR THE REST OF TIME.
I call this Random Compulsory Genetic Engineering – RCGE. How dare they subject all humanity to this (medical experimentation without informed consent and without disclosure)? It is not just humans that are being affected and experimented with.
We share this planet with 30 MILLION other species. They all have genes. They all share the same process for mutations and genetic diseases, malignencies, etc.
I did not learn about Beta radiation in medical school. It is a product of things like radioactive Iodine 131. I did not learn about Cesium 137 in medical school. (Radioactive Iodine goes to the thyroid gland where it causes thyroid cancer.
Cesium acts like Potassium, which is absorbed by the muscles. The heart is a muscle. Chernobyl studies show that cesium causes heart disease and heart attacks.)
Cesium 137 also goes to the brain, where it causes brain cancers. Cesium is also known for producing Sarcomas, another type of formerly very rare cancer.

Cont. Dr Helen Caldicott MD;
I did not learn about Cobalt 60. It is not a fission product but an activation product. I wrote about all of this in my book entitled "Radiation Is NOT The Answer". People do not understand that internal radiation produces very HIGH doses of radiation, that causes cancer and death. Yet, we do not teach doctors or the public this. Without understanding, we have an uninformed population.
An informed democracy will make an informed decision. An uninformed population and professionals will make an uninformed decision. Back in the 1970s, people said "It is better to be dead than Red". She said "Really? and they replied; Yea, we do not want to be Communists." (During the Cold War, people preferred continual atomic bomb tests due to the FEAR of Communism. They preferred the radiation over the Communist menace. Now Communist countries like China and Vietnam are most favored trading nations. Whatever happened to the fear of Communism? Where is the Communist menace? Why are we exporting all of our jobs to them?)
So we started doing the education about the nuclear bombing runs, and describing the consequences of what would happen if nuclear war actually happened, such as vaporization of millions of people, five mile vaporization and death zones, twenty mile burning of human flesh zones and so on.
We educated the population in five years, to be aware of the consequences to nuclear war. Populations rose up and decided that nuclear war is bad for our health. In five years, we educated 805 of Americans. In this time, the whole world rose up and ended nuclear bomb testing and the end of the Cold War. But the nuclear bombs remain. We are still living with these DEATH machines. These machines are silent. They are Krytogenic.

Angela Merkel used to be a physicist. She understands the dangers of Fukushima. But does she understand the radiobiology? Unless people globally understand these things, WE ARE DOOMED.
This is an exerpt from speech I gave in April, 2011, in Berlin to a large group of physicians.
This is an emotional subject. How many children have we 'helped' to die of cystic fibrosis, or one of 2,600 other genetic diseases caused directly by 'low level' radiation? It is the most heart rending experience imaginable. I am sorry.. I can't help but be emotional. And I think indeed, if we NOT EMOTIONAL, that there is something wrong with us (especially when confronted with an issue like this).
I will use the analogy. As a physician, if I have two parents in my office and I tell them that their child has just been diagnosed with leukemia and they show no emotional response, I refer them to a psychiatrist, because they need professional help with their grief.
Thanks for listening..
The above is a ROUGH transcript, with some modifications and additions, (mostly in paranthesis). This is not an exact word by word transcript, but mostly just to give those who do not want to listen to the whole thing, a rough idea of what she said.

My heart is breaking for all the children and their families who are being affected or will be affected by this horrific, tragic nightmare. My suspicion is that, psychologically-speaking, it is just too much for most people to be able to deal with.
But for our representatives in government, that is their job, to "deal with" problems facing their constituents and to ACT…not place their heads in the sand. Where are our leaders with the GUTS and conviction to take a strong stance NOW, before the problems begin to multiply? I for one would respect such leaders so much more and I believe most citizens would too, and would vote accordingly…
Are there really a lack of leaders today with an ability to project into the future and see the dangers to their constituents from ongoing exposures to "low level" radiation releases from Fukushima? By acting now, they also lessen their legal liability, for by NOT acting to warn citizens to take precautions, they are guilty of causing unnecessary harm…
Surely they must realize this? Or are they counting on science to be unable to prove a "cause and effect" when the lawsuits start happening…?
Sometimes I too wish I could turn the channel and watch a mindless tv show. (If I watched tv, that is…) But my sense of personal responsibility which my parents instilled in me brings me back to the real world, and I cannot help but speak up, especially, most especially for our PRECIOUS CHILDREN.

The problems that have gotten us where we are now are deep corruption and information control/censorship. Most people in the legislatures, at national and state levels, are controlled and go along to get along.
It really is organized crime, behind the false front, and not following orders gets them out of a job or worse. So 'bringing pressure to bear' on legislators etc. is an exercise in futility.
It has taken me a long time to realize this. Most of us are so naive that it just does not sound believable.
I know that many people who come to this website understand the realities; but others do not.
What the answers/solutions are, I don't know – we few who understand the realities of our situation are stuck between the rock and the hard place – a corrupt/co-opted gangsta government at all levels, and a populace who are brainwashed and in denial (to put it briefly).
People really don't want all of this to be true, just as much as an alcoholic does not want to admit that he/she is one.(Not dissing alcoholics – this world is enough to drive one to drink!) Denial is the most often used defense mechanism and hard to overcome – doesn't happen overnight. Most of us have come up against it when we try to tell people some of this stuff.
