Now, I don't know why, but it really seems that the mainstream media... and pretty much EVERYONE has completely forgotten about the disaster at Fukushima.
I really had to keep up with it myself just to see what has been happening. Nothing on FOX or CNN... and sites like AP don't even have it as headline news, I have to go searching.
A 7 on the International Nuclear Event Scale is... the highest and the worst you could possibly get when it comes to a nuclear disaster. In fact, Fukushima is now worse then Chernobyl, by a long shot. It has been going on for a month now and still is spewing radiation into the ocean and air...
And if you think that America is in no danger, unfortunately... there is radiation reaching us.
Why isn't this big news? I didn't see anything about it. Is Justin Beiber seriously more important? I am disappoint.
I love Japan... and was planning a trip there... but who cares about what I was going to do, the people there are going to get all sorts of diseases and cancer due to the radiation! And the worst part is that it is still spewing poisonous radiation.
they have probably overestimated the disaster scale. There's requirement of direct radiation death to ever worth a 5, not even a 7, and so far there were none. I'd say that situation is worth a 5 or a 6, but nowhere near 7.
This is nowhere near as bad as Chernobyl was, lol. Chernobyl killed an entire city and a notable chunk of the Ukraine is still uninhabitable due to the radiation. It was the closest to a China Syndrome occurrence we've ever been.
This isn't anywhere near worse than Chernobyl yet, but it's certainly still worrying that it's been so long since it happened and it doesn't appear to have been completely solved yet.
