In a move that has sparked outrage from local residents and dire health warnings from environmentalists, the Japanese government is reportedly planning to release 1.09 million tons of water from the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant into the Pacific Ocean despite evidence that it contains “radioactive material well above legally permitted levels.” While both the Japanese government and Tokyo Electric […]
News Coverage Of Fukushima Disaster Minimized Health Risks To General Population
Seven years after the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, the disaster no longer dominates U.S. news headlines, though the disabled plant continues to pour three tons of radioactive water into the ocean each day. Homes, schools and businesses in the Japanese prefecture are uninhabitable, and will likely be so forever. Yet the U.S. media has […]
New Evidence Of Nuclear Fuel Releases Found At Fukushima
Uranium and other radioactive materials, such as caesium and technetium, have been found in tiny particles released from the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors. This could mean the environmental impact from the fallout may last much longer than previously expected according to a new study by a team of international researchers, including scientists from The […]
Study Finds Trace Amounts Of Radiation In Migratory Salmon From Columbia River
Fukushima radiation continues to contaminate West Coast fish. In early December, a number of news agencies reported seaborne radiation from Japan’s Fukushima Nuclear plant was detected in the Pacific Ocean along on the West Coast. The plant, which first leaked radiation into the Pacific in 2011 following a massive earthquake and tsunami that killed nearly […]
Rig, Rad, Run: Radiation Monitoring, Fukushima, and Our Nuclear Dystopia
‘RIG, RAD, RUN: Radiation Monitoring, Fukushima, and Our Nuclear Dystopia’ addresses the shortcomings and manipulations in the radiation monitoring responses of the U.S. EPA and FDA in the wake of the Fukushima disaster. In the book, author Andrew Kishner argues that preconceived, unscientific notions corrupted the EPA’s sampling and testing activities to monitor Fukushima radiation […]
Return To Fukushima: Eerie Pictures Show After-Effects Of Nuclear Chain Reaction
Nuclear meltdown. It is the worst nightmare of modern humanity. Forces we barely understand that seem so fundamentally powerful and dangerous that we think of them only in terms of profound unease. Isotopic radiation – the worst of all monsters, the invisible fiend that can alter our very DNA. An idea so terrifying that the […]
Fukushima Radiation Is Constantly Increasing, And Is Steadily Building Up In Our Food Chain
Cesium-134, the fingerprint of seaborne radiation from the nuclear disaster at Fukushima in Japan, has been detected on the West Coast of the United States for the first time, as well as in Canadian salmon. Seaborne radiation from Japan’s Fukushima nuclear disaster has been detected in seawater samples taken from Tillamook Bay and Gold Beach […]
Help Mothers In Fukushima Start A Health Clinic Next To The Radiation Lab
The mothers of Fukushima need the support of people from all over Japan and around the world to make the Mothers’ Radiation Lab & Clinic Fukushima a reality. Help in any way you can. The children of Fukushima are still exposed to the invisible threat of radiation. We are now urgently working to start up […]
Fukushima Effects On Pacific Ocean Sea Food 2011 – FOREVER
If you eat sea food contaminated with man made radiation what does it mean? How much is too much? How little is to much? You don’t want to eat seafood from the Pacific, there are other oceans. But, they may not be safe either. Look at the radioactive fallout. There are so many things on […]
Radiation Protection With Apple-Pectin
Apple pectin has the ability to sweep out radioactive dust particles from the intestinal tract, and it was used extensively after the Chernobyl nuclear plant meltdown. Apple pectin, for example, along with other fruits that contain this soluble fiber and polysaccharride carbohydrates are great radioprotective agents. A study showed that apple pectin can absorb and […]
