Tepco is planning on dumping all of the radioactive water stored at Fukushima into the ocean.

What happen to Arnie?

What's different

• The Americans: Japan's most important ally sends scientists and other advisers to help, but their participation is depicted at times as a nuisance. A Japanese-American special envoy (played impudently by Satomi Ishihara) asks where to find the nearest store of fashion retailer Zara, but she mainly mediates between Japan and the U.S., which worries that Godzilla might reach its shore. She resists a U.S. proposal to nuke Godzilla. "Is Japan going to have the atomic bomb dropped for the third time?" she asks mournfully. Given that Hollywood's "Godzilla" (2014) helped the Toho film studio decide to revive the series it originated, the United States has proved to be a true ally for the creature's silver-screen survival.

great lets turn this into a Godzilla movie

CitizenPerth, please be tolerant of my ignorance, but aren't most known materials tolerant to radiation only to a certain extent and they break down? Case in point those storage tanks?

We know steels deteriorate from it, I'm sure plastics or any other material must break down from neutron bombardment?

Honest question...

I'm not nuclear expert, but I do know, well, I do expect that all materials break down from sub atomic particles...

Isn't it inevitable anyhow that the stored waste is going into the Pacific regardless of Tepco's policies?

Glad this is pinned thanks CP for keeping us informed

CP, you have done a great job with keeping on this shit.
Jeff Rense is the only major alternative media that is following the death of the Pacific Ocean
It is all over, most of us who live around the pacific rim are in grave danger.
Many will still die .
Only an atomic war could do more damage to the planet.

THANKS.. MADE THAT AFTER TEPCO ADMITTED I WAS ASSIGNED AN ÄTOM-BOY"STRAIGHT FROM THEIR PAYROLL RATHER THAN FIXING SHIT....

"Contagious Cancer" ?

The industry-controlled nuclear regulators are pushing for dumping the radiation, as well.
As EneNews reports:

Juan Carlos Lentijo, head of IAEA’s mission to Fukushima Daiichi, Dec. 4, 2013: “Controlled discharge is a regular practice in all the nuclear facilities in the world. And what we are trying to say here is to consider this as one of the options to contribute to a good balance of risks and to stabilize the facility for the long term.”

Shunichi Tanaka, chairman of Japan’s Nuclear Regulation Authority, Dec. 4, 2013: “You cannot keep storing the water forever. We have to make choice comparing all risks involved.”

Xinhua, Dec. 4, 2013: Lentijo said that TEPCO should weigh the possible damaging effects of discharging toxic water against the total risks involved in the overall decommissioning work process. […] Tanaka highlighted the fact that while highly radioactive water could be decontaminated in around seven years, the amount of water containing tritium will keep rising, topping 700,000 tons in two years. […] nuclear experts have repeatedly pointed out that [tritium] is still a significant radiation hazard when inhaled, ingested via food or water, or absorbed through the skin. […] fisherman, industries and fisheries bodies in the Fukushima area and beyond in Japan’s northeast, have collectively baulked at the idea of releasing toxic water into the sea […] TEPCO will be duty-bound to submit assessments of the safety and environmental impact […]

NHK, Dec. 4, 2013: IAEA team leader Juan Carlos Lentijo […] said it is necessary and indispensable to assess the impact the tritium discharge might have on human health and the environment, and to get government approval as well as consent from concerned people.

Japan Times, Dec. 4, 2013: “Of course . . . public acceptance for this purpose is necessary,” said Lentijo, adding strict monitoring of the impact of the discharge would also be essential.

AFP, Dec. 4, 2013: [L]ocal fishermen, neighbouring countries and environmental groups all oppose the idea.

In the real world, there is no safe level of radiation.

And there are alternatives.

Dr. Arjun Makhijani – a recognized expert on nuclear power, who has testified before Congress, served as an expert witness in Nuclear Regulatory Commission proceedings, and been interviewed by many of the largest news organizations – told PBS in March:

We actually sent a proposal to Japan two years ago, some colleagues of mine and I, saying you should park a supertanker or a large tanker offshore, and put the water in it, and send it off someplace else so that the water treatment and the water management is not such a huge, constant issue. But [the Japanese declined].

Tepco – with no financial incentive to actually fix things – has been insanely irresponsible and has only been pretending to contain Fukushima. And see this.

Unfortunately, Japan has devolved into crony capitalism … and even tyranny.

So instead of doing something to contain the radiation, they’re going to dump it.
