Fukushima - Aremageddon


This will scare the shit out of you, if you have any left. Almost inconceivable amounts of electricity required to make and sustain this ice wall, which will overflow just like the old wall did. Oh... but wait, Japan has shut down all but two reactors in the country..... Well let's fire those nuke plants up again to do it. Can't use diesel generators because Japan can't afford that much oil (especially since the Syrian crisis) and we've passed Peak Oil. Japan has no natural gas to speak of. Ohh... wait a minute they could start fracking all over Japan for it... Then they’d have to build natgas generating stations… But they’re broke… No, but wait, fracking would destroy all the fresh water in the country and cause earthquakes... That's OK, at least the government will be able to say they did something about the radiation problem. -- Happy ending :-)

The Peak Oil movement had this conundrum

Looking at Risks if the Fukushima Ice Wall Defrosts

The Japanese government is planning to build an ice wall around the damaged Fukushima nuclear plant to try to stop radioactive water leaks. Jeffrey Brown examines the risks and potential political fallout with Arjun Makhijani of the Institute for Energy and Environment Research and Kenji Kushida of Stanford University
