Fairewinds Introduces a Japanese Language Edition and Identifies Safety Problems in all Reactors Designed Like Fukushima
http://vimeo.com/29294797
Gundersen expresses concerns that the nuclear industry and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission are not addressing major safety issues that have become evident since Fukushima. These issues include serious design flaws in the BWR Mark 1 containment, fundamental flaws in the Boiling Water Reactor vessel design, and problems with detonation shockwaves. The NRC and the nuclear industry are using a flawed cost benefit computer code that underestimates the value of human life and minimize property damages after an accident, which has the effect of justifying continued operation of reactors without safety modifications.

Also, Fairewinds announces the launch of the Japanese language version of its site, Fairewinds.jp.

sidenote: I edited out a couple of minutes to stay under the 15 minute upload mark. I do not have Any Strikes on my account, yet YouTube has taken the opportunity to not allow me uploads longer than 15 minutes. Hopefully, if you have the same issue with your channel, you can reupload this version to your channel too.

  • I think the rude comments on this site are inappropriate and uncalled for. Shame on them.

    Keep up the good work Mr. Gundersen! We've been following you since the Fukushima debacle and have been impressed by your knowledge and expertise in this field. We look forward to your insight on this very important topic.

  • @radiationtest Seriously? You even watch Fox News? I'm English and even I know Fox news never speaks the truth. Still I just learned a lot about NP from this video. And now because of your comment I have to go find out what "bloombox technology" is so thanks for that!!! ;)

  • The Japanese government claims they are on a road to recovery, they even claim people will be able to move back to fukushima. This statement is non-sense. I remember when the accident first happened, the government was telling people within 10 km of the plant to "stay inside, dont run your air conditioner, dont hang dirty laundry out to dry, and just wait the radiation out." Of course the actions proposed by the government were a death sentence to anyone who listened.

  • @hearv888 nuclear power is expensive, dirty, and dangerous. Nor is it needed. The answers to the energy problem have been around for a long time. use bloombox technology to decentralize the power grid then implement, hydrogen, solar, wind, energy conservation, and geothermal. I saw a news report from fox news, they said radiation is good for you. Radiation causes cancer and damages the gene pool. soon all those who believe it's good for you will find out otherwise

  • One nuclear-wise in my back yard. Figures!

  • The next nuclear disaster would be coming from Israel but we have a religious brainwashed by mass media, military industry elites, and schools ignoring there are over 300 units of nuclear weapons are hidden in Israel that nobody has any saying at all. Fukushima nuclear ignorance are created by them and their $ greed.

  • @hearv888 ,,, You've got to be kidding me.

  • @Rob187ok i dont think so... radiation is all around us and nuclear power is great! we just need to be more careful..

  • There will be no clean-up. There is no way to do it. God help us all.

  • Nuclear power is just to evil to mess with at all..

  • Once again perfectly put
