A very serious problem is evolving due entirely to a blind eye to funding. We can’t do this. Wish we could but we can’t. As long as most of you ignore the fundraising. The problem will mount.
The situation is quite serious now.

RSN: William Boardman | Fukushima's Three Nuclear Meltdowns Are "Under Control" - That's a Lie
William Boardman, Reader Supported News Boardman writes: "The bland language of the official IAEA report is itself a form of lying, offering the false appearance of reassurance that a catastrophic event will be safely managed 'for several decades.'" THIS IS WHY YOU NEED TO SUPPORT RSN: EXCERPT:
Official government statistics show pediatric cancers almost doubling since the Fukushima meltdowns of 2011. Thyroid cancers are reaching epidemic levels. The Japanese government refuses to track leukemia and other cancers. The official Fukushima death toll is more than 18,000, including 2,546 who have never been recovered. Most of Fukushima prefecture remains uninhabitable due to high radiation levels.
On March 21, 2019, Dr. Helen Caldicot offered an assessment much closer to the likely truth:
They will never, and I quote never, decommission those reactors. They will never be able to stop the water coming down from the mountains. And so, the truth be known, it’s an ongoing global radiological catastrophe which no one really is addressing in full.
The Japanese government doesn’t want to address Fukushima in full because it wants to re-start all its other nuclear power plants. TEPCO doesn’t want to address Fukushima in full because it wants to stay in business as long as the Japanese government is willing to make the company profitable with billions of dollars in bailouts. The IAEA and the rest of the nuclear industry don’t want to address Fukushima in full because they don’t want to see the over-priced, over-subsidized, and ultimately dangerous nuclear industry die from its own shortcomings. With billions of dollars at stake, who needs the truth?
