“The number of children and grandchildren with cancer in their bones, with leukemia in their blood, or with poison in their lungs might seem statistically small to some, in comparison with natural health hazards. But this is not a natural health hazard—and it is not a statistical issue. The loss of even one human life, or the malformation of even one baby—who may be born long after we are gone—should be of concern to us all. Our children and grandchildren are not merely statistics toward which we can be indifferent.”

John F. Kennedy, July 26th, 1963

Fukushima Update: Highest Radiation Levels Found to Date

From: Nation of Change

If you’ve been paying attention to the Fukushima incident, you will want to be informed of this newly released information by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). 63,000 becquerels of radioactive materials have been detected in groundwater samples taken from a well at the No. 1 nuclear plant, just five miles from the coast, a massive increase from the previous high level of radiation leakage detected at just 67 becquerels, according to the company. 
The sample was taken less than two weeks ago, and the company is taking no measures to be certain the tainted water doesn’t flow into the sea. Even TEPCO’s own standards require that anything tainted with strontium, tritium and caesium to these levels should not be dumped into the Pacific Ocean. In a recent press release, the company outlines the tritium and cesium density of the Daiichi plant water samples.
