Instead of blaming Greenpeace for its findings on higher levels of radiation around Fukushima area,why not Japanese Anti-nuclear activists force the japanese universities to take up this monitoring work as a third party and furnish correct information on Radiation exposures around Fukushima plant as the academicians are paid from public taxes for their salaries and they have a duty to do this work as a matter of gratitude for their pay-masters.Let N.G.O's demonstrate against the heads of the Educational institutions who have the expertise to help serve the interests of Japanes people by telling them the truth so that they make their own decisions whether to return to their native places or stay back in safer places far away for some more time instead of blindly believing in the words of Government experts.Ren Dubos,an American Encvironmentalist said long ago that 'A Nation which blindly believes in its experts is a nation on its way to death"Let not Japan make this mistake

Posted in: Seismologists warn gov't against restarting nuclear reactors See in context
Seismologists are scientifically correct in warning the Government of Japan to avoid tghe restarting of the Nuclear reactors. This is a very serious warning to the ecologically illeterate Japanese Prime Minister and the anti-environmentalist nuclear lobby and Governsment officials and politicians who just merely want to use the cloak of nuclear reactors for making corruption of as much as possible for investment for the coming elections so that they can come back to power. The politicians and officials who promote nuclear power have to be classified as international environemntal criminals as their main objective is to use the nuclear reactors also to generate plutonium and enriched uranium byproducts so that they can use them to make nuclear weapons which can be sold at an exorbitant cost through the heads of underdeveloped countries by taking advantage of their highly corrupt government administration systems. In the process these nuclear plants located on the most destructive earthquake prone circumpacific belt are bound to experience small and medium scale accidents which may ultimately blow into nuclear explosions which spread poisonous nuclear pollutants to spread to even distant countries and poison their air, water and land resources and thereby inflict unimaginable economic and environmental damaging costs that pave the way to the economic bankruptcy of the countries which happen to be in the zone of influence of the radioactive fall out due to the reactor accident. If inspite of the agitation by the Japanese against the restart of the nuclear plants the japanese government plans to reopen the nuclear reactors and thereby create manmade disasters which effect other countries all over the world the common citizens of the world have no option except to exert pressure over their national governemnts to boycott the import of all Japanese goods so that Japan is bound to face the economic sanctions imposed by all the foreign countries.

During 1950 Japan produced Electrical power based on coal for 50%,hydro-powewr for 33% oil for 17%.Nuclear power was a recent addition as it fetched huge profits for its promoters among politicians,officials and business lobby.So,even to-day,Japan can give up Nuclear power and produce equivalent power from Geo-thermal,coal,oil and natural gas and other renewable resources as practised in Germany.Hence Japanese people should not believe that Nucleaer power is the only alternative as being propagated by the decision-makers who want to use people's demands as a cloak for making tonnes and tonnes of corruption money to be used for election campaigns and personal purposes.

Edano certainly downplayed the nature and magnitude of the Fukushima explosion which occured as a series of accidents in succession. Edano certainly underestimated the health impacts inspite of the fact that there were instruments available to measure the outgoing radiation and its dispersal in the air environment and water environment. More over Edano should have referred to the potential accident scenarios which could have clearly shown about the magnitude of the source terms and also the airpollution models which could have furnished the amount of radiation that got dispersal through air and got deposited at different distances from the nuclear power plant. If only Edano wanted to know the information to make an honest presentation to the public to protect them from the avoidable exposure to excessive levels of radiation could have obtained the information from various soures instead of deliberately misleading the public on the impact of explosion just for the convenience of not creating the public scare among the people and thereby made the public experience more radiation doses which could have been avoided.

There is nothing like absolute safety in respect of nuclear reactors as proved by the explosions due to human errors at the Three Mile Island in 1979 in USA, Chernobyl reactors in Ukraine of Russia in 1986 and Fukushima, Japan in 2011.It is also realised by many experts that about 75 to 80% of the nuclear accidents are due to human errors. Fukushima explosion presented a series of events leading to the disaster which clearly show that there is no responsibility on nuclear safety among the workers of the reactors, supervisory personnel at the reactor safety organisation workers electrical and instrumentation engineers, site slection committee members, nuclear reactor designers, plant maintenance staff, radiation monitoring staff employed for detection of radioactivity entering into the air, water, soil resources and food chains and food webs in nature. Many people do not know about the concept of biomagnification of radioactivity, damaging impacts of natural background radiation on the breakingof the single strand and double strand breakages due to ionisation along with recovery and repair mechanisms working in various cells in different organs of the humanbeing, the entry of radioactivity into the water in environment and its biological mag ification which prevents the reactor to attain any safetylevel. Hence the concept of nulcear safety has become a myth and that is why several countries in Europe are bowing before the public agitations and demonstrations calling for the closure of the entire reactors presently working in several countries Since the Oi plant is alreadylocated in theproximity of a potential activating earthquake zone which is part of the most destructive earthquake pronepacific ring of fire.Japanese should never opt for the reactors and thereby indirectly extending a warm welcome to another disaster worse than what happened at Fukushima on 11-3-2011. The National government has been elected topower in Japan not to work as a blue print of the Nazi culture to wipeout the life and culture of Japanese but only to promote public health, national prosperity and sustainable development of Japanese people and their natural resources for the benefit of the present generations and in the interests of the welfare of the future generations. So for God sake people all over the Japanese Islands must register a strong protest against nuclear plants and show to the world that they are the true followers of Buddhism and blazing a new trial on the path Buddhism and thereby attain Nirvana the ultimate goal of life for mankind all over the world.

Posted in: Reactor restart debate swells beyond nuclear frontline See in context
Japanese people must understand the natural truth that normally healthy people and healthy firms of living creatures often cannot withstand even the background levels of radiation which has been constantly increasing in proportion to the number of small scale and medium scale accidents and routine releases of radioactivity into the air and water resources and hence the background radioactivity is also increasing day by day and consequently the incidence of cancer rates are also increasing that is why even the eminent experts in Cellular Biology who are experimenting with relationship between doses of radiation from different radionuclides and the impacts of DNA damage on both a single strand and the double strands of the DNA helix. The researchers found that sometimes even the repair mechanisms for doublestrand breaks are failing due to complex interaactions of ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, alpha, beta and gamma rays emitted by different radioactive materials which come under low energy transfer and high energy transfer radioactivity. Hence nobody on earth can certify that any increases in radioactivity caused by manmade sources like the nuclear plants cannot prevent hazards ot public health in the form of increased levels of cancers, mutagens and lowered powers of natural immunity inhumanbeings and all other forms of life. thus the restarting of the nuclear plants by the national government of japan under pressure from the corruption money making nuclear lobbiests, bureaucrats and nuclear plant promoting officials and their contractors and paid agents cannot make nuclear power safe. Infact several studies after Fukushima accident have shown that about 75% of the rector failures are due to human failures and also other manmade causes. In the case of Oi reactors located in a highly earthquake prone zone along the west coast and tsunamis can be expected and consequently the proposed nuclear plants can never be cent percent safe and can be subjected to catastrophic failures which may cost more money in terms of penalising the people by the national governmentof japan to pay for the victims of a potential accident as they did by paying so far about 4 trillion yen for compensation and this compensation payments will be going on increasing year after year by raising the tax collections from the people who are victimised by the routine pollution and accidental pollution from the uncontrollable nuclear power plants. Moreover in debating about the emergency planning zone demarcation from the nuclear plants Japan has set a limit of 30km, France has set a zone of 50km around the nuclear plant while USA has set a limit of 80km radius from the plant and a social welfare state like Finland has set this radius of emergency planning for a distance of 100km from the plant but the Chernobyl accident and Fukushima accident have clearly shown that the damaging impacts will extend to people living at far more distant places extending upto several hundreds of km from the plant. Hence the Japanese people and the University professors must make an indpeth study on this burning problems of life and death concerning nuclear reactor safety and alternative soures of energy to replace the nuclear power plants so that the common people can be educated to exert pressure on the national governmentof Japan to abandon all the existing nuclear power plants by learning the lessons from the Chancellor of Germany Mrs.Merkel who confirmed that nuclear safety is amyth and hence decided to phase out all nuclear plants by 2020. hence the people of Japan and their educated academcians working in colleges and usniversities must be study the followisng websites grasp the crucial scientific reasons for abandoning the nuclear power and educate the people by telling them the full facts on scientific basis as presented in the following websites.+ <http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2012/02/nuclear-safety-impossible-even-with.html > <http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2011/10/why-nuclear-accidents-are-difficult-to.html > <http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2011/10/kudankulam-nuclear-plant-explosion.html > <http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2011/09/why-indian-nuclear-plants-are-bound-to.html > <http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2011/08/diaster-consequences-of-kovvada-nuclear.html > <http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2012/03/overall-nuclear-safety-is-not.html > Prof.T.Shivaji Rao,M.S.(Rice University, Texas, 1962, Director, center for Environmental Studies, GITAM University, Visakhapatnam, INDIA shivajirao1932@hotmail.com

Posted in: Hashimoto raps gov't for thinking it alone can decide on reactor restart See in context
Hashimoto, Osaka Mayor has shown his courage as a responsible citizen of a democratic country atleast in name if not in action. Japan as a highly developed counry both scientifically and technically has also a moral and social responsibility to practice Ahimsa or non-violence and protect all forms of life including humanbeings by ensuring that the water they drink, the air they breath and the food they eat is free from poisons including radioactivity of any dosage over and above the natural background radiation. Japanese must fight against nuclear plants and against nuclear weapon testing anywhere in the world because by being apathitic to such actions they are not merely remaining indifferent but they also indirectly supporting the augmentation of additions of radioactie substances to the air, water, soil and oceans and thereby are abutting the crimeof increasing the levels of background radiation and thereby promoting growth of cancer rates sickness and mortality among all the people of different nations that are living on earth and that are likely to occupy this spaceship in the next coming decades and centuries. Should not be Japanese as high priests of Buddhism follow his foot prints and develop kindness, benevolence, charity, non-violence and service to fellow humanbeings and all forms of life on earth? Edano, the commerce Minister perhaps is halted by the ghosts which are hustling him to surrender to the huge money making contractors and nuclear lobby by illegal means and thereby sacrifice the lives of not only the people of Japan but also all the other countries which will be adversely effected by the radioactivity discharge into the atmosphere and the oceans from the nuclear plants. While natural background radiation certainly causes some level of sickeness the increased background radiation certainly accelerates the rates of sickness and morbidity and due to frequent minor and medium accidents and major explosions that occur once in a while as they did at chernobyl and Fukushima highly magnifies the radiation dose for almost all the people of Japan whose lives will be at stack. The Japanese people all over the country and those living in abroad must unite to organsie protests and public agitations to force the Japanese government to stop the nuclear plants by following the action taken by the Chancellor of Germany Mrs.Angela Merkel who concluded that nuclear safety is a myth and thereby decided to close down all the nucelear reactors ina phased manner whithin a few years and also take up alternative sources of energy to supply electricity to the people of Germany. If Germany ruled by the autocrat Hitler and yet produced an enlightened democratic leader like Angela Merkel how is that Japan who has Prime Ministers who confirmed on the myths of nuclear safety has also produced a new Hitler in the form of the commerce and Trade Minister Edano? Eternal vigilence is the price the Japansehave to pay to sustain their democratic form of government and to ensure sustainable development of their environmental assets so that the present generation of Japanse should maintain sustainability of their environment for the use of future generations failing which the future generations will not excuse the present generation for their sins of omission and commission in stopping the present Government from restarting the nuclear plants which must be replaced by a cheaper and economical alternate energy sources available in plenty in Japan in the form of sunlight, winds, geothermal energy and other fossil fuel sources like oil and natural gas which can still be imported from other friendly nations.For details on scientific and technical discussions and the myths of nuclear safety, see the following websites <http://www.tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2012/02/prime-minister-in-well-of-darkness-of.html > http://www.tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2012/02/kudankulam-nuclear-bomb-over-tamilnadu.html http://www.tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2012/02/nuclear-safety-is-misunderstood-by.html http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2011/08/diaster-consequences-of-kovvada-nuclear.html

Posted in: Gov't sets new safety standards for nuclear plants See in context
Nuclear Plants are just silent killers of man and nature.The astorm on 4th.april 2012 has caused low voltage resulting i n loss of cooling for the spent fuel tanks inspite of the 'stress Tests'being declared successful.It is a shame that a buddhist Nation that suffered hiroshima and nagasaki bombings still runs after nuclear reactors which become nuclear bombs in case of an accident likde the one agt Fukushima last year.It is much more shameful for the government to say that irrespective of the peoples'opposition,the reactors will start operatrions for the profits of the business lobby.Does Japan want people all over the world to realise that Hittler was a more liberal and benevolent dictator who killed thousands of Jews in concentration camps and hde never declared a war against his own Germans while Japan now wants to declare a Nuclear wArfare against theifr own Japanese who elected the Law makers? All trhe people all over the world must protest againzst Japanese government by declaring that Japanese goods must be prohibited and thereby impose economic sanctions against Japan like Mahatma Gandhiji fought the British Rulers by calling for prohibition againsgt the usde of British goods by Indians in 1920's and 1930's. Un organisations must also take interest in saving mankind and Nature all over the world and not become pawns in the hands of the business lobbies Nuclear reactor promoters purely for their profit and to the detriment of people all over the world.

Posted in: Storm briefly halts cooling system at Onagawa nuclear plant See in context
If a storm can block normal external electricity supply to a critical Cooling syatem that forms the lifeline of protection to the spent fuel storage tank in the vicinity of a Nuclear reactor,how can any rational person believe that its impact will not cause another Fukushima explosion?After cooling systems are intended to remove residual heat both from the Core of the reactor and its spent fuel storage tanks all the time and no body takes a chance to compromisde with Nuclear plant safety standards as stipulated by the Guide lines furnished b y the International Atomic Energy Authgority. That is why the Chancellor of Germany,Ms.Angela Merkel and the prime ministers of Japan confirmed that Nuclear safety is a pure Myth.While alternate sources of Energy are available i n plenty in India,the Vested interests in parliament including the prime Minister and Chief Ministers of states are all the time propagating that Nuclear power is safe and it is the only Energy that promotes National development. Nuclear Energy structure is resting onthe foundation of most poinous rocks cemented with bundles of mortar of lies that make Goebbel s war propaganda fade into insignificance.Every citizen of thde world must fight to save man and Nature by getting all the existing weapons and reactors dismantled if we have justify our existence as human beings because man is a rational animal and unless we use our humane brains to protect the interests of our progeny,we cannot expect future generations to brand us as human beings but treat us as wild and cruel animals of the wild forests.see web sites: http://tshivajirao.blogspot.in/2012/02/kudankulam-nuclear-bomb-over-tamilnadu.html http://www.dianuke.org/ http://www.pratirodh.com/nature-environment-and-resources-news/372-23-Mar-2012/why-jayalalithaa-must-refuse-koodankulam-project.html
