Karl Grossman, commemorating three years of the Fukushima nuclear catastrophe

Karl Grossman, reknowned author and educator on the inherent hazards of nuclear technology, brings us up to date on the ongoing catastrophe of Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident which began on March 11, 2011. Inherent in any such discussion is what lessons we should have learned, and applied, at "our Fukushimas": 23 GE BWR Mark Is still operating in the U.S. (identical to Fukushima Daiichi Units 1 to 2), and an additional 8 GE BWR Mark IIs (very similar in design). The take home lesson? Shut them down, before they melt down!
