The design
build recklessness is really staggering, to build such a flawed design on unstable fill
material with high volume mountain subterranean water courses on active seismic
strata. The stupidity of placing the diesel back up power where tsunami waters
could flood them, leaving the nuclear reactor without any cooling. Then to punctuate all prior insanity, they
store the spent fuel in a cooling tank 50 ft above ground!
For a highly
technical engineer trained society with extensive capital resources providing the
wherewithal to access solution technologies from around the world, the measures
taken to date can be generously described as just totally lame, LAME !!
What could
have and should have been done this could have locally contained the toxic mess,
limited to a few hundred square miles and manageable. Japan’s wanton genocide response
has been to take a difficult Japanese problem and balance sheet transfer their potential
liability, to the whole pacific and in the caesium clouds tracked all over the northern hemisphere. They
might have saved themselves some political face and even a few billion dollars
but they screwed the world big time and it will have blowback effect.
The world
will eventually come to see Fukushima as an extinction event. Why? The data
while jammed with plenty of noise clearly shows that to be the case. Thousands
of miles of the BC Alaska coastline are virtually species barren since the 4 reactor
meltdown event. If Japan wishes to enjoy its present standing in the world
community then it might consider adhering to what the rest of consider good neighbourly
spirit behavior and does not include standing by while they do nothing to stop the cesium avalanch into the species barren dead pacific.
The world will appreciate at some point that it will no longer tollerate Japan's steadfast prideful position on this dissaster and solve in spite of them. GE, don't think for a minute we that we are not congnacent of your reckless behavior and libilities.
