Beyond Nuclear
11 March 2011
As we write, the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan is still not under control after a massive earthquake caused an emergency to be declared at the plant. Latest reports suggest there may need to be a deliberate venting of radioactivity after pressure inside one of six boiling water reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi plant had risen to 1.5 times the level considered normal. Beyond Nuclear staff members are busy speaking to reporters, monitoring progress and issuing updates and analysis. Please visit our website for updates and for the press statement which we encourage you to forward to reporters you know who may be interested. Beyond Nuclear staff members are on CNN and CBC, and are quoted in the Washington Post and on ABC News among other outlets at press time.
