No Worries: Fukushima Radiation Didn't Make it to L.A. Beaches

[longship]

51. The sea star crap was science illiteracy.

So was the fake map of radiation that turned out to be the tsunami projection map.

So was a lot of things posted here. High radioactivity in fish! Nope, barely trace levels.

Etc.

But long after all the fake doom and gloom stuff is falsified, the people from Fukushima prefecture will likely still have an exclusion zone where they cannot go back to their homes. While people weave their conspiracies and wring their hands about made up radioactive glowing surf on the west coast of North America, the people really effected by this are the ones I think of.

Some would have a uncaring Japanese government, apparently controlled by TEPCO, not only not caring about the world, but not caring about their own citizens. I assure you that the Japanese government very much cares about this. We even have DUers who live there who could fill people in on that.

In the end, I want this to work out in the best way, but I am worried that it is likely going to take a very long time to secure the Fukushima Daiichi site. I am not worried about the west coast, though. Five thousand miles of ocean is a helluva buffer. (Some here think it's five feet, apparently.) But it is going to be tough for the Japanese for some time.
