Today's World News is a site for the people to know what is exactly going on in the news and the world today. Being there is so much hype and propaganda going on these days. This site will add several links so the viewer can research and see the actual news for themselves. Lord knows main stream won't do that for us. Check the links for yourselves. If you find more. By all means. Please share them so they can be added here.
The US Federal Government reports Japan nuclear radiation has now been detected in the drinking water in 20 US cities.
In my last report on radiation in the drinking water the Feds acknowledged detecting Japan nuclear radiation in the drinking water in 14 US cities. Today the EPA has updated the list with new results and the number of US cities where radiation has been found in the drinking water has grown to 20 US cities.
Image via WikipediaNotice how it seems the News isn't talking much about Japans Radiations Levels anymore? Some of this may explain why. I will do my best to try to keep people updated here. But the video below here seems to be covering quite well. He also leaves several links for more on the subject as well. More to come soon,
Tokyo Electric Power sought the Japanese government’s help in compensating victims of radiation leaks at its damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant due to the large amounts of money involved.
Tokyo Electric President Masataka Shimizu asked on Tuesday for the national government’s assistance as it faces a bill of trillions of yens as payouts to residents and local governments affected by the nuclear crisis.
In addition to the compensation package, the embattled utility firm has to spend billions of yen to decommission the reactors at its damaged facility, while company revenue is down because of a lower volume of electricity generated by its plants.
Shimizu promised Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano and Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Bann Kaieda to raise as much funds as it could to pay for the victims’ compensation, but asked assistance from the government to cover the total cost.
He did not say how much help the utility firm would seek from the national government. Analysts estimate the compensation claims may reach over $100 billion (JPY 8.1 trillion).
Aside from asking assistance from Tokyo, the power firm has started to sell assets. Company officials, including Shimizu and Chairman Tsunehisa Katsumata, have given up their salaries to raise funds for the compensation package. Tokyo Power also reduced board members’ compensation by 50 percent, managers’ pay by 25 percent and ordinary employees’ wages by 20 percent.
BREAKING NEWS: BEIJING, May 1-The Tokyo Electric Power Company is to build a makeshift bulwark around the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant, in case bigger aftershocks might further harm the already damaged structures.
The whole construction is set to be completed by mid June.
Please share this information and the link to my channels, as I plan on seeing this through 'till it's finally entombed.
Officials now say it will probably take longer than 9 months but let's hope not...or we are really screwed and this disaster will turn out to be much worse than any other nuclear disasters before or all of them combined!
I hope I'm wrong, but my gut instinct tells me I'm right.
peace and prosperity
