Is Fukushima-Daiichi even in operation anymore? I know they kept the other units in Chernobyl running for quite awhile (years) before they shut them down.

Japan shut down reactors that were sound.

There are supposedly nodules of frozen Methane Hydrate which start to occur at depths of 500 meters. These nodules are a source of untapped energy. ;)

Well, Fukushima was a massive clusterfuke for sure. It's inconceivable to me why they put the generators at ground level, on the shoreline, in a country that invented the word "tsunami".

Had they just put them at altitude, or had another set a couple hundred feet above ground level in a tower that could withstand a strong quake, no one today would know the city name. But of course, just having the entire plant relocated a few miles inland on a hill is the best solution.

So they fuked up with Fukushima, so who knows what else they did wrong at other plants? I'll take acid rain over a radiation disaster any year of the century.

That is factual. But is there a way to keep the Methane sequestered? ;)

High pressure, like where it's at 500M deep in the ocean ~750PSI in sea water, or in AOC's ass.

(Edit) I don't remember if methane hydrate is found as shallow as 500M, I haven't looked at that stuff for 10+ years. FWIW, the pressure in the Challenger Deep is ~17,500PSI. The bathyscaphe Trieste was down there a long time ago. I was probably just a kid. I still am, but I'm old.
