日本的辐射水平高出报告水平18倍——核电为始作俑者

最近在日本福岛第一核电站外取回的水样显示，辐射水平比之前报告的数据高出接近18倍。2011年，一场海啸袭击了电站，期间，共有 19,000人丧失生命，福岛第一核电站也因此发生了三重熔融，这又迫使另外160,000人搬离家园。

虽然电站的运营商东京电力公司（Tepco）目前尚未查明辐射值攀升的原因，但他们却极力否认任何“泄露”的指控。

您已经厌倦听到核电站灾难了？我们也是。

严格说来，这也不是Tepco第一次公开丢脸了。上个月，公司的另一个储水箱——与福岛第一核电站受到质疑的储水箱并没有什么不同——向地面泄露了300吨的放射性水。这些受污染的水可能最终会流向海洋，如果发生这样的情况，那么，日本将面临一场新的生态悲剧。自电站发生熔融以来，南方的渔民就无法进行商业捕鱼，北方的渔民也只能捕到一些海螺和章鱼——一项重创该国捕鱼业的强制性措施。

日本的核监督机构已经证实，根据国际原子能采用的八级放射强度模式，福岛第一核电站泄露的严重程度已经从1级，或者说仅仅是“异常”，提升为 3级——“严重事故”。

升高的放射水平引起了Tepco员工的极大关注，他们加班工作，以便安全地盛装、处理并储存水。公司在保护环境方面的失败，也让人们开始怀疑他们是否有能力带领人们开展清洁工作。如果清洁工作未能成功，那么，停运电站可能会在数十年内，耗费日本数百亿美元。

作为对最新环境报告的回应，日本首相安倍晋三承诺，政府将在防治水体污染方面发挥更大的作用。

 “我们不能马上让受污染的水停止泄露。这就是现实。污水仍然在流向大海，而我们应该更好地评估其对环境的影响。”日本原子能管制委员会主席田中俊一说道。

NRGLab 厌倦了类似的事故。是时候让核能休息了——让它安息。是时候从巨型电站过渡到独立的可再生能源了。因为我们不必为了生产一瓦特的电力，而牺牲员工健康、国家安全和环境。至少，不再需要这样做了。

凭借创新的绿色科技，如生物燃料气化的SV-Turbine和无碳多晶硅发电机——SH-Box（多晶体发电机），我们就可以从内至外重组世界的能源基础设施。

一切都始于您、我、我们。当我们齐心协力，推动世界走向清洁能源的时候，也就是一切的开端。

Radiation levels 18 times higher in Japan than reported – thanks, nuclear power

Water samples recently taken just outside of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan have revealed radiation levels nearly 18 times higher than previously reported. Back in 2011, a tsunami rocked the plant, killing nearly 19,000 people in the process and causing a triple meltdown at Fukushima Daiichi. That meltdown forced another 160,000 people to relocate.

Although operator of the power plant, Tokyo Electric Power (Tepco), has yet to discover the cause of radiation spike, they vehemently deny allegations of any “leaks.”

Sick and tired of hearing about nuclear power plant disasters? We are, too.

This isn’t exactly the first public humiliation for Tepco, either.  Last month, the company had a storage tank – not too dissimilar from the one in question at Fukushima Daiichi – leak 300 tonnes of radioactive water into the ground.  That contaminated water could be destined for the sea, and if so, Japan will face a flurry of new ecological travesties.  Fishermen to the south haven’t been able to fish commercially since the plant’s meltdown, while those to the north have only been cleared to catch whelks and octopus – a mandatory measure which has all but crippled the country’s fishing industry.

Japan's nuclear watchdog confirmed it raised the severity level of the Fukushima Daaichi leak from a 1, or just an "anomaly", to a 3 - a "serious incident" - on International Atomic Energy’s eight-point radioactive scale.

The heightened radiation level is a serious concern to the thousands of Tepco employees working overtime to contain, process, and store water safely. The firm’s failure to protect the environment has spread doubts about their ability to lead the cleanup. Decommissioning the plant would cost the Japanese economy tens of BILLIONS of dollars over decades if the cleanup is unsuccessful. 

In response to the most recent environmental report, Japan’s Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, promises that the government will play a larger role in preventing water contamination.

"We cannot fully stop contaminated water leaks right away. That's the reality. The water is still leaking in to the sea, and we should better assess its environmental impact,” says Shunichi Tanaka, chairman of the country's Nuclear Regulation Authority.

NRGLab is sick and tired of stories like this. It’s time to put nuclear energy to rest – Rest In Peace. It’s time to transition away from the goliath power plants and towards independent, renewable sources of energy. Because we don’t have to sacrifice employee safety, national security, or the environment just to generate a watt of electricity. Not anymore, at least.

With innovative green technology like the SV-Turbine for the gasification of biofuels and the SH-Box, a carbon-free, polycrystalline generator, we can reform the global energy infrastructure, starting from the inside out.

It all starts with you. Me. Us. It starts with us as a species making a unified push towards clean energy.
