Professor
Busby believes the situation is clearly out of control and that no
one can go anywhere near it. “Nobody can go in to measure
where these leaks are or do anything about them, because anybody who
is to approach that sort of area would be dead quite quickly. They
would be seriously harmed”
What happens
next is anyone’s guess,
This will
have a domino impact on all nuclear reactors in my opinion. The
cost of keeping those still operating will have to go up, and as the
cost of decommissioning them becomes clearly extraordinary, often
more than double the cost of building them, and sometimes, like
Sellafield, orders of magnitude more, and in a climate of
disappearing liquidity……… nobody will be able to afford
to build any nukes. There simply won’t be the funds, as all
the money that could have been used disappears down the blackhole of
decommissioning.
The last
nail in the Nuclear coffin …

Sept 13, Things
have been looking grim at Fukushima. First, they realised that
for some time they had been using a radiation meter that could not
read beyond 100 milli Sieverts and believed that this was the actual
radiation level there…. only to find out with another
instrument that levels were in fact much higher, and that hundreds of
tonnes of highly radioactive water were leaking into the Pacific
Ocean daily for…. well no one knows.
Then it was
decided (as
I recently reported) that
fuel rods lying perilously in a damaged above ground leaking pool
that keeps those rods from melting down and causing an actual out of
control nuclear reactor (read explosion + mushroom cloud…) were
going to be moved, by hand… because? Well the cranes
that normally do this have been destroyed by the earthquake,
presumably ably assisted by the tsunami.
At the time I
commented “what could go wrong?”……..
Well….
things have actually taken a turn for the worse, even before the
attempt to move the rods. Read
