The Fukushima disaster is far from over. 4 reactors have
been continuously leaking the radiation into the environment since March 11
last year. There are over 100,000 tons of highly toxic radioactive water is
left in the site. 3 reactors had meltdown. Because of very high radiation level
near those reactors, no human can get near to them, that means they can only
guess where had the melted fuel gone and in what shape. Reactor 4 is the most
worrying, especially since series of size 4 magnitude earthquakes happened at
the beginning of this year.
Higher radiation was detected around that time. Now it’s
in the middle of winter we hear news about leaking pipes that were erupted by
the frozen weather. (Feb. 5, 2012)
