Several things need to end. First and most importantly , TEPCO need to be taken off this project, and the government of Japan, and the International
Atomic Energy Agency need to insert themselves as the controllers of the situation. They should be given TEPCO's entire worth as a company to play
with, and to spend in resolving the issue. That way the people of Earth can be garunteed that TEPCO's wishes in this matter will be utterly
irrelevant in terms of the final completion of any restorative, and preventative measures taken to avert further contamination.
Second, rather than "draining" the radioactive matter into the sea , which would disperse the radiation over a wider area rather than actualy
dealing with it, new science should be implimented immediately, regardless of the problems associated with it, or the amount of money it would cost to
put theories years in the researching, into immediate practice. Here is an example of the sort of thing I am talking about.

The method above could render uranium inert, and is capable of purifying radioactive water. I found this in seconds, so the Japanese government ought
to be able to find it and a thousand other solutions in a matter of hours.
Third, people need to see this as a global crisis. This isnt something which affects just Japan, and its affect on the US, the UK and any other
individual or nation are largely immaterial at this point. It is the effect on the whole of Earth, and if the current solution is enacted, the ecology
of the worlds oceans, which is at stake. ANY concentration on the plight of one nation, or on ones immediate area is frankly an abomination, and shows
a distinct lack of intelligence, foresight, and depth of thought. Cease that crap immediately or damn yourselves for fools , its a clear choice.
Fact is what happens to the US , the UK, Russia, Japan, or anywhere else individualy doesnt matter a damn, when you compare it to the risk of
altering or destroying the balance of undersea nature, and its potential effects on the whole of human existance.
Oh , and one more thing. If this crap ends up in the sea , like they want it to, then folks think that will be better than radiation entering the
atmosphere and floating on the wind to other locations. I hate to tell you this, but the hydrological cycle of the Earth means that if it ends up in
the sea, its likely to end up in rain as well. Pleasant thought isnt it?
