Fukushima Crisis Demands Global Take-Over
Fukushima Crisis Demands Global Take-Over
Email the U.N. Secretary General and the U.S. President now!
Fukushima’s owner, Tokyo Electric (Tepco), does not have the resources to handle 1,300 spent fuel rods now sitting in a badly damaged pool perched 100 feet in the air, with the potential to spew out more than 15,000 times as much radiation as was released at Hiroshima.
The situation demands a coordinated worldwide effort of the best scientists and engineers our species can muster.
Chernobyl’s first 1986 fallout reached California within ten days. Fukushima's in 2011 arrived in less than a week. A new fuel fire at Unit 4 would pour out a continuous stream of lethal radioactive poisons for centuries.
Former Ambassador Mitsuhei Murata says of full-scale releases from Fukushima, "This is not rocket science, nor does it connect to the pugilistic debate over nuclear power plants. This is an issue of human survival."
This crisis comes just as the Obama Administration is trying to provide a $8.3 billion loan to build the first new nuclear plants in the U.S. in almost 30 years. Tell President Obama to loan that $8.3 billion to a Fukushima emergency clean-up instead.
Tell the United Nations to lead that effort immediately.
