Its even better then google translation and translated from german to english.

Yes it sucks i know ;-)

It says the maximum radioactive level on the food exported from japan to Europe is an factor 20(!) higher then normal since 23 march 2011.

And they dont said that in the news,not everyone know this info.

I say, bullshit, poppycock, horse shit, bull-pussy.  What's so fucking sick about the green movement is we have 10,000~20000 people dead from the earthquake and tsunami, and the media's focus is on radiation levels that are so small they can hardly be detected....no deaths that I know of from radiation, and very, very little escaped.  That's why reactors have containment domes.  did some escape? yes.  Short half life isiotopes of iodine, and some other elements.  The amount released is even insignificant compared to the nuclear tests of the 50's. 

But instead of showing compassion for the 10s of thousands of people dead and suffering from the earthquake and tsunami the focus has to be on some nearly non-existant threat from radiation.

Oh, you mean the three mile island accident that affected absoloutely no one?

True. There's an appeal to an invisible enemy such as radiation that draws much of the attention away from the thousands of deaths (the ultimate death toll will probably be in the 30,000-35,000 range) towards a phenomenon that is in terms of death toll negligible. I agree we don't always have our priorities straight in that sense. But caution is a good thing, nonetheless, and while the tsunami is over now and more deaths won't occur anymore as a result of it, radioactive contamination can remain a danger for years to come. So I can understand why some people are a bit afraid. Outside the north of Japan we don't need to be, though.

Quote:

and the media's focus is on radiation levels that are so small they can hardly be detected....



This is true outside the north of Japan. In Japan itself, levels are very easy to detect and at some places dangerously high.

Quote:

no deaths that I know of from radiation, and very, very little escaped.



Not very little, I wouldn't downplay this too much. And keep in mind that contaminated water keeps escaping the plant. The immediate vicinity of the plant is not an area where you want people to reside for longer periods of time. That's a significant effect. But yes, things could have been a lot worse indeed.

Quote:

  That's why reactors have containment domes.



The Fukushima plants don't have containment domes. They have containment vessels, which serve the same purpose, but the absence of a larger containment structure such as present in most Western nuclear power plants has very likely been a huge drawback in this case.

I haven't seen estimates of the total dose released at Fukushima to date, but yes, nuclear testing has had (and continues to have) a profound effect on the total dose received by many people in the Western world. Some nuclear tests have even resulted in dangerous exposure and even death. Still, Fukushima has been and continues to be a worrying case study. On the first day after the tsunami, I hoped that all would work out fine as the diesel generators came on and the pumps appeared to work. But the truth is inescapable that events unfolded into a civil nuclear disaster only topped by Chernobyl. The main problem I have with the concern of many people in the West is that they seem incapable of separating the local danger (significant in the direct vicinity of the plant) from the worldwide effects (negligible).

Response to some misleading claims about our measurements

Some claims have been made recently that our data shows that Bay Area water exceeds EPA regulations by a factor of 181 -- sometimes this has been reported as 18,100% higher, or erroneously as a factor of 18,100 higher. This claim is misleading. Specifically, the reports refer to the I-131 activity of 20.1 Bq/L measured in rainwater on 3/23. The EPA limit for I-131 is 3 pCi/L, or 0.111 Bq/L. There are a number of things wrong with this claim.

First, the measurement we made was of rainwater, not drinking water, so the drinking water limit does not apply. We instead should be discussing tap water, in which we detected a small amount of I-131 (0.024 Bq/L). This is a factor of almost 1,000 below the rainwater measurement and a factor of 4.6 below the EPA limit.

It should also be noted that the EPA limit assumes the water is ingested over the course of an entire year. That is, someone drinking 3 pCi/L water for an entire year would reach the EPA dose limit of 4 millirem, which is a very small dose. The tap water measurement of 0.024 Bq/L on 3/29 is our only detection of I-131; on subsequent days it could not be detected, probably due to the radioactive decay of I-131. So this tap water could have been ingested for at most 1 day, giving the public a dose 365 times smaller than if one assumes an entire year of ingestion. That means the tap water is effectively a factor of 1,700 below the EPA limit.

Finally, we believe that the clear decay in all isotopes shown in our air filtration measurements is an indication that water activity levels are declining at least for now.

One of them for sure had a complete  meltdown and the radiation levels surrounding it are one million times higher then normal levels preventing workers from getting in there and fixing it, there planning on pouring concrete over it and sealing it in.

No link, saw it on CNN a couple weeks ago. The radiation levels were so high that the workers couldnt stay around it for more then thirty minutes without getting a high enough dose of radiation as to make there hair fallout.

Nuclear threat level raised

Japanese authorities "provisionally" declared the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident a level 7 event, putting the crisis on par with the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
