Fundamental solution for Fukushima contaminated water: Atomic stabilization
Fundamental solution for Fukushima contaminated water: Atomic stabilization
Today, the contaminated water problem at Fukushima is challenging the field of science. Fukushima has been pumping in 180 tons of water daily for 12 years to cool the reactor core damaged by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, but the IAEA and the global scientific community have not figured out how to stop this endless flow.

China and India have fewer people than UN thinks
