Gun Birthday Decorations

Nuclear energy: the Japanese tragedy and we need to ask questions.

Faced with the tragedy that Japan can not join in the sorrow of all those people who are now in a position to have suffered more than the earthquake, even a tsunami.
All this reminds us of the tragedy that occurred in 2004 in the city of Sumatra, Indonesia, the victims of that event were about 230 million. If Japan will not see these figures, it is the simple fact that it had decided to come to terms with the seismic problem, putting into practice the use of advanced technology, clearly tied to the constructions.
It is certainly not to count the victims, the survivors scattered and because it would be disrespectful to what, but we can not note that the consequences of what happened.
addition to having swept thousands of people, houses, trains, ships, refineries, etc.. etc. ... The first earthquake and tsunami and has triggered the red alert for nuclear power plants, eleven of those involved at the time the first shock, the prefectures affected are those of Miyagi, Fukushima and Ibaraki. In the central Miyagi there was a fire, probably out of radioactive material, while the damage was devastating in Fukushima, was evacuated an area of \u200b\u200b20 km around the station, where there are two reactors, the evacuation is linked not only the first radiation leak, but a thousand times higher than normal radiation in the atmosphere.
Chronicle, confirmed by the Japanese authorities, said the need to release radioactive steam into the atmosphere were increasing, the fault of the emergency diesel generators, which were to operate in case of stopping the supply of electricity in a normal situation and consequently 'accumulation of temperature was growing. Having to continue to operate the plant, it was decided to take the shortest route but that's not all. In the morning, it was learned that the same system there was an explosion and the second reactor has been damaged the cooling system.
Le autorità competenti hanno dichiarato di aver ampliato l’area evacuata, cosa che la dice lunga sull’effetto di queste radiazioni, peccato però che come di consueto avviene in casi di disastro nucleare, si dice che ci siano stati "solo" 3 vittime di contaminazione e diversi feriti dopo il crollo della gabbia del reattore. Per il momento si corre ai ripari distribuendo iodio, mascherine e consigliando alla popolazione di non uscire dalle proprie abitazioni, di chiudere tutte le finestre ed evitare di esporsi all’aria, senza dimenticare la consueta contaminazione delle acque limitrofe alla centrale.
Va ricordato che in Giappone vi sono 52 reattori, ed undici sono stati interessati dal sisma, inutile dire come this will be dealt yet another nuclear disaster, continuing denials are taking place in the days ahead but now we can only confirm that even the best technologies currently continue to be useless, and in this case we speak of a nation's leader in the nuclear field.
Even our politicians and technicians attached to the lobby of the atom, that the Berlusconi government has unleashed, talk about a problem that can occur in Italy. Forgetting what this country is at risk from earthquakes and floods, not to mention the density of population, not counting what is the continuing mismanagement of nuclear waste in Italy.
This is yet another confirmation of how this scelta sia fallimentare e dannosa per la salute e per l’ambiente che ci circonda ed un ulteriore monito per far riflettere chi ancora sostiene che il nucleare è sicuro e conveniente.
Non possiamo quindi che ribadire il nostro No al nucleare e la nostra più convinta opposizione al ritorno di essa in Italia!
