They can't simply store that ever growing volume of water forever. But it seems it should be possible to filter out the radioactive material somehow. It's this kind of thing that really argues well against nuclear fission as a power source.

These slint eye bastards were told what to do from the very start but they did what they wanted to and the ocean is destroyed.

Yes, well said. I haven't eaten tuna since 2011, and probably never will again.

Don't they realize they're poisoning their own food supply if they do that?

When Hillary was Secreatary of State she negotiated an agreement to let the world ship radioactive food to America. Japan has very high standards for food safety with respect to radiation. America allows twice as much as EU. We are Number One in allowing radiation in our food.

I've heard that all the heavy isotopes have been removed insofar as that is possible. I don't have hard evidence of that, but that's what all the mainstream sources say. Your mileage may vary.

What they cannot remove by filtration or other conventional processes is tritium. Tritium is really water - heavy water - and they tell us that there is no way to separate water from water. That is why they have to dump it. I could be way wrong, but that's the story.

"The half-life of the unstable tritium nucleus is of 12.3 years, which is very short on the radioactive time-scale. This comparatively fast disappearance means that very little tritium can accumulate in any place." - www.radioactivity.eu.com › site › pages › Tritium

The Fukushima disaster occured in 2011. I don't know if the half life information tells us anything about oceanic hazards.

Thanks for the potentially good news.

"Good news" stories are few and far between these days. : )
