Japan: Fukushima radiation leaks reach deadly new high
2013-09-04 08:16:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant has radiation leaks strong enough to deliver a fatal dose within hours, Japanese authorities have revealed, as the government prepares to step in to help contain leaks of highly toxic water at the site. On Wednesday the country's nuclear regulation authority said radiation readings near water storage tanks at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant have increased to a new high, with emissions above the ground near one group of tanks were as...

Japan: Fukushima radiation readings hit new high in near contaminated tanks
2013-09-04 03:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Radiation readings around tanks holding contaminated water at the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant have spiked more than 20 percent to their highest level, Japan's nuclear regulator said, again raising questions about the clean-up of the worst atomic disaster in 27 years. Readings just above the ground near a set of tanks at the Fukushima Daiichi plant showed radiation as high as 2,200 millisieverts (mSv), the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) said on Wednesday. The previous high in areas holding...

Japan to Build $320mil Ice Wall Around Fukushima Nuclear Plant
2013-09-03 23:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: In an attempt to stop contaminated water from leaking out of the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant and entering the flow of groundwater that empties into the ocean, Japanese government announced Tuesday a plan to build a costly "ice wall" around the crippled nuclear plant. At at cost of 32 billion yen (about $320 million) the underground ice wall will theoretically prevent contaminated groundwater from flowing out to sea by freezing the soil. Freezing the ground as a method of pollution control...
