The Pacific is beautiful when it glows brightly at night.

"Radiation levels of up to 530 Sieverts per hour were detected inside an inactive Reactor 2 at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear complex damaged during the 2011 earthquake and tsunami catastrophe, Japanese media reported on Thursday citing the plant operator, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO)."

"A dose of about 8 Sieverts is considered incurable and fatal."
These stupid people that worship an emperor can't get close enough to even see what the problem is.
This would never happen here because emperor trump wouldn't allow it.
Just waiting for a nuclear plant,here, to go "FUCKED UP" & hurt & kill Republicans.

We'll have glowing coasts, too, now that Tumpligua is our presidents!

Seig Heil!

Trump would have never allowed them to declare a state of emergency.

Scientists at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan have declared a state of emergency as one of the reactors is on the verge of falling into the ocean.*


*Lethal levels of radiation have been detected around the site which scientists say stems from a hole caused by melted nuclear fuel.

Huh? You actually posted something you knew does not make any sense.
WTF

About 770,000 tons of radioactive water is stored in 580 tanks in Fukushima.

While I don't like radioactive water, the amount of water really is minuscule. It's about equivalent to 3,000 homes, with a family of four water usage for a month (in the 580 tanks). Or broken down to cubic feet, it's ~29,411,764. The Pacific Ocean alone has 171 MILLION cubic MILES of water. ~29M Cubic feet is about 0.00019981095933 Cubic MILES. So we're talking 171,000,000 cubic miles of water and 0.00019981095933 of that is going to have radioactive water. I agree the fisherman should take issue locally. In the grand scheme of things, this is literally a proton or whatever atomic particle you like in a haystack. Fuck the needle. Don't forget the other ~50% of the worlds oceans either in this. So I don't think anything is going to glow from this.

I'm assuming you are aware the amount of tritium in those 770,000 tons of water is 875 terabecquerel (TBq) which translates out to 2.45 grams. It is increasing at a rate of 230 TBq of 0.64 grams a year. I'm reasonably sure 2.45 grams dispersed in 171 million cubic miles of water isn't going to be making any glow. Especially since cosmic rays produce 148,000 terabecquerels of tritium per year maintaining the approximately 2,590,000 terabecquerels of naturally occurring tritium in the world.

Just a thought.

Smart ass...

I opted to post on the existing thread rather than start a new one. My main reasoning was the potential for setting a new precedent to continue using the ocean as a dumping ground for even more damaging things. How much has been dumped no one even knows about is what concerns me and I suspect there has been a lot more than we will ever know or care to know.

That is a valid but probably misplaced concern considering the amount of ocean dumping that has already occurred in the history of man.. I don't see a precedent in a one time dumping (we aren't going to have reactor meltdowns very often) of a minuscule quantity of tritium which is a naturally occurring isotope that exists in the oceans already. The dumping unimaginably huge quantities of plastics, chemicals, nitrates, hydrocarbons, etc., etc. is a very different issue more than worthy of it's own thread.

For the politically inclined the restrictions on ocean dumping are some of the business killing regulations promulgated by unelected bureaucrats that the libertarians currently running our government want gone. Be careful what you wish for you might get it.

WookieMan and Bob2356. We may not have glowing oceans from Fukushima however we have enough other hot spots around the world that could do some serious damage. The map below only shows what has been admitted to but does not include the areas where Russia is either believed to or admitted to dumping/disposing nuclear waste.

No doubt. We weren't talking about solid nuclear waste that will sit for thousands of years. We were talking about tritium which is both naturally occurring already and will disperse. If you want be really horrified on the subject of soviet navy nuclear dumping then read K19 Widowmaker by Peter Huchthausen . Your map is only low level radioactive, not entire nuclear submarines with the reactors still in them.
