  • On March 11th 2011, Japan's most powerful earthquake on record triggered a tsunami, which then caused a meltdown at a nuclear power plant.
    It wiped entire towns off the map and forced Fukushima’s residents from their homes as radiation leaked from the plant. The government estimates the disaster could cost nearly $200bn, and the clean-up may take until 2051.
    Today the prefecture of Fukushima is still dealing with the aftermath of the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. What happened that day, and what was it like for the people who lived through it?
    The BBC’s Tui McLean explains how the triple disaster unfolded.

      1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
      2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
      3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
      4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
      5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
      6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
      7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
      8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
      9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
      10, Always try to give more than you take.
      Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
      🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
      People are controlled by system why?
      The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
      Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)
      😊 Well, I truly love God. I am not religious but very spiritual person. So, I believe 1) Religion is the beliefs in someone experiences But spirituality is having my own experiences. The mainstream religions people promote religious ideology by giving guidelines and guide but In my spiritual life; I do not want anyone or anything between God and me to restrict my freedom to worship God. 2) We do not need any authorities to do good work. The god work is the good work always. In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us. Nothing means not anything. So, even God is limited. The mainstream religious people believe that God is unlimited 4) God wants us to take responsibilities for our righteousness life but not for all the consequences of our actions because they are continued to exist among us. So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion. People always choose the perceived path of greatest pleasure. So, we do not have choices all the time. In contrast teachings of the mainstream religions are promoting people to do god's will always because we all have choices of freewill always. 6) We can not separate everything into groups. So, everything for good and evil and there's no success and failure for everything. If everything is real then real things can not be threatened. Once you come to understand that God/The Holy Spirit is in each of us, You will no longer need a Book to tell you how to live. Then why we need religious scriptures? The Virtue is the expression of the basic goodness in our actions. The Basic goodness is the fundamental worthiness of every individuals. We are worthy to God always in everything. 7) Beliefs in a cruel God makes a cruel man. No matter what; every living creatures has the right to live and What makes their life cheap? Everything depends on everything. Nothing too big or too small in value. We can not love and hate at the same time; Being a vegetarian means love without cruelty happily. The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone. When we eliminate all our unnecessary differences among us then true peaceful life is possible with the true love. If we can't find the peace within ourselves then we will never find it anywhere else. 9) This is the Fight for independence and freedom of humanity to worship God freely without religious guide and guidelines to restrict us. Unnecessarily, We do not want third party controls over us in anything ; especially in spirituality. 10) Revive Survive Thrive. Sincerely, The Real Peacemaker against religious oppression.

      Well, the close-out narrative pushed in this video certainly isn't credible. It's kind of amazing how after all those years they're still up to the same old tricks of having a soothing voice tell you the same half-baked industry propaganda line, downplaying risk and consequences in a way that would NOT be acceptable to these sit-pretty shills if this were about any other issue closer to home. Anybody who buys this BBC BS hasn't thought things through enough.

In contrast; organised mainstream religions are claiming that they have the authorities to do God works as leaders so on. 3) God is not capable of doing wrong thing, change the past for us and create anything out of nothing for us.

So, How can god punish us for all our consequences? The mainstream religious people believe we are full of sins because of all our actions. 5) Freewill is an illusion.

The mainstream religious people are killing people and sacrificing animals in the name of God. They promote God's cruel punishments. The Punishment is endless for Sinners/Devil according to religious scriptures. But God is love always. Overcome hate with love. If all religions for peace, unity? No way. Because they are not for peace. 8) Well, The God gave us everything to go from moment to moment in our lives as we do our part and pray only to thank god then the Love is in progress. The Love is always for everyone. We are always worthy of the God's love. Our greatest fear is; not to be loved by anyone but we are all loved by someone.

      Whoever disliked this video 🤢 System is the problem 🏡 Our Lives should be around Great Qualities
      1, Show all living creatures; all the love and kindness as much as you can.
      2, Only try to be honest with yourself. If you try to be honest with others, you will get into big trouble soon or later.
      3, Aim only one target at a time; otherwise you are chasing two rabbits and you will miss both. So, the reason behind it. Have one powerful reason and never ever give up the one you want the most.
      4, Don't try to be good person only but be the powerful person. We will grow to be the one or we will die. There is no other choice.
      5, Always learn and look for to improve something your life.
      6, You are not alone. Love and faith the high power reduces unnecessary stress in life. But never completely rely on it.
      7, Success and happiness are the byproducts of our usefulness. So, always increase the possibility of success.
      8, Life is not going to be easy. Because of our unnecessary things. Eliminate all the unnecessary things as much as you can by organising yourself well with the environments.
      9, Never believe anything without the proper evidences.
      10, Always try to give more than you take.
      Because it is dignity/ character of the divinity within you.
      🌎 As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
      People are controlled by system why?
      The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
      Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)

    Even with the Fukushima and Chernobyl nuclear accidents, nuclear power plants have killed/affected far less people than coal and natural gas power plants have because of their emissions into the environment. The emissions cause climate change as well as respiratory illnesses when breathed in.
    Also, the video never mentions actual numbers when talking about radiation, and numbers matter a lot. There’re natural amounts of radiation everywhere so you can’t just assume a small amount of radiation would cause large effects.
    Also, the Fukushima reactor started to melt down because their back up diesel-powered pumps that are supposed to remove excess heat were flooded by the tsunami. It had nothing to do with “a crack in the reactor” if the video was trying to propose that safety report had an effect.

    Nuclear Power-plants are probably the most safest and efficient source of energy but it is also the most dangerous one if ever something catastrophic happens.
    I guess the quote “The greatest positives equates to the greatest negatives” applies to this.
    Hopefully we will be more prudent now by placing more countermeasures and a more preemptive plan.
    Nukes just became more infamous than it already is but this shouldn’t be the case. Those officials (the directors not the workers) neglecting their responsibilities should really pay for, it’s really their fault to begin with.
    Edit: In the future we will inevitably run out of natural resources for energy and we would all rely on nukes and solar panels for energy. Hope the stigma goes away.

      Radiation can be harmful if expose nakedly like on land or expose air but once submerge on water, radiation level is as high as your phone radiation. True, it might look unpopular but that's a logical way to safely dispose and most of it are not from the factory but water from tsunami.

They've also been more proactive in evacuating the public and cleaning up the radioactivity by removing contaminated topsoil. With radiation how much exposure you have is what is harmful to health. Because people were evacuated quickly and the radiation exposure was lower than expected, most people will probably have gotten away from Fukushima without significant health issues directly from the meltdown.

      "The tsunami was bigger at Onagawa, reaching a height of 14.3 meters, compared with 13.1 meters at Fukushima Daiichi. The difference in outcomes at the two plants reveals the root cause of Fukushima Daiichi’s failures: The utility’s corporate “SAFETY CULTURE.”
      It is all because of the HIGH SAFETY CULTURE of the operator, the Tohoku Electric Power Company. They did not cut corners when the Onagawa plant was being constructed. Senior engineers are appointed to the higher management position who then insisted to provide high degree of safety considerations for the plant design.

      The comment about the radiation from Chernobyl being 'short-lived' is ludicrous. There's no such thing. And . . . it's why Chernobyl and its nearby town, like Fukushima, is now a 'ghost town' devoid of inhabitants who may never return safely; and it's also why an enormous concrete dome has been constructed over the reactor site in recent years - to contain the 'short-lived' radioactivity from the accident - which occurred in 1986 - nearly 40 years ago. A 'short-lived' time for some people and some radioactive isotopes - but not for those who risk exposure to Strontium 90 or Caesium 237 or even - ahem - Plutonium 239 which has a 'short-lived' half-life of about 24,000 years !

    This disaster would have been avoided if there had been a high enough and strong enough wall around the plant to prevent sea water from the tsunami from flooding the plant. It was extremely foolish not to have done so, as Japan is vulnerable to events like tsunamis. The other nuclear plants were strong enough to withstand the earthquakes, they were built to ensure that they were.
    Until some other form of energy is developed that is low or zero carbon and can provide all the world’s energy safely and efficiently 100 percent of the time then nuclear energy should continued to be used to some extent at least. Nuclear power plants are being shut only to be replaced by coal fired plants as in Japan and Germany for instance, and you cannot get a more polluting and carbon energy source than that.
    At the moment to get a 100 zero carbon use society the modern way of life will have to be replaced to one more akin to the Stone Age.
    And it should be perfectly obvious, for so, so many reasons, that going back to a lifestyle of thousands of years ago is impossible, and certainly not voluntarily.
