Nov. 7, 2013 — Kevin Kamps, Beyond Nuclear: Well, that’s a great
tragedy that the Japanese government is allowing this [resettling
near Fukushima] to happen. To within the closest 12.4 miles of the
devastated nuclear power plant obviously the landscape is
contaminated, the food supplies are contaminated. As your reporter
said, it’s up to individual private citizens to try to figure out
how bad the contamination is. The environmental groups are trying to
help them. So, it’s beyond tragic, it’s a crime what’s
happening at Fukushima Daiichi.
Abby Martin’s ‘Breaking the Set‘ with RT reporter Alexey Yaroshevsky, Nov. 8, 2013 (at 26:30 in): What struck me the most, and I’m saying that as a person who’s been in the Chernobyl exclusion zone [...] The cities and towns which are located just 10-15 km from the nuclear power station where obviously radiation levels are still very, very high and even lethal in some cases. So those town have been reopened for settlers, we literally saw people rebuilding their houses in these areas and this is creating a huge concern in Japan [...] In some other areas 60-70km from the nuclear power station, the areas which have never been included into an exclusion zone, which have never been under lockdown, raditional levels, the ones we’ve encountered, some hotbeds, hotspots of radiation we encountered have 3 microsieverts per hour. And this is the same level as the ghost town of Pripyat in the exclusion zone in the Ukraine, the level which would not allow humans to live in this area. Watch the report here
