FUKUSHIMA: Pacific Ocean Will Not Dilute Dumped Radioactive WaterOperator of stricken Fukushima nuclear plant has been dumping thousand tons per day of radioactive water into Pacific ocean.
The reactors are ?riddled with meltdown holes?, building 4 ? with more radiation than all nuclear bombs ever dropped or tested ? is missing entire walls, and building 3 is a pile of rubble.
Whole complex is leaking like a sieve, and the rivers of water pumped in, the reactors everyday just pouring into the ocean (Faithfully everyday).
Most people assume, ocean will dilute the radiation from Fukushima enough that any radiation reaching the West Coast of the U.S. will be low.
Just as we noted 2 days after the earthquake hit that the jet stream might carry radiation to the U.S. by wind ? we are now warning that ocean currents might carry more radiation to the at least some portions of the West Coast of North America than is assumed.
Here is what the North Pacific Gyre looks like:
