If there was a major nuclear meltdown in Japan, would you leave B.C.?

I'd stay long enough to grow a second dick, then move to Bangkok

I'd move to your house CiC.

You must have someone set up for this.

@radioman
I have duck tape and saran wrap at my house :badpokerface:
but anyone trying to prepare for this will not be able to avoid it.
Even if the country was alerted, good luck trying to fly out as everyone will be scrambling to leave.

Not worried...........

That Helen Caldicott lady is not someone who's opinion I would consider completely accurate. She may be a physician but she ain't no nuclear physicist/engineer

Q. What is radon?

A. Radon is a radioactive gas that is formed naturally by the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water. As a gas, radon is slowly released from the ground, water, and some building materials that contain very small amounts of uranium, such as concrete, bricks, tiles and gyproc. Radon gas breaks down further to form additional radioactive particles called radon daughters, or "progeny" that can be breathed into the lungs.

Radon cannot be detected by the senses, i.e., it is colourless, odourless and tasteless; however, it can be detected with special instruments. When radon is released from the ground outside it mixes with fresh air and gets diluted resulting in concentrations too low to be of concern. However, when radon enters an enclosed space, such as a house or basement, it can accumulate to high concentrations and become a health risk.

Radon concentrations fluctuate seasonally, but are usually higher in winter than in summer, and are usually higher at night than during the day. This is because the sealing of buildings (to conserve energy) and the closing of doors and windows (at bedtime), reduce the intake of outdoor air and allow the build-up of radon.
shit, better stop living indoors. people that pitch tents and living on the streets is doing it right. :derp:

"If"? I thought shit went down already in 2011.

Honestly, if things go *really* south there, it won't really matter where you are in North America. All that fallout will get blown across the globe. I'd rather not stress myself about it.

Pray you get a decent superpower.

It will get blown globaly but look at that fall out map, we'll have way more end up here and in north America. Most of our food comes from Mexico, California and Washington state I think and it will all be tainted.

edit - on another note if a major meltdown doesnt happen, what will be the consequences of living next to the Pacific ocean that will forever in our life time be contaminated?... this should mean no more local sea food, swimming in the ocean, and breathing in vapors at the beach?

Lastly people shouldnt look at the country Japan and feel they are responsible for the worst disaster on earth... its our rulers (beyond the CAN gov.) fault as Japan is not sovereign to begin with.

SkinnyPupp 01-04-2014 06:53 PM

If there is a full meltdown, it will be bad, but not as bad as you might assume. I read that it would release the same amount of radiation that we released in the last 100 years...

Obviously not great but it's basically what we'd live through anyway.

We are doing far worse things to the planet probably, by burning all these fossil fuels. When you consider that countries like Japan are switching FROM nuclear TO fossil fuels, that is probably the worst thing that came from this disaster.

CharlesInCharge 01-04-2014 07:20 PM

But a big shot like this can collapse whole species and the radiation on land could last tens of thousands of years.

This two minute video shows how inhaling or eating a particle can wreak havoc in our bodies.
A Hard Rain (2007) clip 1 on ASO - Australia's audio and visual heritage online

What ever we eat will be like Russian roulette except the effects would take years to surface. Theoretically children eating dirty food or drinks could die into their teenage years.

SkinnyPupp 01-04-2014 07:32 PM

Tens of thousands of years?

The radio active material that is in the water is caesium-137 and caesium-134. The former has a half life of 30 years, and the latter has a half life of 2 years. There was also some iodine-131 but that only lasts a couple weeks.

They are definitely finding fish with radioactive caesium in it. Most are still within safety limits (how close to these limits you want to go, is up to you. I know someone who stopped eating chicken because they think they might get bird flu). One was caught with a lot more in it, I guess it must have swam right through the leak after the earthquake.

Don't be stupid.

I'd rather live in radioactive Vancouver than completely normal Florida.

yray 01-04-2014 07:46 PM

CIC, do you have smoke alarms in your home?

CharlesInCharge 01-04-2014 07:51 PM

Smoke alarm radiation and nuclear meltdown fall out radiation are incomparable for my healthy being.

Ronin
Living in Florida doesnt mean your food will come from Florida.

To SkinnyPupp
@6:50 the lady mentions Iodine-129 at 17 million years, this cant be good... who knows how long the other stuff lasts for.
