that was an oops 75 thousand gallons of highly radioactive water,, but you know what I meant ohh wait I know you are a perfect soul..

So I don't doubt there has been misinfo. They have been caught doing this. More testing and monitoring is really important.
....Kajima Corporation will build the 1.4-kilometre wall by sinking pipes carrying freezing fluids into the ground, gradually freezing it to form a barrier of permafrost 30 metres deep, down to the bedrock. This will force the water to drain into the sea instead.
I read about that a few months ago.. I guess once they get that system fully installed they will have to pump out excess water, because that water will have to go somewhere and if it cant go into the ocean the only place it can go is up. kinda like new Orleans being a big bowl.. personally I think it will be a freaking nightmare.. once that water gets to a certain level they will have to pump it into tanks. and at 300 plus Tepco liar tons that's a lot of tanks they will be filling in the future..
This is a world tragedy and will effect EVERYONE on the planet! Why cant they stop this before everything in the ocean is dead. They are saying the radiation will outlive us all and that it could take up to 40 YEARS to clean this up. Japan better start ponying up some cash to pay for this.
And why aren't the tree huggers fighting this and the LIBERAL Media
Take a look at the map its frightening as of OCTOBER 30, 2013
The bears were among 33 spotted near Barrow, Alaska, during routine survey work along the Arctic coastline. Tests showed they had “alopecia, or loss of fur, and other skin lesions,” the U.S. Geological Survey said in a statement.
There is an epidemic of sea lion deaths along the California coastline…
Something is causing fish all along the west coast of Canada to bleed from their gills, bellies and eyeballs.
One test in California found that 15 out of 15 bluefin tuna were contaminated with radiation from Fukushima.
BBC News recently reported that radiation levels around Fukushima are “18 times higher” than previously believed.
These are incidental events and need to be evaluated in a scientific manner to determine whether there is a cause and effect. One could similarly say that the radiation levels transiently lowered the IQs of every American by 30 points, thus allowing Obama to be re-elected.
No they won't. We aren't capable of destroying it. Making it inhabitable? maybe, but not destroy it. The planet will outlive every single life form that currently exists and regenerate itself in time.
George Carlin, is that you? The planet isn't going anywhere.... WE ARE!!!
One can also add the Fortunate Dragon a Japanese fishing boat that got dusted by nuclear fallout from the Castle Bravo Thermonuclear test in 1956. Radioactive Tuna caused quite a panic in Japan. Glow in the dark Sushi!
you do realize the size of a nuclear blast that would be required to push the moon into a lower and decaying orbit right? and you do realize that even if we used ALL the nuclear weapons ever made in this world it wouldnt be enough? and even if it was, it would still take perhaps one million years before the moon fell far enough to have a greater effect on the planet than it does now? and that it would perhaps another million or two before the moon actually entered a death spiral orbit, and perhaps another few thousand years before it hit the planet. now given that, do you really think that we would be around to see the moon collide with earth? especially since the moon is currently moving away from the earth.
1) It would literally take hundreds of billions of nuclear blasts to push the moon towards the Earth at a speed enough so that it would eventually reach the Roche limit. The moon is currently receding from the Earth at a rate of ~4 cm/year.
2) The aforementioned Roche limit; when the Moon reached an orbit of approximately 18,500 km, the Earth's tidal forces acting upon the Moon would overcome the self-attraction of the matter of the moon, and it would be destroyed, its remnants becoming rings orbiting the Earth.
