Waiting to here the outcome of the concerted effort to remove the Radiated Tubes. Haven't heard one update since the Yahoo article.
As of today, 1/22/2014 put me down as 6, slightly concerned about Fukushima's possible long term effects on the planet.

as one who experienced TMI from a close proximity, until the mox fuel in Reator 4 are contained/secured, i'm holding at an 8.5
this is already beyond horrible and still holds the potential to be a planet changing event.
the slow, debilitating deterioration of the next generation still won't be proof enough for some ... they'll just blame the cell phones
why cant people be logical when thinking of the scenario...

thanks for the reply but i strongly disagree.
the recent release of information concerning the plankton between HI and mainland US only intensifies my concerns.
the whales, walruses, seals, dolphin and all other inhabitants of the poisonous tree (Pacific) are showing definitive signs of radiation sickness/disease and this will only compound over time.
unfortunately, it is the generations to come who will suffer the most.
We are actually talking about the same thing.... just differing scales of intensity, that's all... I do believe that radiation from Fukushima will bio-accumulate. But the effects will be local to the area around the plant (as it currently is today) for quite some time. There's just too much water in the ocean.
Abstract
Massive amounts of anthropogenic radionuclides were released from the nuclear reactors located in Fukushima (northeastern Japan) between 12 and 16 March 2011 following the earthquake and tsunami.
Ground level air radioactivity was monitored around the globe immediately after the Fukushima accident.
This global effort provided a unique opportunity to trace the surface air mass movement at different sites in the Northern Hemisphere. Based on surface air radioactivity measurements around the globe and the air mass backward trajectory analysis of the Fukushima radioactive plume at various places in the Northern Hemisphere by employing the Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory model, we show for the first time, that the uninterrupted complete revolution of the mid-latitude Surface Westerlies took place in less than 21 days, with an average zonal velocity of > 60 km/h.
The position and circulation time scale of Surface Westerlies are of wide interest to a large number of global researchers including meteorologists, atmospheric researchers and global climate modellers.Abstract

Why we cant close this Thread?
The Study ( from the Swiss Embassy)
used a wrong Picture but they exchanged it
already and excused them self for all the concern!

hmmmm, access to that site demands a browser upgrade this old system can't handle. any chance there is something that all of us can review ?
in the pic you posted, it is described as "surface temps" not wind patterns which change, daily.
