Yea I heard someone having a conversation about the radiation spreading all the way to the east coast of America and it being extremely harmful and fatal. If I wasn't one of the 4 white people in this part of Philadelphia I would have told that person to run and hide underground because their stupidity is more harmful than the radiation to the east coast >.>

A general rule of thumb:
If Japan is still alive, the radiation hitting us isn't lethal.
Common sense people, please.

No, Hawaii. Hawaii has more people of Japanese ancestry than California.

Fox sucks.

Agreed.

Everything gives off radiation. High energy radiation is coming through our atmosphere constantly, everywhere. The sun gives off radiation (sun burns!). You get high amounts of radiation on every flight you take. On every x-ray you receive. Every trip to the dentist. From the watch on your arm to the tv you watch; everything gives off some amount of radiation.

And we've evolved to become used to it. Radiation is not necessarily a bad thing. Your microwave uses radiation to heat your food. Radios send long wave radiation through the air to transmit music and information.

Radiation is only harmful to us at energy levels high enough to penetrate into our bodies and cause damage at a cellular level.


As such, we need to treat this problem rationally. Radiation only scares everyone because they can't see it, which makes it hard to understand.

I almost guarantee that if the quake had have knocked out a gas power plant in Japan that exploded and killed 1000 people, people wouldn't suddenly start fearing gas power irrationally. They would treat it as an accident.

This too, was an accident, that has thankfully been mitigated. Until there is evidence to suggest a serious problem, the crews will continue to do their best to control and repair the situation, and things should be fine.

Today I learned that coal plants produce more radiation than nuclear power plants

[kommisar]

Re: [NEWS] Japan Earthquake/Tsunami/Nuclear Crisis 2011

so basically the amount of radiation in the city near the reactor is just 1.5x the normal intake of radiation from a normal day. which is incredibly negligible.

yeah, there are literally trace amounts of uranium, among other shit like arsenic, in that cloud of smoke coming out of a coal power plant. That doesn't bother anyone.

The stuff coming out of a nuclear reactor is water. It's so much cleaner!

Re: [NEWS] Japan Earthquake/Tsunami/Nuclear Crisis 2011

coal is some nasty shit

i will be happy the day we move on from that stuff

Yep. Oh wait, how do you know? You don't. You don't know me. Who are you?

Ignorance. Don't assume things without having proof.

But on behalf for what I posted, I have GAD almmost everyday so this kind of situation makes it worsen and I end up doing things without thinking. Been with anxiety attacks the past week. One of my best friends lives in Tokyo and I am concerned for him with all my heart. Though panicking does nothing positive. So I am honestly sorry if that post offended or gave off the wrong idea to anyone. I have a really kind heart so I care about anything living, and react to situations in that manner. I just want it to stop and end well for everyone.

chernobyl is still dangerously reactive 25 years later. being on the site itself is dangerous


fukushima isn't even a fraction of what was released there. read an article about the aftermath of chernobyl on the rest of europe and it's pretty frightening how it could still get worse now.
