Japan Nuclear Emergency – Radiation Concerns
It seems the news keeps streaming out of Japan over these passed couple of weeks. The latest news is a continuation over the recent radiation crisis. It seems that Japan upgraded its nuclear emergency level to the maximum number on the international scale of atomic crisis.
Believe it or not, Japan is was having issues with aftershocks from the 9.0 magnitude earthquake in mid March. Over 400 aftershocks have been accounted for since March 11. The government is having a tough time sorting things out, especially with the addition of the nuclear issue. Nearly 150,000 people are still stationed within the emergency shelters set up after the tsunami. You can read the full coverage on Discovery.com by clicking here.
With the earthquake, tsunami, radiation, and nuclear crisis, it seems like something is out to get Japan. Are these some of the early signs of our the “coming doom” based off the 2012 predictions? I think we have enough issues with natural disasters that we don’t need to be adding insult to injury with self destruction.
