[quote:Anonymous Coward 6383062:MV8xODgwNjQ5XzM0OTE2MzM1XzU3RDQ5RjU1] [quote:Anonymous Coward 24909641:MV8xODgwNjQ5XzM0OTE2MTc4XzRFOERGMjgy] [quote:Anonymous Coward 23766809:MV8xODgwNjQ5XzM0OTE1NjExXzc2RjE1NENC] I've been sounding the horn about this for a while now, but nobody seems to listen. Bottom line is, when TSHTF and our power grid goes down, all of our nuclear power plants will melt down. Not a question of if, but when. And it aint gonna be pretty. [/quote] [b] Won't they just take them offline?[/b] [/quote] A reactor can't just be taken off-line. It takes a loooooooong time for the fuel to cool. If the supply of cooling water or the power supply (to pump the water) are interrupted during shut-down, the core melts down. Eevn when reactors are in "cold shut-down" and "off-line", they have to have a supply of cooling water continuously circulated around them or else they melt down. It's a very serious potential problem. [/quote]

ou may have entertained the idea of an improbable civilization ending events such as a ‘global killer’ asteroid, earth crust displacement or massive solar storms, but what if there existed a situation right now that was so serious that it literally threatened our very existence?
According to a host of scientists, nuclear experts and researchers, were are facing exactly such a scenario – and current efforts may not be able to stop it.
When the Fukushima nuclear plants sustained structural damage and a catastrophic failure of their spent fuel cooling systems in the aftermath of the Japanese earthquake and Tsunami in 2011, it left the government of Japan, Tokyo Power and nuclear regulatory agencies around the world powerless to contain the release of deadly radiation. A year on, the battle for control of Fukushima continues to no avail.
It’s estimated that tens of thousands of people in Japan and the whole of North America have been affected, with reports indicating that children in Japan and the U.S. are already being born with birth defects, as well as thousands who have already succumbed to radiation related illness.
