In June, the utility company in charge of decommissioning the plant--which was ravaged by a tsunami in March 2011--indicated that its initial attempt at installing a similar structure had flopped. Its pipes were apparently unable to freeze the ground, despite being filled...

Japan: The Fukushima Effect: Insidious Radiation Impact

2014-08-15 20:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Nature World: Compared to the Chernobyl meltdown, the levels of radiation released by the Fukushima-Daiichi power plant disaster in 2011 were a drop in the bucket. Even so, a new series of studies has shown that certain types of birds, plants and insects in Japan are all suffering from the impacts of fallout. Researchers say studying these organisms will help them better understand the complex dangers of radiation. These studies were all recently published in the Journal of Heredity and detail observations...
