Physicist Demands Entombment For Japanese Reactors: "It's Time For The Chernobyl Option"

Video - Physicist Michio Kaku with Eliot Spitzer - Mar. 18, 2011

"If I had the ear of the PM, I would recommend the Chernobyl Option."

• Put the Japanese Air Force on alert
• Assemble a huge fleet of helicopters. Put shielding underneath them.
• Accumulate enough sand, boric acid, and concrete to smother these reactors, to entomb them forever.

"This is what the Soviets did in 1986, calling out the Red Air Force and sandbagging the reactor with over 5,000 tons of concrete and sand."

In the beginning of last week, energy ministers from the European Union reached an agreement to stress test all EU NPPs. The decision came on the heels of the 9 point magnitude on the Richter scale earthquake and following 10-meter tsunami which damaged the Japanese Fukushima NPP.

After the Monday meeting of the EU Energy Council, Bulgaria's Economy and Energy Minister, Traicho Traikov, announced the criteria for testing the NPPs in Europe will be ready by the end of the year while the testing itself is not to start until 2012.

What good will that do? They tried that with Chernobyl and now they need to re-entomb it. Besides, it is so close to the aquifer it is undoubtedly going to contaminate that and all the ocean that it is sitting next to.

This is a problem with no solution. Even evacuation and isolation of that area for hundreds of years that radiation will continue to spread..

Sorry Mother Earth, we hardly knew ya'
