Fukushima Trouble  Japan Hosts  Nuclear Safety  Meeting upda
Channel: ottomadicly
Date: 2012-11-25

Japan to hold an international meeting with 30 other countries next month to discuss "decommissioning the troubled (just troubled) reactors", decontamination (can't be done), and safety measures of other people living around other reactors in case of another accident. Way to Plan Ahead! Well, better late than never I guess, eh? WTF.

Here's a document that shows that the NRC has Not learned anything from the Fukushima disaster and delays decisions as to what to do.

A nice little Earthquake Jolts Tokyo, and other regions of Japan, halting the bullet train. Other Earthquakes rock Japan, some quite large 5.1mag near the Onagawa nuclear power plant again today.

Michio Kaku tries not to alarm people as to the severity of bioaccumulation of radioactive cesium in Tuna. Downplaying it quite a bit.
