Fukushima 'Full Meltdown' Made Official

<i>The Fukushima disaster is already as bad as Chernobyl according to the International Atomic Energy Association's scale</i><p>That is quite a logical leap based solely on the INES rating. Fukushima is in the same <i>category</i> as Chernobyl, but this is also the highest category there is, and Chernobyl was past the boundary by a huge margin.<p>For example, the criteria for the total release of iodine-131 in a level 7 accident is "tens of thousands of TBq". Chernobyl released 1.8 <i>million</i> TBq. Fukushima has released about 370,000 TBq so far.<p>Chernobyl had killed 31 people by this point while Fukushima has had negligible health effects so far due to much better emergency response. The INES rating <i>does not</i> account for this, only for the amount of material released.

A short, but well written article that does a good job of taking on the "full meltdown" hysteria that some news organisations seem to clutch on to.<p>Granted, the situation at Fukushima isn't good, but "meltdown" seems to trigger the idea of a huge explosion and the scattering of nuclear fallout for miles &#38; miles to much of the general public.<p>PS: As an aside, the dramas in Japan are disappointing, because I'm a strong believer in nuclear power going forward. Misconceptions &#38; a lack of education, fuelled by crisis' like these, don't help the cause.

I recall so many people here asserting absolutely that fukushima wouldn't be a problem at all. Those people should reflect a bit.

Can anybody who is going to make a political nuclear statement for either side please read the prior threads on this topic where your point has already been argued ad infinitum? Someone else already thought about it and used scare words to drive the point home more effectively than you can. I promise.<p><i>Another article with Fukushima in the title! Yay! Now I get to argue like a moron because it is a polarizing topic! Stupid {atomheads,hippies}!</i><p>Nothing has changed in Japan so there is no reason to expect the thread to change. Shut up, please, and do something productive instead of convincing other hackers with no power to make energy decisions about your take on nuclear power. I can recite this thread from memory it has been rehashed so much and I have flagged it as a result. What can possibly be discussed that hasn't been beat to death in the last two months?<p>Here's some:<p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2315205" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2315205</a><p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2318552" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2318552</a><p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2325588" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2325588</a><p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2316390" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2316390</a><p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2326726" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2326726</a><p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2396258" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2396258</a><p>Find your own:<p><a href="http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&#38;q=fukushima&#38;sortby=points+desc" rel="nofollow">http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&#38;q=fuk...</a>

Fairwinds: Fukushima Groundwater Contamination Worst in Nuclear History<p>"That (contaminated) water is seeping into the ground table, and there will be contamination on that site for a long time to come. It could also move inland. This is ground water, it doesn't have to move out into the ocean. It is clearly moving into the north"<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CAeixB19d4" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CAeixB19d4</a><p>I don't believe that TEPCO is actively monitoring plutonium and uranium, which is heavy and more likely to seep into ground water than to be blown into the air. I hope that people in Tokyo do have some independent monitoring stations setup. Anybody know any links?
