Toxic trash bags from Fukushima plant washed away by flood waters
Typhoon Etau has caused widespread flooding in Japan. While flood waters did not engulf the Fukushima power plant, they did sweep away 82 plastic bags containing radioactive grass and soil from the Daiichi site.(1) The plastic bags had been stored at the Iitate village before the flood waters took a hold of them. Approximately 30 Read More
Typhoon Etau busts drainage system and flushes radioactive water from Fukushima into the ocean
The Fukushima nuclear power station dumped contaminated and radioactive water into the ocean after a rush of water, caused by Typhoon Etau, which lead to the site’s drainage pumps to overflow. Typhoon Etau has caused massive flooding in Japan, prompting thousands to evacuate. Twenty-three people are missing and three have been confirmed dead. The Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) Read More
BILLIONS of dead fish now washing up in Alaska from radiation-polluted Pacific Ocean

Mysterious “ectoplasm from Ghostbusters” coats West Coast where sea life once thrived
A mysterious green goo is haunting the West Coast. Local fishermen have dubbed the mystery goo as “mud” for its thickness and muddy color, and have attributed it to this year’s abysmal salmon season. Fishing nets have been pulling in more mud than Nass River sockeye. According to Canada’s Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), Read More
Radioactive plutonium found at 10 MILLION times higher levels in water at Fukushima plant as radioactive rivers flow into Pacific Ocean
In March 2011, an earthquake launched a tsunami that left the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in ruins on Japan’s Tohoku coast. No one knows how much plutonium was released into the marine environment after the disaster. What is known is that the amount of plutonium in the water below the Fukushima reactors is 10 Read More
Whales continue to die off in Pacific Ocean; scientists suspect Fukushima radiation at fault
Whales have been dropping like flies in the Gulf of Alaska. Approximately nine whale carcasses were sited in late May and early June. Now, fisherman have spotted five more decomposing whales, a fin whale and four humpbacks, to add to the death toll. The first two whale deaths reported in May sparked a flurry of Read More
Fukushima radiation has polluted one-third of the earth
Radiation from the Fukushima disaster was predicted to reach U.S. coastal waters in early 2014 and peak in 2016. This dire prediction is proving true. Officials announced that the Pacific Ocean, which makes up approximately one-third of the world’s surface area, has been contaminated with radiation by Fukushima. All of this just so happens to Read More
Environmental scientist predicts 95% chance that another earthquake will hit Fukushima, causing total extinction of Pacific and West Coast
Award-winning scientist and environmental activist David Suzuki issued an ominous warning about Japan’s Fukushima plant, saying another big quake would decimate Japan and affect the entire West Coast of North America. In 2011, a magnitude-9 earthquake sparked a tsunami that laid waste to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, destroying three nuclear reactors in all Read More
More radioactive water flows into Pacific Ocean after drainage canal overflows at Fukushima nuclear plant
Severe Tropical Storm Nangka brought strong winds and heavy rains as it made landfall over western Japan on July 16, 2015. Approximately 360,000 people in nearby towns were advised to evacuate and seek shelter. To make matters worse, the heavy rain from the tropical storm caused a drainage channel at the Fukushima power plant to Read More
