Fukushima radiation is six times more than the previous high, more than Geiger counters can register. News media and governments cover it up ~ and radioactive waste to be used as garden soil!

Radiation levels at Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant suddenly rose to more than six times the highest levels they'd ever reached before now. And, of course, there isn't a hint of it in the mainstream media.
TEPCO, the company that owns the plant, reports today that radiation levels over 10,000 millisieverts per hour have been registered on the second floor of reactor one. How much more, we don't know. Geiger counters can't measure more than 10,000 millisieverts an hour! They say that they have restricted access to the room. But what is likely to happen to the workers who were there? The maximum allowed for reactor employees is now 250 millisieverts ~ an amount that was increased from 100 millisieverts for no medical reason.
The situation at Fukushima is getting worse. The improvements appear to be mostly cosmetic. And the whole thing is being covered up. Some information leaks out, but mainstream media doesn't touch it, spins it, or buries it.
Fukushima is the biggest industrial catastrophe in the history of mankind. [And further says] With Three Mile Island and Chernobyl, and now with Fukushima, you can pinpoint the exact day and time they started. But they never end.

NO PLAN TO PLUG LEAKS
To make matters even worse, TEPCO's recently updated plan for resolving the disaster no longer includes any reference to plugging the holes and cracks in the containment vessels of the reactors.
And that means
there's really no plan
to resolve this mess!
The effects are spreading throughout the world. It is almost certainly the worst nuclear disaster ever known. The Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings happened in, literally, a flash. The radiation was all released at once ~ yet those events resulted in massive suffering and long term increases in disease and deformities. What could we be facing in Fukushima?
As this slow-motion disaster develops, news of the spread of radiation leaks out. Fukushima radiation has virtually blanketed the world, and is contaminating the ocean. The Japanese government's response to the hugely increased radiation at the plant? So far, silence ~ except to assure people that radiation levels around the plant are now two-millionths of what was recorded at the peak of the disaster.
PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM AFTER...
Japan, the epicenter of this radiation quake, gets hit with one blow after another ~ and the solutions seem to be to hide what's happening or pretend it's really not so bad.
Their solution for 1,500 tons of radioactive sludge from the reactor plant? Since it's illegal to bury anything that radioactive, they're considering using it as garden soil! By the way, this stuff wasn't found on the Fukushima plant. It was found in sewage treatment plants all over eastern Japan. Worse, they were burning it, resulting in radioactive clouds of ash that spread far and wide, including over Tokyo.
Fertilizer in Japan is now assumed to be contaminated with radiation. Compost shipped from Tochigi Prefecture, south of Fukushima Prefecture, was found to be contaminated. Therefore, local governments are being taught how to test fertilizer and compost for cesium radiation and no compost can be made from fallen leaves, which may be contaminated.
Mushrooms grown indoors 30-40 miles from the reactor are contaminated by radiation. That means indoor radiation is higher than what's the government says exists outdoors.
Contaminated beef was released to market after the hides were rubbed and checked for radiation, but without tests on the meat.
The evacuation area is nowhere near adequate in size. Even 50 miles from the Fukushima plant is not safe. Lab reports done privately are ignored. The horrors of the Fukushima disaster go on and on, with no end in sight.
AND THE GOVERNMENTS FIDDLE
And, as ever, governments line up with corporate interests. The media represents corporate interests. So, there's a virtual blackout on the effects and status of the Fukushima disaster while we've virtually returned to business as usual.
It won't just go away, though. We, and our children and grandchildren, will live ~ and die ~ with the effects of Fukushima. The question isn't whether it will be bad. The question is how bad.

This chart provides an excellent explanation of the dangers of radiation exposure. There are also several links to radiation level maps in Japan and related videos.

The Wall Street Journal was providing an excellent interactive map of radiation levels in Japan up until April 2011 and then stopped reporting further details. Wonder why?
A map of citizen measured radiation levels shows radioactivity is distributed in a complex pattern reflecting the mountainous terrain and the shifting winds across a broad area of Japan north of Tokyo which is in the center of the of bottom of the map. Radiation limits begin to be exceeded at just above 0.1 microsieverts/ hour blue. Red is about fifty times the civilian radiation limit at 5.0 microsieverts/hour. Because children are much more sensitive than adults, these results are a great concern for parents of young children in potentially affected areas.
