TEPCO, the operator of crippled Fukushima nuclear plant, said on Saturday that it found a record 1.9 million becquerels per liter of radioactive substances at the damaged reactor. The company added that the latest examination of groundwater around Reactor 4 has raised concerns about another leak at the site. The analysis of water samples taken from 25 meters beneath Reactor 4’s well has shown that there is radioactivity in the groundwater. Nuclear radiation exposure can cause serious health problems. The first signs of nuclear radiation exposure are nausea and vomiting. It can increase the probability of developing some other diseases, mainly cancer, tumors, and genetic disorders.
Note: Each day brings another discovery of a leak at Fukushima. The news reports this as "new" but it is already known that the situation at Fukushima is more than dire and TEPCO lives in a world where deceit is the norm. It is likely two, three (or more) times worse than is reported. The jury is still out on why our ocean life is dying and behaving strangely but you cannot push this much toxin into a body of water and not expected life to die. Despite the statements that the "dose is too low". This is a planet changing event and the future of all of our generations is at peril. Japan, nor any other country for that matter, is not taking responsibility to end this disaster with a war like vengeance against this invisible terror. There is no peril or terrorist on earth at this point that is more deadly than this plant. Will it ever be over? That is doubtful.
Modern industrial society is a fanatical religion. We are demolishing, poisoning, destroying all life-systems on the planet. We are signing IOUs our children will not be able to pay...We are acting as if we were the last generation on the planet. Without a radical change in heart, in mind, in vision, the earth will end up like Venus, charred and dead. – Jose Antonio Lutzenberger, Brazilian Minister for the Environment
