First of two emergency centres opens in USA - Nuclear Engineering International

A second facility opens in Memphis, Tennessee in June. "Equipment from the regional response centers will enable all nuclear plant operators to protect their reactors and used fuel storage pools until normal power and cooling systems are restored. This is in addition to other measures, including built-in safety systems, the use of on-site portable emergency equipment, and portable equipment and materials on hand at all 62 nuclear energy facilities that can be utilized and shared during an emergency," said Randy Edington, executive vice president and chief nuclear officer of Arizona Public Service Co., which owns and operates the Palo Verde nuclear facility.

10 Most Radioactive Places on Earth. While the 2011 earthquake and worries surrounding Fukushima have brought the threat of radioactivity back into the public consciousness, many people still don’t realize that radioactive contamination is a worldwide danger. Radionuclides are in the top six toxic threats as listed in the 2010 report by The Blacksmith Institute, an NGO dedicated to tackling pollution. You might be surprised by the locations of some of the world’s most radioactive places — and thus the number of people living in fear of the effects radiation could have on them and their children. 10.

Army Scientists Secretly Sprayed St-Louis with Radioactive Particles for YEARS to Test Chemical Warfare Technology

Louis Community College, has spent years tracking down declassified documents to uncover the lengths which the US experimented on people without their knowing. At left, cadmium sulfide, the ‘harmless’ chemical sprayed on the public is pictured. The United States Military conducted top secret experiments on the citizens of St. Louis, Missouri, for years, exposing them to radioactive compounds, a researcher has claimed. While it was known that the government sprayed ‘harmless’ zinc cadmium silfide particles over the general population in St Louis, Professor Lisa Martino-Taylor, a sociologist at St.

She has accrued detailed descriptions as well as photographs of the spraying which exposed the unwitting public, predominantly in low-income and minority communities, to radioactive particles. ‘The study was secretive for reason. No One is Watching. We are within weeks of what may be humankind’s most dangerous moment and it is coming just as the greatest credit bubble in history is about to pop.

No One is Watching

Images of the movie Armageddon, with Bruce Willis, have been hanging like a cloud over me. In the movie, everyone on earth was watching to see if Willis would succeed in blowing up the incoming asteroid. « Situation d’urgence » décrétée à Fukushima.

Fukushima radioactive leaks 'impossible to stop' Japanese government officials admitted last month that radioactive water has been leaking into the ocean everyday—at least 300 tons in recent months.

Fukushima radioactive leaks 'impossible to stop'

Most of the water is being used to prevent overheating at the crippled Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant. To add to the plant’s woes, a new tank leak announced two weeks ago spilled another 300 tons of radioactive water into the ground. The leak, along with rising contamination levels, is particularly concerning as Tokyo is set to host the 2020 Olympics.

Water stored in the tanks has been treated to remove cesium, one of the most dangerous of the radioactive elements. Un réalisateur japonais se bat contre "le lobby nucléaire" A Fukushima, les autorités cherchent toujours des solutions. An Overview of Fukushima and a Call for Meaningful International Collaboration. This article can only hope to provide a partial and incomplete introduction to the complex situation on the ground at the Fukushima Daiichi plant and some context for the relative risks of the crisis there.

An Overview of Fukushima and a Call for Meaningful International Collaboration

In part this is a response to the epidemic of erroneous, misleading, and downright false information that has been widely circulating in the recent weeks. In part it is a call for meaningful international collaboration to address some of the very serious and real risks that are part of this situation. An introduction to the situation at Fukushima On 11 March 2011, (hereafter referred to as 3.11), a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and the following tsunami set into motion a series of events in which Units 1-4 of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant were devastated. 36 Signs The Media Is Lying To You About How Radiation From Fukushima Is Affecting The West Coast. The west coast of the United States is being absolutely fried by radiation from the Fukushima nuclear disaster, and the mainstream media is not telling us the truth about this.

36 Signs The Media Is Lying To You About How Radiation From Fukushima Is Affecting The West Coast

What you are about to see is a collection of evidence that is quite startling. Taken collectively, this body of evidence shows that nuclear radiation from Fukushima is affecting sea life in the Pacific Ocean and animal life along the west coast of North America in some extraordinary ways. But the mainstream media continues to insist that we don’t have a thing to worry about. The mainstream media continues to insist that radiation levels in the Pacific and along the west coast are perfectly safe.

Le moment le plus dangereux pour l'humanité depuis la crise des missiles cubains

Nous sommes actuellement à deux mois du moment le plus dangereux peut-être pour l'humanité depuis la crise des missiles cubains. Il n'y a aucune excuse à ne pas agir. Toutes les ressources que notre espèce peut rassembler doivent se focaliser sur la piscine de l'unité 4 de Fukushima. Fukushima : face aux risques nucléaires, la communauté internationale doit réagir. Ernest Moniz, secrétaire à l'Énergie des États-Unis, et Naomi Hirose, président de Tepco, à Fukushima le 1/11/13 (SIPA) Ces derniers jours, on parle beaucoup de Fukushima dans les médias et blogs anglophones.

Les sacrifiés de Fukushima. Les sacrifiés de Fukushima © Maxppp On estime à 10.000 le nombre de personnes chargées de nettoyer les 13.000 kilomètres carrés. Le chantier est tellement grand qu'ils se concentrent essentiellement pour le moment sur les 1.000 kilomètres carrés de la zone interdite. Il y a des liens historiques entre les entreprises de constructions et les yakuza.

Or, ce sont justement ces entreprises qui sont chargées de la décontamination. Alerte rouge ! Du poisson au césium de Fukushima dans les supermarchés suisses ! Fukushima : un niveau inédit de césiums radioactifs mesuré près de l'océan. Partager Presque trois ans après l'accident, les eaux contaminées restent l'un des plus épineux problèmes de Fukushima (Japon). La compagnie Tepco, gérante de la centrale accidentée, a annoncé avoir mesuré, jeudi 13 février, un niveau jusqu'à présent inédit de césiums 134 et 137, des éléments radioactifs, dans un puits situé entre les réacteurs ravagés et l'océan Pacifique voisin. Selon Tepco, l'eau touchée par ces pics, puisée à 16 mètres de profondeur, ne coulerait pas vers la mer. Key Fukushima Fallout Update That Everyone Should Know About. What exactly is going on in Fukushima? There seems to be little media attention surrounding the subject as many alternative media outlets claim something serious is happening that we should all be wary of.

Let’s have a look at what both sides are saying. We posted a story earlier this year about the state of nuclear fallout as it relates to oceans and landmass around the world. From our research we found that the damage the Fukushima accident is causing seems to be understated by the media and certain major world authorities.

Radioactive cesium-137 in foods can be blocked during digestion: Health Ranger research breakthrough. (NaturalNews) After many long months of intense R&D efforts in the laboratory, I am ready to make this historical, groundbreaking announcement: I have discovered, documented and validated a combination of five natural substances which can capture and remove radioactive cesium-137 from the digestive tract. This operates in much the same way that dietary fiber can capture and remove many other substances during digestion, except that the formula I have discovered has selective ionic affinity for cesium atoms. The five ingredients in this formula are all GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the FDA, and this formula can be manufactured as a dietary supplement. It is NOT a drug and no claims are being made for this formula to treat, prevent or cure any disease.

The CDC's description of Prussian Blue validates the idea that certain substances can be used to capture radiological elements in the gastrointestinal tract in order to remove them from the body.
