@RexRed,
I don't post this Fukushima thing out of a fear mongering type of motive, just a bewilderment.
To preface, I sometimes am not as bright or brilliant about physical science as I wish.
We need to make animals that can withstand radiation. Super organisms. We need to put this whole Fukushima complex in a bubble and send it away into space so it can be slowly absorbed into the sun. Eventually the whole earth (and all of the nuclear stuff we have made) will be absorbed into our expanding sun.
The enormous amount of technology it would take to hurl this entire factory into outer space is preposterous. But still.. it would be nice.
Or we can develop some organisms that can eat the radiation in the air and produce gold or some other useful byproduct.
Or dump earth on it and hope it does not blow us all to kingdom come, (pacific plastic lake of fire and all that stuff).
It seems containment is the key for now to try and contain it till science can figure out this and put an all-out world effort into it. Not simply let its contaminants seep into the earth's ecosystems. It already is. If we contain it it could blow back so the idea is contain till we can neutralize. What if we let it seep into the earth? Will the earth consume it or will it consume the earth? What if we sling shot it out of our atmosphere? What if we last resort submerge it in the ocean?
It seems organisms that eat nuclear stuff seems our ultimate goal and/or they are impervious to nuclear radiation, they could fix this. Aliens... friendly aliens. They would look at our sun like it was a feast. We need a tiny black hole.
