    yup it was OK ... umm ... has anyone besides me left the northern hemisphere ... australia and south america wont be taking refugees after northern people are contaminated you know.

    check out how many reactors there are here where Bush and Nazis retired
    Nuclear power plants in South America

    See my point ?
    Its getting lonely here ... Nadie habla ingles. la musica es basura, y mis vecinos son fascistas ... auxilio !

    At last they are acknowledging the true extent of the crisis, just barely though. This could still be worse than Chernobyl. It ain't over till the last half-life has sang its radioactive song.

    Take a closer look...thats radiation coming from Ch i n a...

    Have you heard about the massive dust storms that have been wiping out entire cities and towns there? Its from all the nuclear testing C Hin a has been doing in the past couple years...its frightening...the US is the lucky recipient as is everyone in the dust storms path...

    Hey...Actually the chart shows the radiation coming from China. China is drifting a lot of radiation fallout from all their careless nuclear testing. The Chinese people are suffering greatly and many have no idea.

    Yes, the page is still up and works fine here.

    Ouch...Lets go back to looking at the other map.
    Thanks for that map by the way...Very cool and interesting to check...

    Being on the left coast and facing malibu we are in the path of the warm fuzzy goodness of radiation drifts....:sunny:

    Yeah, let's build a bunch more coal power plants! Or better yet, build solar cells that take 10-20 years to produce enough power to equal the coal burned to produce those solar cells!

    Nuclear energy is the only solution, in terms of slowing global warming and actually being a way to stop air pollution in any meaningful amount. Solar uses to much energy for the cells to be produced, wind requires a secondary source during the nighttime(no, batteries are not a halfway decent solution to this dilemna) coal/natural gas/oil produces huge amounts of air pollution, geothermal is not reliable enough and cannot be deployed everywhere, which leaves nuclear.

    Support the building of breeder reactors (ones that convert unusable u-238 isotopes into u-235 isotopes, thereby reducing the amount of surface/underground mining that destroys environments) and deep, hard-rock, mines to store the radioactive waste. When constructed properly, virtually no radiation escapes, and the amount of radiation entering groundwater is less than that produced by most electronics (groundwater is above the proposed yuma facility, and the method by which the spent rods are stored absorbs the radiation).

    Conversely, every other method of obtaining energy yield significantly more air & earth pollution (earth including groundwater, and oceans with the organisms that live within): solar cells require heavy metals & silicon, both of which require huge mines, and the chemicals used therein (particularly cyanide/mercury for extraction of gold/palladium/platinum, copper mines, etc.); coal mining destroys mountaintop (mountaintop removal mining), destroys large amounts of land (strip mining) and uses huge amounts of oil&gas; natural gas requires hydrofracturing, which pumps water containing huge amounts of poisonous chemicals into the ground and contaminate groundwater and kills huge numbers of animals; oil spills produce huge amounts of polluted waters; geothermal/wind are just not able to be implemented, even together, to produce anywhere near enough energy to power even a far more efficient society.

    Nuclear is the only answer. Breeder reactors reduce mining, and properly constructed storage sites reduce the damage to the environment to zero. No air pollution, no water pollution, no earth pollution. Truly, the only answer. If you don't have an alternate solution (which, as people more intelligent and learned than us, and who have spent *far* more time trying to find an alternate solution and have still come to the same conclusion), support nuclear energy until one is found.

    I'm sure it would have been on the news if one of them had.

    Get real. Do some research. Nuclear testing has little, if anything, to do with the nuclear testing china does. In fact, they only have 240-400 nuclear devices; they aren't going to waste half their supply on "testing", which, even if they used all of their nukes on testing, would not cause dust storms. The dust storms are caused by a combination of high global temperatures, reduced humidity, deforestation (a small part, in china), groundwater being depleted, surface water being depleted, etc. Nuclear testing has *nothing* to do with those dust storms.

    What is the current status of the reactor, the Fukushima 50 and the fallout? All this jabber is just fine- elsewhere. I want to see updates on this matter.
