The ground beneath the plant’s Unit 4 is gradually sinking, and the entire structure is very likely on the verge of complete collapse. “Many scientists say if Unit 4 collapses, not only will Japan lie in ruin, but the entire world will also face serious damages.” http://fukushimaupdate.com/ground-under ... -collapse/ |

http://www.fairewinds.com/content/fukus ... and-future "Here is what would happen if Unit 4 were to crack and the water were to drain out of the nuclear fuel pool. The fuel is hot enough that it needs to be water-cooled. If air is all there is cooling the fuel, it will burn. It will burn the zircaloy cladding on the fuel, (and) will react with the oxygen to create a fire. And it is a fire that once it starts, cannot be put out by water. Water would make it worse. So the nuclear fuel would have to burn completely before the fire would ever go out. In the process, all that radiation would go up into the atmosphere and blow all over Japan and all over the world. There is as much cesium in the fuel pool at Unit 4 as there was in all of the atomic bombs dropped in all of the tests in the 1940's, the 1950's, the 1960's, and into the 1970's. All of the above ground testing has less cesium in it than is in the reactor pool at Fukushima 4 right now. So it is a grave situation. I don't believe that the Japanese Government is moving fast enough. If there is no earthquake, the plan to remove the fuel slowly is going to be adequate. But we cannot wait on Mother Nature. We have to quickly move that fuel out of that pool and onto the ground. The key here is quickly. The Japanese Government finally just this month came up with a plan to build a building around the fuel pool building and begin removing the fuel in 2013 or 2014." http://ajw.asahi.com/article/behind_new ... 1205100051 "Murata has his own predictions. "If the storage pool should collapse and the 1,535 fuel rods began burning in the atmosphere, an endless amount of radiation would be emitted. Of course, that would mean that Tokyo would become unlivable," he said. Murata continued: "Just 50 meters from the No. 4 reactor is the common pool for the No. 1 to No. 6 reactors. The common pool holds 6,375 spent nuclear fuel rods. If a fire should occur at the No. 4 reactor pool, the common pool would also not stand a chance." Just great. We've got the population crashing from 2030 to 2070, then thermageddon 3000, and now this for a triple whammy. And here we have 130 videos of the end of the world; http://noolmusic.com/search_videos/end_of_the_world |

You know it is odd that the only reference to this is the blogosphere repeating of one person's statement. Why are there not any other confirmations? |

It certainly is a dangerous situation if the water spills out from sinking out of level or another earthquake. The amount of radiation there is more than I would have thought, and it going into the world atmosphere would be very major. I think destroying 2/3 of life on Earth is an exaggeration, but it may not be. Involuntary radiation treatment to billions is not desirable. The local fish and rice are no good to eat right now. A real life Godzilla emergency of their own making. They should be removing the rods, wrapping them in lead individually, and getting them out of there, ASAP. |

a few hours ago, there was a tsunami warning for the West coast of North America (namely Canada and Alaska but it was seen as far away as Hawaii). It turns out to be only a mild wave but it still keeps the idea of tsunamis to be possible anywhere and anytime. |
