Two years later, the nuclear disaster 
in Fukushima, Japan may be affecting 
the health of young children in San Diego.

Last July, Fukushima Prefecture 
published a study stating that nearly 
36 per cent of children in the nuclear 
disaster-affected region have abnormal 
thyroid growths. This is an extremely 
large number of abnormalities - some 
of which, experts say, pose a risk of 
becoming cancerous.

In a discussion paper posted on the 
website of the journal Biogeosciences
that 150,000 sq. kilometers of the Pacific 
Ocean is contaminated with Fukushima 
nuclear material: a 'Remarkable' amount 
was released and is continuing to be 
released, via leaking pipes or "other 
routes", with concentrations of radioactive 
cesium up to 3,500 times higher than 
the global fallout background levels off
the coast of Fukushima, although the 
cruise track did not go closer than 
30 km to take measurements.

In other headspinning, yet encouraging 
news in the March 29, 2013 issue of the 
journal, Nuclear Intelligence Weekly article 
entitled: "Jaczko Calls for Phaseout in US: 
Says Plants Aren't Safe," 'former Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission (NRC) Chairman, 
Gregory Jaczko says that the current fleet 
of operating plants in the US should be 
phased out because regulators can't 
guarantee against an accident causing 
widespread land contamination. In two key 
decisions last week Jaczko said the agency 
"damaged significantly" its international 
reputation for upholding safety and he 
accused the five commissioners of "just 
rolling the dice" in dealing with severe 
accidents.' There may be hope for 
humanity yet!
