Global Extinction Event: 2.8 Billion People At Risk-- Fukushima's 600,000 Spent Fuel Rods Housed In Unsafe Radiation Retention Pools--Global Experts Preparing To Relocate Families To Southern Hemisphere

Global leaders are suspiciously silent over a situation which could realistically be a global exction event. The ongoing vulnerability of the Fukushima reactor housings, particularly Reactor 4, are on the verge of total collapse. If the roof of Reactor 4 collapses, it might well be the straw that broke the camel’s back–and humanity’s as well. The resulting global gusher of radiation put most of the world’s human and biological populations at risk.

Doomsday is real and its name is Fukushima.

[T]he Reactor #4 building is on the verge of collapsing. Seismicity standards rate the building at a zero, meaning even a small earthquake could send it into a heap of rubble. And sitting at the top of the building, in a pool that is cracked, leaking, and precarious even without an earthquake, are 1565 fuel rods (give or take a few), some of them “fresh fuel” that was ready to go into the reactor on the m orning of March 11th when the earthquake and tsunami hit.

If they are MOX fuel, containing 6% plutonium, one fuel rod has the potential to kill 2.89 billion people. If this pool collapses, as Senator Wyden is now saying too, we would face a mass extinction event from the release of radiation in those rods. Readmore

Tons of radioactive water have already leaked through broken pipelines, spilling radiation into the water. Airborne radiation has reached the West Coast of the United States, endangering both human health and the nation’s food supply.


Tokyo Electric Power Co. said as much as 12 tons of radioactive water leaked from a pipe at its crippled Fukushima nuclear station, the second such incident in 11 days at the same pipeline, raising further doubts about the stability of the plant.

Part of the water may have poured into the sea through a drainage ditch, Osamu Yokokura, a spokesman for the utility, said by phone. The company known as Tepco stopped the leak from a pipe connecting a desalination unit and a tank today, he said. READMORE

In this case, time does not heal all wounds and the situation becomes more perilous by the day. Not that any of the nation’s various news outlets are sounding the alarm.

 

More than a year after a tsunami swamped the Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear power plants, the radiation peril continues — reactor 4 is teetering on the edge of collapse, which would force the evacuation of one-third of Japan’s population. The meltdown at Fukushima parallels the meltdown of the US economy.

On March 11, 2011, Japan experienced a 9.0 earthquake. The six nuclear plants at Fukushima — about 136 miles north of Tokyo — survived the quake but were swamped by a 45-foot wave that overwhelmed the 19-foot seawalls. Fukushima units 5 and 6 were in cold shutdown for maintenance and Unit 4 had been deactivated. Units 1,2, and 3 lost power and were unable to cool down properly; they experienced full meltdown. This was a catastrophe but there was a robust containment system that minimized the spread of contamination. READMORE

This is a dangerous situation that is more than 20 years in the making.  The question now is: can it be fixed?

According to Arnie Gundersen, a nuclear engineer at Fairewinds Associates and a member of the public oversight panel for the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant, which is identical to the Fukushima Daiichi unit 1, the failure to maintain pools of water that keep the 20 years worth of spent fuel rods cool could cause “catastrophic fires” and turn the crisis into “Chernobyl on steroids.” READMORE

The situation is so serious that many nuclear experts are preparing to relocate their families to the Southern Hemisphere.

      Where the hell do you get the “600,000 rods” from? That many rods couldn’t be stored at that site. It’s disinformation like this that causes people to not believe anything that is reported.

      Fear porn.

      • Usefuleater

        Fear Porn? So, tell me, how long have you worked for Tepco?

    • WTFU

      @Not Sure,she said 1565 rods mate.

      Tepco..boy theres a company you can trust.LOL.
      This has allways been a serious situation,covered up just like deep horizon by TPTB.What gets me is the stupidity of Tepco not to get internationa help in containing the place.

    • muckracker1

      Like a cat covering up crap in a litter box; “we doan need no help.”

      Just chill no body really dies, we are just container bodies for soul development…We get good and bad karma points based on our good and bad deeds and then we move on to higher civilizations in the galaxy.

      Earth is a school for all of us to learn and move on..no worries..do your thing…

      Nuclear is perfectly safe.

      Do not believe the liberal lies!!!!

      They are trying to deceive us into using solar and wind, which would destroy the global economy.

      Oil and nuclear are our only solution.

      As Sarah Palin said and got it right, “Drill baby drill”.

      Anon at 8:23, BOY, ARE YOU IN FOR AN ETERNAL SHOCK!

      IF this is really going to happen, then you had BETTER get right with Jesus Christ, NOW, WHO IS the ONLY Hope you have in this world or in the life (death) to come. Read the following Scriptures, and pray from your heart for salvation through Jesus’ perfect atonement for your sins, so you can ESCAPE the just wrath of GOD on a rebellious, sinful, and lost humanity. It’s as easy as A.B.C.:

      ADMIT you are a sinner who has offended the ONLY perfect, holy, righteous, Almighty, Eternal GOD Who created you. He cannot and will not allow UNREDEEMED sinners into heaven. Your only destination apart from being declared forgiven by Him through faith in Jesus Christ is the same as Satan’s: HELL

      BELIEVE Jesus Christ lived a perfect sinless life – the only Man or woman who ever has – and DIED on the cross in YOUR place to take the rightful punishment for your sins that you deserve. He died for the sins of all who put their faith in HIM and in HIM alone; BELIEVE He rose from the dead just as He said He would, to give YOU the promise of eternal life, and that He ascended into heaven, AND that He IS coming back for all people who have been born again by His Holy Spirit.

      CONFESS with your mouth that “Jesus is LORD” and share the marvelous Good News that JESUS ALONE SAVES with everyone you meet. This is a COMMANDMENT (the Great Commission), NOT a choice.

      John 3:3, John 3:16, John 14:6, Romans 1:18-32, Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Revelation 20:11-15

      Dude please shut up! Anon pretty cool way to see it. I say awesome.

      @Wake up……WAKE UP!! Or do you like the idea of spending eternity in Hell?

      Poison skies: Hanging over Japan is a Fukushima nuclear crisis that’s far from over http://theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com/

      TO: not sure POSTER….

      The Fukushima Daiichi plant has seven pools dedicated to spent fuel rods. These are located at the top of six reactor buildings – or were until explosions and fires ravaged the plant. On the ground level there is a common pool in a separate building that was critical damaged by the tsunami. Each reactor building pool holds 3,450 fuel rod assemblies and the common pool holds 6,291 fuel rod assemblies. Each assembly holds sixty-three fuel rods. In short, the Fukushima Daiichi plant contains over 600,000 spent fuel rods – a massive amount of radiation that will soon be released into the atmosphere.

      i doubt the TPTB are interessted simply wiping out half of earth population. they want the right ones to die and the right ones to life.
      what would they do if mainly uneducated religous fanatics would survive ? this doesnt serve their purpose at all.
      they want people to survive which share their agenda and will be willingly ruled by them, good workers for their version of a future without other ‘gods’ besides TPTB.
      this can only be archived by war , not by an uncontrollable extinction event.

    • muckracker1

      At some point all of our machinations grow beyond our control. Whether Fukushima is or is not an extinction event, we will never know; we do know that the incidents of cancers and radiation derived sickness are increasing; look at what Chernyoble did, and that was a blip compared to Fukushima. Birth defects, cancers are continuing from that.
