The rediation must have hit that woman face. Whaat happened to her?
I don’t think people are worried about giant nuclear explosions as much as incidents like Fukushima which they still haven’t gotten a grip on all that damage. It’s the human factor that’s the issue in nuclear with decisions like building reactors on coast lines that are proven to be tsunami prone.
They do have a grip on it.
And building on the coast isn’t a wrong decision.
All lessons of daiichi have already been processed.
The perspective is wrong indeed, that’s because non of the succes is noted.
And the processed filtered water release is frame as nuclear water dump whenever it’s mentioned.
@ferkeap no they haven’t dealt with all the damage yet In fact they haven’t even managed retrieval of the fuel rods yet. The only thing they have a grip on is managing to have levels lower than the clean up group promised in water releases. Which is still higher than IAEA standards.
I hope it gets a really strong impact on the Davos visitors.
why would you cut it about the dna part!!
Nuclear? After Japan’s disaster! Are you crazy?????
Nuclear energy itself wasn’t the issue, it was the placement of the nuclear plant, right in an Tsunami zone. Obviously, it should have been much further inland/higher ground.
No one died at daiichi.
It had 3 meltdown.!
The ridiculous stories do harm people.
The treated water is also a non-issue.
Yet Greenpeace scream about, like Stone says they do.
@drumtravelfun not really.
The main issue was the unlogical placement of all the diesel second backupgenerator equipment.
And a not followed recommendation of a bit more hight of the sea wall.
More nuclear please.
The point about Fukushima, and the film shows it, is that the damage was all from the earthquake and tsunami. The power plant accident did not cause damage beyond the plant and did not kill anyone. The panicky evacuation did kill people, but nothing compared to the tsunami. Many people have died in Japan from the fossil fuels that replaced nuclear after 2011 — but that’s not dramatic so doesn’t get news coverage.
Learn the term: “Thorium Molten Salt Fission Reactors.”
These reactors can be everything everyone h o p e s fusion reactors will become.
