I posted this in food and nutrition because it directly affects the food we get from the pacific ocean and animals on the west coast!

Read the article and then you can say that either you did already know about this or you are now unhappily more informed!

I just want you to know what is going on out there!

    Oh, so it's a 'holocaust' now is it? Transuranics in conventional reactors usually have short half-lives.

    The French set off nuclear bombs in the pacific, so I'm pretty sure the pacific is screwed anyway.

    Also holocaust? No, just no.

    Yeah.....hows Austrailia? (Our bad) and Nevada?

    Having made light of this I will end on the fact I know farmers who still cant sell lambs raised on their land since the Chernobyl incident carried fallout over the UK.

    Nice. I had calmed my nerves in preparation for our trip to Japan this Spring... until this thread.

    Unfortunately, the Japanese have little energy options beyond nuclear. And with the threat of another major quake there in the next 30 years, odds are it will happen again.

    "#6 Something is causing fish along the west coast of Canada to bleed from their gills, bellies and eyeballs. Could Fukushima be responsible?"

    I thought these were listed as 'facts'.

    Thank you for pointing that out...thought I was the only one that noticed.
