Meanwhile, over at Fukushima…….
“(Reuters)
– The robots sent in to find highly radioactive fuel at Fukushima’s
nuclear reactors have “died”; a subterranean “ice wall” around the
crippled plant meant to stop groundwater from becoming contaminated has
yet to be finished. And authorities still don’t how to dispose of highly
radioactive water stored in an ever mounting number of tanks around the
site.
Five
years ago, one of the worst earthquakes in history triggered a 10-metre
high tsunami that crashed into the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power
station causing multiple meltdowns. Nearly 19,000 people were killed or
left missing and 160,000 lost their homes and livelihoods.
Today,
the radiation at the Fukushima plant is still so powerful it has proven
impossible to get into its bowels to find and remove the extremely
dangerous blobs of melted fuel rods.
The
plant’s operator, Tokyo Electric Power Co (Tepco) <9501.t>, has
made some progress, such as removing hundreds of spent fuel roads in one
damaged building. But the technology needed to establish the location
of the melted fuel rods in the other three reactors at the plant has not
been developed.”
This figure is 11 percent higher than the total amount of radioactive cesium released by Chernobyl on both land and water, illustrating the true severity of the Fukushima disaster that the mainstream media is concealing from the public.”
And not a peep out of ANY of our mainstream news channels...
