    Could Nuclear Reactors Cause More Long-Term Contamination Than Nuclear Bombs?

    interesting idea, i believe that nuclear reactors would be responsible for a lot of radiation contamination for much of the entire planet.

    Fukushima How will they end the Fukushima disaster?

    i wonder that myself. i have read reports that there seems to be a lot of radioactive water in buildings hundreds of yards from the failed fukushima reactors.

    Could Nuclear Reactors Cause More Long-Term Contamination Than Nuclear Bombs?

    that's what I'm thinking. with two partially and/or completely destroyed fuel rod pools, and no way to cool them, this could only lead to more disasterous consequences. i was under the impression that reactor number 2 has been completely destroyed in the explosion.

    Fukushima How will they end the Fukushima disaster?

    the radiation readings outside the exclusion zone at Fukushima dai-ichi, are above the maximum readings at chernobyl. the area around Fukushima dai-ichi will have to be permanently abandoned, TEPCO has already stated they will scrap the reactors. there is nothing to save.

    Radioactive materials irrational fears

    you're not irrational, your fears are well founded concerning toxic radionuclides and other radioactive substances. and the radioactive plumes now being delivered to north america and the northern hemisphere. listen to the experts, they know everything, and if they don't they will promptly admit...

    Photo showing decimated reactor building troubles me

    i agree that is very troubling.

    Pumping liquid rad waste to ocean vs land

    yes it's a very bad idea. and i don't think there is a better plan, if for no other reason because it is highly radioactive. i think that TEPCO has run out of viable options at this point, putting the toxic waste in the ground would ruin the water table underneath the island.
