Thousands rally in Tokyo to demand end to nukes ahead of 2nd anniversary of Fukushima disaster

The science says that northern Japan probably should be evacuated, yesterday.

For two years now the one plant that we know of, with 3 melted and uncontrolled reactor cores breathing their venom into the air, have been laying down a film of radioactivity across Japan. And some of it even reaches the US. Indeed the whole world by now.

On the ground experience?

Tell that to the EPA who found radioactive particles from Fukushima all over the US.

which is energy, can not be transmitted from Japan to the USofA. The difference is important.

The particles emit radiation. The particles carried the radiation with them. The particles landed here and commenced radiating radiation. We have radiation here, in the US, spread all over the place, and it came from Japan.

Now what is so important about your concept?

Cuz it shows you don't know what you are saying.

There is no 'safe' exposure to radiation

Bioaccumulation is one reason why it is dishonest to equate the danger to humans living 5,000 miles away from Japan with the minute concentrations measured in our air. If we tried, we would now likely be able to measure radioactive iodine, cesium, and strontium bioaccumulating in human embryos in this country. Pregnant women, are you OK with that?

Hermann Mueller, another Nobel Prize winner, is one of many scientists who would not have been OK with that. In a 1964 study, "Radiation and Heredity", Mueller spelled out the genetic damage of ionizing radiation on humans. He predicted the gradual reduction of the survival of the human species as exposure to radioactivity steadily increased. Indeed, sperm counts, sperm viability and fertility rates worldwide have been dropping for decades.

These scientists and their warnings have never been disproven, but they are currently widely ignored. Their message is very clear: Virtually every human on Earth carries the nuclear legacy, a genetic footprint contaminated by the Cold War, Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, the 400-plus nuclear power plants that have not melted down and now Fukushima.

Albert Einstein said, "The splitting of the atom changed everything, save man's mode of thinking; thus we drift towards unparalleled catastrophe."

"..Contamination emits radiation"

You are slow, but you are getting there. No wonder nuclear power is able to get away with their lies when people like you are so convoluted.

If you read the article I posted the link to, you will notice that a most famous scientist is the one who says there is no safe dose of radiation. I'm just going with what the science says.

And there you are arguing against the known science. The nuke power plant people just love folks like you.

How you can sit there and be all over the place, I don't understand.



Here's another bit of info you are gonna hate:

But what does this mean? From this record of studied and lived experience, there are a few things that we know. For example, fallout and the movement of radionuclides through marine and terrestrial environments ultimately get into the food chain and the human body. The toxicity of contaminants and radioactivity in fallout represent significant health risks.

Acute exposures are further complicated when followed by chronic exposure, as such assaults have a cumulative and synergistic effect on health and well-being. Chronic exposure to fallout does more than increase the risk of developing cancers, it threatens the immune system, can exacerbate pre-existing conditions, affects fertility, increases rates of birth defects, and can retard physical and mental development, among other things. And we know the effects of such exposures can last for generations.

Japan's nuclear disaster demonstrates in powerful and poignant terms the degree to which the state prioritizes security interests over the fundamental rights of people and their environment. Japan's response to its nuclear disaster -- similar to other government responses to catastrophic events like Katrina and Chernobyl -- has struggled to control the content and flow of information to prevent wide panic (and the related loss of trust in government), reduce liability, and protect nuclear and other industry agendas.

I blame Bushco.
They HAD to have something to do with this!

You're back?

The EPA says, to use your words, that the US was contaminated by radioactive particles from Fukushima.

You say that contamination emits radiation.

Therefore, you surely must see that we are being radiated by the particulate contamination from Japan that emits radiation. We have radiation on the ground, here in the US, from Fukushima. That is from the EPA.

Your own words confirm my readings of the science. If you have not read the science, well, that's your problem. You can read it from the links I C+P just as I did. Or not.

As for the low doses, as in the one article I read, then pasted here, you can see that the idea of accumulation is the real matter. Being that the contamination from Japan was spread across the world, it has gotten into our food, our water and is in dust. We eat it, we drink it and we breathe it. It accumulates in our bodies. It adds up. And it keeps radiating, some particles radiate for +100's of years. Radioactive Cesium is one among many particles that flew all the way from Japan to the US.

Those are facts. That is the science.

Now I see why: You were a "... nuclear engineer for 39 years"

Your convoluted words now make sense.

What we have here is a failure to communicate. But I read you fine, and what I read is you spreading disinfo. What i am laying out here is science, which, when it comes down to it, you agree with.

Radiating contaminated particles accumulate in our bodies. We do gather it up in one place. In our bodies. That is why, imo, we have so much cancer.

I tried to be polite. Go pester someone else. You are on ignore.

You removed almost all of your posts. What's up with that?

Are you ashamed you kept saying that I was the one spreading disinfo?

Here is one more bit of info from a Doctor:


Is the Increase in Baby Deaths in the US a Result of Fukushima Fallout?
by JANETTE D. SHERMAN, MD And JOSEPH MANGANO

U.S. babies are dying at an increased rate. While the United States spends billions on medical care, as of 2006, the US ranked 28th in the world in infant mortality, more than twice that of the lowest ranked countries. (DHHS, CDC, National Center for Health Statistics. Health United States 2010, Table 20, p. 131, February 2011.)

The recent CDC Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report indicates that eight cities in the northwest U.S. (Boise ID, Seattle WA, Portland OR, plus the northern California cities of Santa Cruz, Sacramento, San Francisco, San Jose, and Berkeley) reported the following data on deaths among those younger than one year of age:

4 weeks ending March 19, 2011 - 37 deaths (avg. 9.25 per week)
10 weeks ending May 28, 2011 - 125 deaths (avg.12.50 per week)

This amounts to an increase of 35% (the total for the entire U.S. rose about 2.3%), and is statistically significant. Of further significance is that those dates include the four weeks before and the ten weeks after the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant disaster. In 2001 the infant mortality was 6.834 per 1000 live births, increasing to 6.845 in 2007. All years from 2002 to 2007 were higher than the 2001 rate.
