Don't go outside in Japan thanks to China 'particulates can cause cancer'.. nice scape goat

TOKYO —
The Environment Ministry has announced that it will recommend the public do not venture outside unless necessary on days on which fine particulate air pollution is high.
Particulate air pollution is believed to be coming from China to Japan. The smog has been dubbed PM2.5 in Japan. These particles, which are smaller than 2.5 micrometers in size, tend to penetrate into the lungs and the circulatory system. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association indicates that PM2.5 leads to high plaque deposits in arteries, causing vascular inflammation and a hardening of the arteries, which can lead to heart attacks and other cardiovascular problems.

Fuji TV reported Tuesday that the Environment Ministry says it is considering recommending people do not go outside unless necessary when the airborne density exceeds 35 micrograms per cubic liter. It will also recommend avoiding the use of ventilation while at home. Separate recommendations are to be drawn up for those with a history of heart and lung problems.

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that fine particulate air pollution causes mortality from cardiopulmonary disease, mortality from cancer of the trachea, bronchus, and lung, and mortality from acute respiratory infections in children under 5 years of age. Researchers suggest that even short-term exposure at elevated concentrations could significantly contribute to heart disease.

Yeah when i was living in South Korea I experienced the full force of the Yellow Dust from China.

I started coughing and so did everyone else the very day it appeared.

The Yellow dust on its own is a very serious problem.

However, I guess you really need to experience it for yourself to see this reality and how bad it actually is.

PM2.5 is not a scapegoat. It is an additional problem we in Japan currently face on top of radiation exposure. I hate China for this, Tokyo is either cloudy or sunny, but the air quality is generally very good especially for such a large metropolis. Now (and I mean RIGHT NOW) it is hazy and gross outside.. buildings I can usually see very clearly off in the distance are blurry because of the smog. It's gross.

Gundersen: Latest probe at Unit 1 indicates nuclear fuel has left containment (VIDEO)

July 1, 2012 At 2:30 in

Tokyo Electric ran a probe into the basement of Unit 1. This is not inside the containment, this is outside the containment. On the top of the water surface they found lethal radiation, 1000 rem an hour.

But then they put the probe down into the water and what’s even worse is the bottom, the sediment on the bottom, was thousand of times hotter than that. And what that indicates is that fuel, nuclear fuel, has left the containment, as particles, and settled out on the bottom outside the containment. So, I think that’s a pretty clear indication that the containment was breached. It just makes decommissioning these plants… it was going too be hard already, but this information makes it worse.

Ocean still suffering from Fukushima fallout

Continuing leaks and contaminated sediment keep radiation levels high.


[...]

New data presented at a conference held on 12–13 November at the University of Tokyo show that levels of radioactivity in the sea around the plant remain stable, rather than falling as expected. Researchers believe that run-off from rivers, as well as continued leaks from the plant, may be partially to blame. But contaminated sediment and marine organisms also seem to be involved.

[...]

The Fukushima disaster caused by far the largest discharge of radioactivity into the ocean ever seen. A new model presented by scientists from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts estimates that 16.2 petabecquerels (1015 becquerels) of radioactive caesium leaked from the plant — roughly the same amount that went into the atmosphere.

[...] in the region of the ocean near the plant, levels of caesium-137 have remained fixed at around 1,000 becquerels, a relatively high level compared to the natural background. Similarly, levels of radioactive caesium in bottom-dwelling fish remain pretty much unchanged more than 18 months after the accident.

Researchers at the conference are convinced that something is preventing the radiation levels from dropping. “There must be a source,” says Scott Fowler, an oceanographer at Stony Brook University in New York.

In fact, a fresh analysis by oceanographer Jota Kanda at the Tokyo University of Marine Science [estimates] the plant itself is leaking around 0.3 terabecquerels [0.3 trillion becquerels] per month [...]

 Quoting: CeeLite


The natural barrier was excavated to sea level for ease of
cargo transfer when they were building the plant.
The plant reactor buildings sit on bedrock[mudstone] with the basements below sea level.

They built sea walls, but they were not made as tall as the natural barrier which pre-existed the plant.
This was a Tepco decision.

And, yes.. they were informed by their own scientists that a tsunami could flood the plant..

They ignored the warnings.

Tepco is criminally guilty and responsible for this disaster.
