How
dangerous is Fukushima 4? Dr. Michio Kaku on Flashpoints
10
May, 2012
“The
reactor buildings still contain large amounts of spent fuel –
making them a huge safety risk and the only protection from a future
tsunami, Wyden observed, is a small, makeshift sea wall erected out
of bags of rock.”—Senator Ron Wyden (OR), after visit to
Fukushima
.
. .
”Scientists
say that there is a 70% chance of a magnitude 7.0 earthquake hitting
Fukushima this year, and a 98% chance within the next 3 years.”
The
alternative media is buzzing with concern over the precarious
situation of Fukushima 4, literally balanced on a knife-edge after
the initial earthquake and tsunami, but the commercial press
maintains near-silence.
Click
below to listen to this segment of a popular KPFA radio program to
learn more.
Unfortunately,
it’s hard for radio programs to publish transcripts of their
content, so the material can’t be found in Google or referenced. So
I can’t quote from yesterday’s Flashpoints program, I can only
ask you to take a moment and listen to at least the beginning of it.
If Disappeared News had time to do radio, I would want it to be like
Flashpoints with Dennis Bernstein. But he’s already doing it. So
please have a listen.
The
first part of the program is an update on how dangerous Fukushima
Reactor 4 is, with Dr. Michio Kaku.
As
Dennis says, “hold on to your seats and stay tuned.”
The
program mentions the impossibility of evacuating Tokyo’s 30 million
people, representing 20% of the country’s population. The
consequences of further nuclear disaster at Fukishima extend far
beyond Japan, of course.
Dr.
Michio Kaku says three raging meltdowns under way at Fukushima
