[quote:eternalu:MV8xODE4OTA5XzMwMjg1NTYzXzcwNzg2QjA2] :moshpit: Arnie Gundersen, thank God you're telling it like it is. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister of Canada went to Tokyo yesterday. The CBC refused to post my comment telling him to avoid having fish for dinner. "Try the sushi, Prime Minister!" The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation also announced that PM Stephen Harper wants free trade with Japan. Perfect - so Canada can get all the radioactive crap the rest of the world doesn't want coming into their ports. :Canadian F: [/quote]
Original Message
While traveling in Japan several weeks ago, Fairewinds’ Arnie Gundersen took soil samples in Tokyo public parks, playgrounds, and rooftop gardens. All the samples would be considered nuclear waste if found here in the US. This level of contamination is currently being discovered throughout Japan. At the US NRC Regulatory Information Conference in Washington, DC March 13 to March 15, the NRC's Chairman, Dr. Gregory Jaczko emphasized his concern that the NRC and the nuclear industry presently do not consider the costs of mass evacuations and radioactive contamination in their cost benefit analysis used to license nuclear power plants. Furthermore, Fairewinds believes that evacuation costs near a US nuclear plant could easily exceed one trillion dollars and contaminated land would be uninhabitable for generations.
