Ocean of Secrets

    Are we being told everything we need to know about the Fukushima nuclear meltdown in Japan? According to some recent news reports that answer is NO. The American citizens are getting better at seeing through the lies and cover ups of the mainstream, government run media. We should be thankful for the "alternative" media and the increasing number of "citizen" journalists exposing the secrets. This all stems from a catastrophic failure at the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant on 11 March 2011. The failure occurred when the plant was hit by the tsunami triggered by the Tōhoku earthquake; the plant began releasing substantial amounts of radioactive materials beginning on 12 March. Now, almost three years later concerns over radioactive materials hitting the west coast of the United States are at an all time high .As an obvious non-scientist, it remains difficult to know the true threat posed by the Fukushima nuclear meltdown. Opinion seems to be polarized, with some saying it represents a dire threat to humanity while others, mainly those in positions of authority, downplaying the issue as completely harmless. The Japanese Government has already been on record for years publicly minimizing the amount of radiation that was released. Our government and more specifically the EPA, will no doubt continue to do the same thing. The EPA’s horrendous role in lying to the American people and tens of thousands of ground zero workers in the weeks after 9/11, telling them that asbestos-laden air was safe to breathe, has also created an environment of distrust when it comes to public health concerns. The best thing to do if you live anywhere on or around the west coast is to take matters into your own hands and investigate, buy or rent a Geiger counter and see for yourself if your area is potentially harmful. According to Infowars.com, El Granada electrical engineer Steven Weiss, a 40 year veteran designer of Geiger counters, took his own measurements and found hot spots that were returning levels 14 times normal background radiation. Unfortunately with radiation only time will tell what the full effects will be, most likely years to decades. Whatever the official stance of the U.S government is always stay skeptical and question everything. - BDB
