Dear Friends, The news from Fukushima Daiichi is more and more alarming. In the past couple of weeks- TEPCO admits that some of the trenches hold very radioactive water that is seeping into the ground. A group of foreign experts calls TEPCO incompetent, and the Japanese government takes over the monitoring of radiation on the site. They quickly discover much more contamination, and TEPCO is forced to admit that it's been flowing into the Pacific since the earthquake/tsunami of March 2011. Next we hear that the groundwater is contaminated, and radioactivity is rising to the surface. The most recent headlines declare an emergency- see posts below. The US Senate is in recess for the month of August. This is the perfect time to visit with your Senator. We now have leaders in 4 of the West Coast States: Washington leader: Norm Keegel [email protected] California leader: Marilyn Ledoux [email protected] Hawaii leader: Geoff Shaw [email protected] Oregon leader: Meredith Miller [email protected] Please contact them ASAP. They will be setting up meetings with the Senators. We must act quickly. Peace, Carol Wolman, MD Here's the news: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/05/fukushima-leak-emergency_n_3707075.html The rising radioactive groundwater has flooded the barrier that was built to hold it back. 8/5 http://enenews.com/bbc-flow-of-radioactive-water-into-pacific-could-accelerate-rapidly-now-that-barrier-is-breached-at-fukushima-plant-clear-that-tepco-in-deep-trouble 8/5 http://enenews.com/reuters-exclusive-underground-barrier-breached-official-highly-radioactive-water-entering-ocean-will-flow-extremely-fast-reaches-surface-tepco-sorry-causing-trouble Panic is setting in. http://enenews.com/kyodo-radiation-crisis-at-fukushima-plant-toxic-water-entering-sea-for-years-tainting-ocean-and-marine-life http://enenews.com/the-times-lethal-threat-from-highly-radioactive-water-entering-ocean-at-fukushima-plant-its-posing-a-threat-to-life Meanwhile, 8/4 http://enenews.com/japans-first-astronaut-govt-lies-about-fukushima-disaster-vital-info-on-radiation-risks-kept-from-public-to-maintain-law-and-order and 8/4 http://enenews.com/ap-strong-m6-quake-shakes-northeast-japan-rated-upper-5-intensity-on-scale-of-7-tepco-says-no-problems-reported-at-fukushima-daiichi Pray, if you believe in a higher power. In any case, do whatever you can- spread this petition, email your state leader above if you live in CA, WA, OR or HA, and if you are so moved and live elsewhere, contact your senators, congressmen, city council- get the word out about the danger. http://www.change.org/petitions/west-coast-senators-investigate-the-ongoing-danger-from-the-fukushima-nuclear-reactors Peace, Carol Wolman [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAAMN: Los Angeles Alternative Media Network --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digest: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help: <mailto:[email protected]?subject=laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post: <mailto:[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive1: <http://www.egroups.com/messages/laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive2: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yahoo!
