It seems, we all have a vested interests, in what goes on around the world!
A friend emailed me this link and story this morning. I wanted to share, as it is something,
we should all consider, as we go in to our future.

My husbands company, had told him & others to get ready, as the tsunami was hitting. Even without passports, men can/will be flown around the world, to handle these type situations on emergency scales.
Once the company realized the magnitude of the danger, they chose to send no one!

28 Signs That The West Coast Is Being Absolutely Fried With Nuclear Radiation From Fukushima | Global Research



The map below comes from the Nuclear Emergency Tracking Center. It shows that radiation levels at radiation monitoring stations all over the country are elevated. As you will notice, this is particularly true along the west coast of the United States. Every single day, 300 tons of radioactive water from Fukushima enters the Pacific Ocean. That means that the total amouont of radioactive material released from Fukushima is constantly increasing, and it is steadily building up in our food chain. Ultimately, all of this nuclear radiation will outlive all of us by a very wide margin. They are saying that it could take up to 40 years to clean up the Fukushima disaster, and meanwhile countless innocent people will develop cancer and other health problems as a result of exposure to high levels of nuclear radiation. We are talking about a nuclear disaster that is absolutely unprecedented, and it is constantly getting worse. The following are 28 signs that the west coast of North America is being absolutely fried with nuclear radiation from Fukushima…

Fukushima Radiation

1. Polar bears, seals and walruses along the Alaska coastline are suffering from fur loss and open sores…


Wildlife experts are studying whether fur loss and open sores detected in nine polar bears in recent weeks is widespread and related to similar incidents among seals and walruses.

The bears were among 33 spotted near Barrow, Alaska, during routine survey work along the Arctic coastline. Tests showed they had “alopecia, or loss of fur, and other skin lesions,” the U.S. Geological Survey said in a statement.

2. There is an epidemic of sea lion deaths along the California coastline…


At island rookeries off the Southern California coast, 45 percent of the pups born in June have died, said Sharon Melin, a wildlife biologist for the National Marine Fisheries Service based in Seattle. Normally, less than one-third of the pups would die. It’s gotten so bad in the past two weeks that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration declared an “unusual mortality event.”

3. Along the Pacific coast of Canada and the Alaska coastline, the population of sockeye salmon is at a historic low. Many are blaming Fukushima.

4. Something is causing fish all along the west coast of Canada to bleed from their gills, bellies and eyeballs.

5. A vast field of radioactive debris from Fukushima that is approximately the size of California has crossed the Pacific Ocean and is starting to collide with the west coast.

6. It is being projected that the radioactivity of coastal waters off the U.S. west coast could double over the next five to six years.

7. Experts have found very high levels of cesium-137 in plankton living in the waters of the Pacific Ocean between Hawaii and the west coast.

8. One test in California found that 15 out of 15 bluefin tuna were contaminated with radiation from Fukushima.

9. Back in 2012, the Vancouver Sun reported that cesium-137 was being found in a very high percentage of the fish that Japan was selling to Canada…

• 73 percent of mackerel tested

• 91 percent of the halibut

• 92 percent of the sardines

• 93 percent of the tuna and eel

• 94 percent of the cod and anchovies

• 100 percent of the carp, seaweed, shark and monkfish

10. Canadian authorities are finding extremely high levels of nuclear radiation in certain fish samples…


Some fish samples tested to date have had very high levels of radiation: one sea bass sample collected in July, for example, had 1,000 becquerels per kilogram of cesium.

11. Some experts believe that we could see very high levels of cancer along the west coast just from people eating contaminated fish…


“Look at what’s going on now: They’re dumping huge amounts of radioactivity into the ocean — no one expected that in 2011,” Daniel Hirsch, a nuclear policy lecturer at the University of California-Santa Cruz, told Global Security Newswire. “We could have large numbers of cancer from ingestion of fish.”

12. BBC News recently reported that radiation levels around Fukushima are “18 times higher” than previously believed.

13. An EU-funded study concluded that Fukushima released up to 210 quadrillion becquerels of cesium-137 into the atmosphere.

14. Atmospheric radiation from Fukushima reached the west coast of the United States within a few days back in 2011.

15. At this point, 300 tons of contaminated water is pouring into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.

16. A senior researcher of marine chemistry at the Japan Meteorological Agency’s Meteorological Research Institute says that “30 billion becquerels of radioactive cesium and 30 billion becquerels of radioactive strontium” are being released into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day.

17. According to Tepco, a total of somewhere between 20 trillion and 40 trillion becquerels of radioactive tritium have gotten into the Pacific Ocean since the Fukushima disaster first began.

18. According to a professor at Tokyo University, 3 gigabecquerels of cesium-137 are flowing into the port at Fukushima Daiichi every single day.

19. It has been estimated that up to 100 times as much nuclear radiation has been released into the ocean from Fukushima than was released during the entire Chernobyl disaster.

20. One recent study concluded that a very large plume of cesium-137 from the Fukushima disaster will start flowing into U.S. coastal waters early next year…


Ocean simulations showed that the plume of radioactive cesium-137 released by the Fukushima disaster in 2011 could begin flowing into U.S. coastal waters starting in early 2014 and peak in 2016.

21. It is being projected that significant levels of cesium-137 will reach every corner of the Pacific Ocean by the year 2020.

22. It is being projected that the entire Pacific Ocean will soon “have cesium levels 5 to 10 times higher” than what we witnessed during the era of heavy atomic bomb testing in the Pacific many decades ago.

23. The immense amounts of nuclear radiation getting into the water in the Pacific Ocean has caused environmental activist Joe Martino to issue the following warning…


“Your days of eating Pacific Ocean fish are over.”

24. The Iodine-131, Cesium-137 and Strontium-90 that are constantly coming from Fukushima are going to affect the health of those living the the northern hemisphere for a very, very long time. Just consider what Harvey Wasserman had to say about this…


Iodine-131, for example, can be ingested into the thyroid, where it emits beta particles (electrons) that damage tissue. A plague of damaged thyroids has already been reported among as many as 40 percent of the children in the Fukushima area. That percentage can only go higher. In developing youngsters, it can stunt both physical and mental growth. Among adults it causes a very wide range of ancillary ailments, including cancer.

Cesium-137 from Fukushima has been found in fish caught as far away as California. It spreads throughout the body, but tends to accumulate in the muscles.

Strontium-90’s half-life is around 29 years. It mimics calcium and goes to our bones.

25. According to a recent Planet Infowars report, the California coastline is being transformed into “a dead zone”…


The California coastline is becoming like a dead zone.

If you haven’t been to a California beach lately, you probably don’t know that the rocks are unnaturally CLEAN – there’s hardly any kelp, barnacles, sea urchins, etc. anymore and the tide pools are similarly eerily devoid of crabs, snails and other scurrying signs of life… and especially as compared to 10 – 15 years ago when one was wise to wear tennis shoes on a trip to the beach in order to avoid cutting one’s feet on all the STUFF of life – broken shells, bones, glass, driftwood, etc.

There are also days when I am hard-pressed to find even a half dozen seagulls and/or terns on the county beach.

You can still find a few gulls trolling the picnic areas and some of the restaurants (with outdoor seating areas) for food, of course, but, when I think back to 10 – 15 years ago, the skies and ALL the beaches were literally filled with seagulls and the haunting sound of their cries both day and night…

NOW it’s unnaturally quiet.

26. A study conducted last year came to the conclusion that radiation from the Fukushima nuclear disaster could negatively affect human life along the west coast of North America from Mexico to Alaska “for decades”.

27. According to the Wall Street Journal, it is being projected that the cleanup of Fukushima could take up to 40 years to complete.

28. Yale Professor Charles Perrow is warning that if the cleanup of Fukushima is not handled with 100% precision that humanity could be threatened “for thousands of years“…


“Conditions in the unit 4 pool, 100 feet from the ground, are perilous, and if any two of the rods touch it could cause a nuclear reaction that would be uncontrollable. The radiation emitted from all these rods, if they are not continually cool and kept separate, would require the evacuation of surrounding areas including Tokyo. Because of the radiation at the site the 6,375 rods in the common storage pool could not be continuously cooled; they would fission and all of humanity will be threatened, for thousands of years.”

Are you starting to understand why so many people are so deeply concerned about what is going on at Fukushima?

pat-tekker- cat;

Actually, I have lived very close to the beach in No. San Diego County for over 15 years and have experienced what you wrote. I used to walk the beach and pick up all different kinds and colors of stones--not any more. The reason, at least in my area, is not because we have been nuked, it's because the State has catered to the wishes of visitors versus to those who live here. More specifically, the tide pools, outcroppings and sea life in those areas is no more since the State has implemented a program of 'beach enhancement'--dredging sand from offshore or the inland lagoons and dumping it on the natural beach; filling up the tide pools, covering up the rock outcroppings thereby providing no protected areas for shore area sea life.

As to seabirds, thankfully, we still have them-- in abundance. All one has to do is to throw a piece of bread in the air and in no time the air (and the sand) will be saturated with birds (gulls, herons, pigeons, egrets, etc.; even squirrels come from somewhere to compete and participate in the feast.
Don....
 

Oh Lord, does that mean those Left Coast people are going to have to move back here and turn our school toilets in to multi-sex gender non-specific toilets ???

And they might start mutating too....
 

Truth versus fiction and is it in your neighborhood?

Go buy a roll of old fashioned black and white film. Walk around with it a few days, still sealed. Have it developed. if there are spots or lines all over it, panic. Otherwise, go to work tomorrow. The film picks up radiation and stores it as light spots. It also works with minerals. Sit the mineral on the film, see if any light develops on the prints.

Or go buy a cheap Geiger counter.
 

Deepseeker,
Seems like a coin flip; stay here in sunny So. Calif and get nuked or move back to the East Coast and back into all the reasons I left in the first place. Tough decision. I'll get back to you on that after I return from the beach.
Don.......
 

Not to worry. Cal. is in an active mountain building zone and USGS has assured the public that the "Big One" will hit within a decade or two...
 

really expected to cher listed as one
 

Nope says Snopes:

snopes.com: Fukushima Emergency

What tipped me off was that "300 tons of contaminated water is pouring into the Pacific Ocean from Fukushima every single day."

Kinda alarmist. Sea water isn't radioactive. It can carry radioactive elements, but small amounts of them, some of them with an 8 day half life. 300 tons of seawater is only a cube of 6 meters (20 feet) on a side, more like a leak than a pour.
 

Oh Lord, does that mean those Left Coast people are going to have to move back here and turn our school toilets in to multi-sex gender non-specific toilets ??? And they might start mutating too....

To Deepseeker AIDS (Deepseeker?)
No, but we will continue employing the locals at minimum wage and buying all of your shopping centers and best apartment complexes at bargain basement prices......

Actually since the shut down of San Onofre the levels in Orange and San Diego counties have gone down.....
 

Becquerel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Like any SI unit, Bq can be prefixed; commonly used multiples are kBq (kilobecquerel, 10[SUP]3[/SUP] Bq), MBq (megabecquerel, 10[SUP]6[/SUP] Bq), GBq (gigabecquerel, 10[SUP]9[/SUP] Bq), TBq (terabecquerel, 10[SUP]12[/SUP] Bq), and PBq (petabecquerel, 10[SUP]15[/SUP] Bq). For practical applications, 1 Bq is a small unit; therefore, the prefixes are common. For example, the roughly 0.0169 g of potassium-40 present in a typical human body produces approximately 266,000 disintegrations per minute, which equates to about 4,400 disintegrations per second or 4.4 kBq of activity. The global inventory of carbon-14 is estimated to be 8.5Ă—10[SUP]18[/SUP] Bq (8.5 EBq, 8.5 exabecquerel). The nuclear explosion in Hiroshima (14 kt or 59 TJ) is estimated to have produced 8Ă—10[SUP]24[/SUP] Bq (8 YBq, 8 yottabecquerel).

300 tons of contaminated water, Let's see. 300 tons x 2000 lbs per ton equals 600,000 lbs divided by 8 lbs per gallon equals 75,000 gals per day. Hardly something to worry about considering the size of the Pacific Ocean.

And by the way, you need to keep this in mind considering the "test" results.

Caesium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Caesium-137 is a very common radioisotope used as a gamma-emitter in industrial applications. Ever take a look at China's past "disposal" methods?



 

A little more info on how and why this article is a pile and intended only to scare.

Half-life - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Half-life (t[SUB]½[/SUB]) is the amount of time required for a quantity to fall to half its value as measured at the beginning of the time period. While the term "half-life" can be used to describe any quantity which follows an exponential decay, it is most often used within the context of nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry—that is, the time required, probabilistically, for half of the unstable, radioactive atoms in a sample to undergo radioactive decay.


So if the Hiroshima bombing released 8 x 10/24 Bq of cesium-137 in 1945 with a half life of 30 years, then it would equate to 8 x 10/12 in 1975 and 8 x 10/6 in 2015. So not only are we still dealing with the after effects of Hiroshima, we are also still dealing with the after effects of all the nuclear testing done in the Pacific.

So the small amount coming from Fukushima is a problem how? Funny how the facts are always left out.
 

For example, the roughly 0.0169 g of potassium-40 present in a typical human body produces approximately 266,000 disintegrations per minute, which equates to about 4,400 disintegrations per second or 4.4 kBq of activity.


Holy Beryllium Batman!

No wonder we glow in the dark! :laughing7:
 

I lived in San Luis Obispo in 87-88, worked at the Diablo Canyon nuke. Being East Coast mountains, we were raised California Dreaming. Loved it in 87-88, but EX had other ideas = Metro-Detroit..... Alas.....

But then, Kalifornia is no longer the same.....

May the Farce be with them.....
 

Even for Kalifornia, that's a lot of Bi Squirrels.

Or is that Killer Bee Squirrels . . .
