Japan to Bury Nuclear Plant

I find this absolutely amazing.

Japan has increased their nuclear level from 4 to 5, this based on an International Nuclear Event Scale. This is a common practice based throughout the world. France rebutted and stated Japan should actually increase it to a level 6. A level 5 incident is comparison to that of 3 Mile Island. Chernobyl was a level 7, which from my understanding is the highest of levels.

Japanese are still being encouraged to stay inside, and to leave all fans and air conditioners off!

They were given instructions to wear wet towels,clothes, and face masks if deciding to go outside.

AND if you do go outside, they ask that the citizens and strip and take showers immediately. Sounds pretty safe...huh?

More on this, and the plans for the burial of the Fukushim Dai-ichi Nuclear plant can be found here:

Over 200,000 Japanese are asked to evacuate and stay inside!

Nuclear Reactor now on fire. A meltdown is now a foreseeable future. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/

Japanese Government Warns Those Nearby Nuclear Plants to Stay Indoors to Avoid Radiation Exposure

This just in from the Huffington post!

Japanese Ordered To Stay Inside! (click link to follow story!)

There are so many different scenarios going on right now.

The Japanese Government is doing the best they can to avoid a full meltdown.

Fourth Reactor Now on Fire in Japan!

Tuesday morning, as an explosion at the most crippled of three reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station damaged its crucial steel containment structure, emergency workers were withdrawn from the plant, and much larger emissions of radioactive materials appeared immiment, according to official statements and industry executives informed about the developments.

Workers at the Nuclear Power Station are now leaving. If all workers leave, a meltdown is inevitable. The issues they are dealing with now is hopes that the prevailing winds don't blow southward towards Tokyo or westward across Japan and to the Korean Peninsula.

“It’s way past Three Mile Island already,” said Frank von Hippel, a physicist and professor at Princeton. “The biggest risk now is that the core really melts down and you have a steam explosion.”

Citizens can be seen wearing masks while going about their daily lives. Radioactive steam is being release, and drawing major concerns. What will happen next? We pray that another Chernobyl doesn't occur.

Third Reactor Failure in Japan

The anxiety of Japan, and the rest of the world, rose high when the announcement of the failure of the third reactor. And now, Fukushima Daiichi officials announced the fourth reactor is now on fire. The world stands on its toes to see the reaction of Japan in how they will move forward.

The death toll has already rose to 2,414 people, with at least 3,118 people still missing. Reporters from across the globe are trying to reach as many citizens of Japan...recording their stories of the events that unfolded. One account, which touched me the most is as follows:

"She had been waiting for help all night, outside. She had been washed away by the wave. ... The moment she opened the door of the house, the water flooded in. ... She grabbed hold of a tree and hung on, hung on for dear life with the water all around her. A ... floor mat floated by, and she grabbed it and held on to that."

As the woman spoke in Japanese, the interpreter's voice trembled in English: "Her daughter was washed away. She was washed away, and she has not found her." (NHK Reporter & Interpretor).

Japan Trying to Cool Reactors From Possible Meltdown

Japanese efforts to prevent a nuclear meltdown by flooding reactors with seawater are a last-ditch attempt, but do not mean that a nuclear tragedy is imminent, experts said Sunday.
Nuclear experts who have followed the developments at the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in northeastern Japan say that despite several setbacks, the possibility of massive radiation exposure remains low -- at least for now.
Japanese officials are keeping an eye on two nuclear plants that have released radiation beyond normal levels. At the Daiichi plant in Fukushima, in two of the three reactors -- Nos. 1 and 3 -- the Japanese government is assuming, but has not confirmed, that there has been a partial meltdown because of the powerful earthquake and tsunami that struck on Friday. At a second plant, in Onogawa, excessive radiation levels also were recorded, though officials have told the United Nations' atomic watchdog agency that the situation is "under control."

They report that they don't expect a complete meltdown.

The Sea water "appears" to be working, but with the unlikely side effect of corrosion from the the salt and boron in the water.

James Walsh, a research associate from MIT claims, "..a mixture of salt and boron is the last thing you want to do. It is essentially a white flag waving stating 'The plant is done.' They are using this as a last resort to impede a partial or full meltdown." A meltdown is a catastrophic failure of the reactor core.

As of now, they are picking up high levels of hydrogen inside the reactors...which is an indicator of a potential precursor of a meltdown. As of today, Japanese officials are still claiming this is not a meltdown."

The biggest dilemma that Japan is facing is the combination of the 8.9 earthquake mixed with the tsunami. The earthquake knocked out the main cooling system, and then the tsunami washed over the site and knocked out the backup generators.

All eyes are upon Japan in how they are handling this detrimental situation. Even though they are one of the most prepared countries in dealing with natural disasters such as these that occurred, everyone's skills are still put to the test. Global specialists are lending their hands and knowledge to assist where they can.

Japan hit by Earthquakes & Tsunamis

This disastrous event has left a death toll of 1,ooo people and climbing.

The world has come together in peace and support for this crippled community.

Thus far, there has been a report of over 40+ multi-tremors, called after quakes.

The Following videos have left the world in awe and stunned.

As I watched the whole ordeal unfold, I grabbed heart in sigh for those being washed away

while still in their vehicles...with no clue of what was to come. I saw it coming. I wish I could've stopped it.

I send my most heartfelt condolences to the people of Japan.

You have my Heart.

You have my Love.

You have my Prayers.

Attached are videos of the event.
