The 4-Steps Round Up 07.17.2015

A historic week for the nuclear era both in past and present but the pressing issues of #Fukushima are more urgent still.  From food safety to the toxic mess oozing from the plant, team-ups are needed and here’s how you do that, step-by-step:

STEP 1 EDUCATE & SAFEGUARD

70 years ago this week, the Trinity bomb was detonated in New Mexico as part of the Manhattan Project and that’s when all our troubles began.

STEP 2 EVACUATE #FUKUSHIMA NOW

Despite an encouraging visit from the Imperial family and Abe’s protests to Taiwan, food safety is still the big issue in #Fukushima.

STEP 3 CONTROL & CONTAIN

Cesium, plutonium and hydrazine, oh my!  Pick your poison, it’s coming from the plant at #Fukushima Daiichi

STEP 4 NUCLEAR POWER IS OVER

On paper, the Iran nuclear deal this week looks like a plus for all parties but why is nuclear used as a carrot for peace when the stick equals is death?
