One would need to understand some science to understand why the storage of seawater at Fukushima is a silly activity motivated to please a stupid public. The death toll related to dumping the tritiated water, if it even exists, will certainly not amount to the death toll observed in the next from ten minutes of the indiscriminate dumping of dangerous fossil fuel waste directly into the planetary atmosphere, a topic routinely ignored by the moral Lilliputians who carry on, year after year after year about Fukushima while the coasts of major continents, from Australia, to Siberia, to, currently, the West Coast of North America, burn.

I forgot, though, that you're a nuclear expert, since in the commentary to previous post of mine you indicated you watched the dopey movie "The China Syndrome."

I don't get my information from comic books, OK?

I have nothing further to say to you. Most people raising these kinds of questions end up on my ignore list.

Have a nice life.

Yes, that is what my Russian sources told me TomWilm Jul 2021 #23
You need better Russian sources. It's clearly nonsense. NNadir Jul 2021 #24
