You haven't been paying attention. That's ok I'll inform you about the situation.
Tons of citizens in Japan are volunteering RIGHT NOW, but are being turned away by the authorities because they are not "skilled or experienced" enough.
They want people who have "official jobs/capacity" in dealing with this.
Please research Chernobyl and you will realize I'm actually right about rotating people out.

I only wish I could give my life for a cause such as this, self sacrifice for something so much greater than just myself. If I'd the resources, I'd go in a heartbeat, but unfortunately stuck, serving myself, for no cause at all but to have a little food in my belly and a roof over my head.
You have the means to make it to Japan and do your suicide mission, you just don't have what it takes.
GENESIS OF THE IDEA
I came to a realization while reading about the Fukushima 50.
THE IDEA
To have a national or international organization create a system for training and registration of volunteers which are to be called-up in situations of dire need for a person(s) to undertake "suicide-missions" or highly hazardous situations, or missions. This would not replace Military, Police, or Fire Fighters, EMS, etc who may face danger in their work, although these people may volunteer as well.
Take a moment to imagine situations where this system could be of great benefit to human life.

But these same people, who are now getting hero status, are the same people who created this disaster.
I simply can't give them that hero status, cause right now they have to fix this problem, created by them self.
Every one of those technician, and expert knew the risk, and totaly ignored it.
To the rest of the crew, i can only say....Fix the mess you have created...

Yes, because exposing tens of thousands or even a million people directly to high levels of lethal radiation is a GOOD IDEA!!
I'm going to pretend this is sarcasm or even outright trolling in hopes that you don't actually believe this is even remotely a logical attempt at a remedy for this nightmare. I'm going to give you that.
You don't know anything about radiation exposure than I suppose.
By rotating out people, you can make sure that each person never exceeds their limits for radiation exposure, keeping any adverse side effects minimized.
Do you know anything about Chernobyl? They rotated tons of people out on that one, and it potentially SAVED tons of lives.
Back to real life....now, since potentially over 100 million people have already BEEN exposed to this pollution, perhaps we should take this matter more serious and accept the fact that it's ultra-bad and we need a unified international effort with every able body we can get. And start entombing this bad boy asap!!
