New Highly Radioactive Leak At Fukushima Plant

There was a new leak at the Fukushima plant on Thursday that released 100 tonnes of contaminated water. It is being called the worst leak since last August. An official stated that none of the contaminated was released into the Ocean, as the leaking chamber was said not to have a drain value connected to the ocean. This comes after increased anger with Tepco, after they delayed the release of information stating exactly how much radiation was pouring into the water. I have found the whole Fukushima situation odd. As this is a major deal, as that reactor has the potential to contaminate the whole pacific ocean. There have already been signs, such as deep sea wildlife dying and washing up on shores, that this process might already be happening. I feel that this whole situation has be shadowed by the media because there is something more going on there that meets the eye.
