Re: US firm, NPCIL to set up 6 nuclear reactors in India
Agreement on setting up the reactors to be the major outcome of PM Modi's scheduled US visit.
As a nuclear
energy program progresses, the energy and the emergy consumed by the
construction shows that the energy delivered to society outside the
nuclear program is negative. That is the program goes on demanding
energy from year to year and even after thirty years no net energy is
given to society outside the nuclear industry. The demands are met by
thermal and hydro energy. The hydro energy is also required during
normal reactor operations because nuclear reactors supply only fixed
base loads as nuclear generation cannot be varied from instant to
instant and the variations must be met by dams. But these changes in
reservoir contents add up from one moment to another to huge total
change which appears at the centre of gravity of the reservoir contents
behind the world's dams. These huge changes exert bending water moment
surges ALL ROUND THE CENTRE OF GRAVITY OF THE WATER MASSES at many many
points of the earth. Fortuitously this results in an earthquake at a
particular point at a particular time and the whole water moment change
is felt at this point for a fleeting moment which may be milliseconds to
seconds. The dynamics makes the dam surges travel from one earthquake
point to another. During this process the full surge would be felt at a
fortuitous location on the earth, which may happen to be a nuclear
reactor as it happened at Fukushima, which is breeding extinction
through the three melted reactor cores deep inside the earth/
groundwaters by exposing its fissioned radionuclides to the biosphere.
Similarly the bending moments of dam contents are causing direct heating
up of the earth resulting in cloudbursts, flash floods, landslides
every hydrological cycle causing climate change! Its not just the
greenhouse gases! Kakrapar came several times near this because of the
crippling blows delivered by the dam surges and publicity about this and
about similar blows to Kudankulam made the citizens at Mithi Virdi in
Gujarat force the government to build a hasty retreat from locating
nukes there,that is, from Gujarat to Andhra Pradesh- to Srikakulam which
however experienced a deadly cyclone last year! Moorkhapaddhati!

A ten millionth of a gram of plutonium dust inhaled killed every mammal ever exposed in testing done by the DOE. Some mammals died within 5 years. Some died in 10 years or longer. They all perished from various cancers; liver, bone and lung cancers being the most common types of cancers caused by plutonium exposure. Just a ten millionth of a gram is lethal. If we assume there was 100 tons of nuclear fuels that vaporized at Fuku and 10% of the fuels was plutonium then that's 10 tons that has been spread around the environment. 10 tons x 2000 lbs x 16 oz x 28 grams x 10,000,000 = 8,960,000,000,000,000 lethal doses of plutonium just from the explosions and fires at Fukushima. That's not even counting the water transported plutonium contamination, which still continues to this day. Plus we know from continuous iodine 131 detection that fission criticalities are still occurring so that means ever more plutonium production is going on.
Considering the reactor 3 MOX dirty bomb explosion and the reactor 4 sfp fires I'd say this is a conservative estimate of how much plutonium was blown up into the air as smoke or particles.

There aren't enough zeros to define how many lethal doses of Plutonium are out there in the biosphere.
Let's not forget the 90% that is Enriched Uranium. It kills, too, for billions of years. Plutonium is just a 'hair' faster.

Abstract. The biotic crisis overtaking our planet is likely to precipitate a major extinction of species. That much is well known. Not so well known but probably more significant in the long term is that the crisis will surely disrupt and deplete certain basic processes of evolution, with consequences likely to persist for millions of years.
Distinctive features of future evolution could include a homogenization of biotas, a proliferation of opportunistic species, a pest-and-weed ecology, an outburst of speciation among taxa that prosper in human-dominated ecosystems, a decline of biodisparity, an end to the speciation of large vertebrates, the depletion of “evolutionary powerhouses” in the tropics, and unpredictable emergent novelties.
Despite this likelihood, we have only a rudimentary understanding of how we are altering the evolutionary future. As a result of our ignorance, conservation policies fail to reflect long-term evolutionary aspects of biodiversity loss.

"Death is one thing, an end to birth is something else."

Abstract.
'Evidence proves that it is mutants which are fit to survive that lead to new species'
Few realize that there are not the series of graduated steps from one species to another, but rather the sudden appearance of new species.
Mutation in the chromosome or its components (DNA, RNA, proteins, etc.) is the primary source of producing new species. Survival of the fittest merely plays a minor, at best, secondary role.
The evolution of RNA played a very important role in the earliest history of life. For one, genetic variation can be introduced as the result of mutation and RNA makes the mutation workable (RNA-catalyzed
The chromosome can bypass any assault on its integrity by repairing, reconstructing, substituting, improving and innovating its own molecular environment.
The chromosome can alter the gene's action, leading genetic pathways into new functional alleys, and hence, new creatures.
Ionizing Radiation and Evolution
Ionizing radiation, in the form of x-rays, gamma-rays and neutrons, is the most effective mutagen, as has been seen by its effects on DNA.
As a consequence, the radiation induced structural alteration of DNA molecules will alter genetic expression, producing new species.

Radioactive Waste Grade Soil found in Tokyo – Arnie Gundersen
Published on Mar 25, 2012
Tokyo Soil Samples Would Be Considered Nuclear Waste In The US
"While traveling in Japan several weeks ago, Fairewinds' Arnie Gundersen took soil samples in Tokyo public parks, playgrounds, and rooftop gardens. All the samples would be considered nuclear waste if found here in the US. This level of contamination is currently being discovered throughout Japan. At the US NRC Regulatory Information Conference in Washington, DC March 13 to March 15, the NRC's Chairman, Dr. Gregory Jaczko emphasized his concern that the NRC and the nuclear industry presently do not consider the costs of mass evacuations and radioactive contamination in their cost benefit analysis used to license nuclear power plants. Furthermore, Fairewinds believes that evacuation costs near a US nuclear plant could easily exceed one trillion dollars and contaminated land would be uninhabitable for generations."
I was traumatized while watching Arnie scoop up radioactive particles from the parks and gardens of Tokyo; to find it qualified as radioactive waste.
Who would not be traumatized by this knowledge?
Poor Arnie.

Comparing Chernobyl dispersal to Fukushima has led me to research concerning containment structures. Fuku's structure led to significant lower ground/atmospheric release which would have saturated Japan.
In time, continuing significant releases would accumulate in upper atmosphere. That's not to say initial release didn't go 'up', it did, but containment caused a more 'ground type' dispersion.
Chernobyl lack of containment probably saved Moscow.
Any help in this containment arena would be welcome.

High pressure expulsion of molten core debris from the reactor pressure vessel may result in dispersal of the debris from the reactor cavity. In most plants, the cavity exits into the containment such that the debris impinges on structures. Retention of the debris on the structures may affect the further transport of the debris throughout the containment.

Even with its sarcophagus, Chernobyl leeches to the environment because it is not airtight. That is why the rush in building another sarcophagus that is airtight.
Daiichi still has no containment at three of the blown out reactor buildings. Probably never will unless you consider groundwater containment as opposed to the melts being in open air like Chernobyl.
Melted radioactive slag ejection is not the same as radioactive materials vaporizing (atomizing). Without knowing how much of the cores at Chernobyl and Daiichi vaporized, it is hard to figure how much radioactivity escaped the buildings when ruined containment(s) is only a hindrance to venting. Remaining radioactive dust is another worry as the building degrades.
Caldicott claims the energy of 1,000 Hiroshima type bombs are in a Mark 1 reactor core. Now Arnie claim 500 bombs but does not say what type of bombs are represented in a reactor core. Disputed claims of 50% of the core at Chernobyl has gone missing, no estimates for Daiichi since they can't find the melted cores so calculations seems futile. The radioactive ash fall on the USS Reagan flotilla after Unit 3's explosion is pretty much ignored but all agree that spent fuel contains more daughter products than a working nuke core.

At a news conference here on May 17, Koizumi said: "U.S. military personnel who did their utmost in providing relief are now suffering from serious illnesses. We cannot ignore the situation."
Apparently overcome with emotion, Koizumi started crying, but went on and said, "Proponents and opponents of nuclear energy must think together about what can be done."
Koizumi, in power between 2001 and 2006, became a vocal opponent of nuclear energy after the triple meltdown at the Fukushima plant caused by the magnitude-9.0 earthquake and tsunami.
During the news conference, Koizumi also touched upon the significance of the scheduled visit to Hiroshima by U.S. President Barack Obama next week.
"It will be important to see how that is tied into a reduction and eventual elimination of nuclear weapons," Koizumi said. "We should all work toward zero nuclear plants and develop other energy sources."

“Half-Lives and Half-Truths in the Radioactive Shadowlands” features the work of two photographers—Gabriela Bulisova, who documented the aftermath of the Chernobyl nuclear incident, and Robert Knoth, who photographed the more recent nuclear catastrophe in Fukushima, Japan.
In the Fukushima series, does a tree with bright yellow leaves amid ordinary forest greenery have an unusual color because of lingering contamination? And is the heavy mist that hangs over a pretty mountainscape an homage to countless works of Asian art, or the presence of a toxic miasma? With these documentary series, it’s wise not to bet on the former.

Maybe it could be called "Urban Exposure"…

Sick sailors meet with Japan's former prime minister Posted: May 17, 2016
SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) – The fallout from Japan's nuclear disaster has hit home as the former Japanese prime minister and U.S. Sailors file a lawsuit against Tokyo Electric Power Company.
In 2011, with more than 5,000 sailors on board, the San Diego-based USS Ronald Reagan was deployed to provide aid after a tsunami hit Japan and also set off meltdowns at a nuclear plant. The USS Reagan sailed through a nuclear plume and crews had to spend hours decontaminating the vessel.
Sailors now say they are suffering from radiation exposure.
Medical experts believe there is no direct connection between the radiation exposure and the illnesses presented by the sailors.
The Navy would not comment pending litigation, but a judge has ruled in favor of the sailors. TEPCO has filed an appeal with the 9th Circuit Court.

“The SL-1 burial ground in 2003, as taken from an EPA report published that year. Underneath the surface are what remains of the SL-1 nuclear reactor, the building that contained it, tons of contaminated soil and rock, and some of the remains of the only people killed by a reactor accident in the United States.
“There have been three nuclear power plant meltdowns that have captured worldwide attention and left the general public with the opinion that nuclear power is too dangerous to rely upon. The most dangerous have been the meltdowns at Chernobyl in 1986 and Fukushima in 2012, both of which have left large areas where no-one can live. Three Mile Island is the other name to conjure with, though it was considerably less disastrous than the other two (it rates a 5 on the INES scale of accident severity, while the other two are a 7). To this we can add the Windscale Fire, also a 5, which was covered in secrecy at the time but became a rallying point for opposition to nuclear power in Britain after it became known in later decades.
“There have been several other meltdowns and partial meltdowns besides these, few even as severe as Three Mile Island, and in many cases they occurred in the early days of nuclear power when reactors were experimental and so correspondingly more dangerous. Most were clear of fatalities, but the SL-1 meltdown in 1961 killed three people.

????Murder-suicide??? They'd make up anything to be able to say that nuclear accidents have never killed anyone. Sadly, millions have died and billionf more will die because of nuclear technology.

After news article and online threats, EPA cancels appearance at West Lake Landfill meeting
EPA, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers all canceled their plans to send representatives to the West Lake Landfill Community Advisory Group's meeting. The volunteer-run group holds these meetings about once a month so residents can ask the agencies questions about the landfill's remaining contamination.
"When they saw the threat, all three agencies said that's not acceptable. It's too great a risk," Carey said.

Feds focus on railroads for moving nuke fuel
U.S. Department of Energy team evaluates county transportation infrastructure (ask Bernie)
VERNON—When it’s time to remove spent nuclear fuel from Vermont Yankee, it appears likely that will happen via rail — not trucks.
That was the takeaway last week for local officials and for plant administrators after meeting with a visiting team from the Department of Energy. That team was in town to begin planning for the eventual transport of 3,880 radioactive fuel assemblies stored at the Vernon plant.

White House threatens veto, calls MOX program ‘past deadline, over budget’
President Barack Obama’s administration called the current version of the National Defense Authorization Act, including continued funding for the MOX project, an impedance to the administration’s national defense strategy Monday and threatened an eventual veto.

Last week 45 year old worker was reported missing. Today they found the body of a 25 year old worker in the woods. Of course they claim murder. Something tells me something really bad is happening at the plant.

As in… recriticalities having shifted gear, hydro-volcanic explosions in February, accompanied and followed by record venting since, to be seen in mainly "spikes amidst data gaps" and "curious detections" in the Northern Hemisphere? And bad enough for France to turn off their monitors in the Southern Hemisphere? Bad, as in, if they actually told the truth, it could the kind of panic that could crash the world economy?
Oh. Oops. Didn't realize the mic was on.

I predict also, that about two centuries, or less from now, there will be about 500 million to 1 billion very subserviant, hard working, not so average Joes, laboring for about a million elites, in order to earn the right to remain on the planet, alive.
To be sure, while things look bad now,those of us whom will not be alive 50 years from now, should consider ourselves living in a golden age. Even discounting Fukushima, human existance is rapidly becoming an orwellion nightmare.Fukushima means that for all but a small elite,all hope is lost.
