Cpm703 Movie: “Cpm-703,” refers to the abbreviation of “counts per minute” and 703 million years, the half-life of the uranium-235 isotope. It is a physical manifestation of the damage done, and the movie, “Cpm-703,” tries to show the size of the problem for residents and farmers in affected areas. In Fukushima Prefecture alone, an estimated 160,000 people are still living in temporary accommodation.

The top U.S. regulator says American nuclear power plants are safer than ever, though not trouble-free. A watchdog group calls that assessment overly rosy.
….five of the nation’s 104 nuclear reactors were not performing at acceptable safety levels at the end of 2012.

The Japanese government aims for radiation levels below 0.23 microseiverts per hour as a long-term goal in the Fukushima cleanup. Throughout much of the grounds in Fukushima, the levels vary between 0.15 and 0.50 mSv/hr. In some hotspots, however, they exceed 13 mSv/hr.

Michael..what a great way to start a New Year! It is just way beyond terrific to have all of these important articles, with their links, all listed on one page. First of all, it is really impressive to see that there are so many recent articles that MUST be read, and second…it is wonderful not to have to go hunting for them. I just wish I had the time back that I have spent in the past, trying to locate these articles, in order to forward them to friends, in an attempt to inform and educate them as to the nuclear crisis that is going on, thanks to Fukushima. I just wish that the US Government would go and do likewise!
While I know that there are certainly articles on this potential global disaster to be found in some small newspapers, I have not, so far, found anyone, anywhere, who has been tackling the whole Fukushima disaster, head on, as you have been doing. And, in addition, you have also written many articles, plus, now, a five part series, on our local nuclear and toxic chemical contamination on the Santa Susana Field Laboratory.
I cannot believe how incredibly lucky that we all are to have you here in our midst, doing your knowledgeable environmental reporting, without which we would basically all be in the dark, when it comes to understanding and interpreting everything that has been happening in California, the USA, and the World. My hope is that in 2013, you, and also Denise, will continue to have the concern, energy and courage to keep investigating and writing about all of these issues, which affect the health and welfare of all of us.
Meanwhile, 2012 grateful THANKS!
