The presenter is Australian Dr Helen Cauldicott, who spurred New Zealand into becoming Nuclear Free in the 1980s.
Dr. Helen Caldicott, is an internationally renowned physician, activist and author. She is concerned that she’s spent her life warning the world about the terrible dangers of nuclear weapons and energy in vain.
We need to listen to her – and ensure that New Zealand stays nuclear free.
HERE is her website.

AWARE ACTION – Shortly there will be a letter here that you can copy and send to the appropriate authorities in New Zealand, requesting updated information on radiation levels in this country, and asking what safeguards are being taken around imported food, not only from Japan but from Canada, Alaska and the west of the USA.

HERE is a very informative page from Greenpeace.

Here are some quotes from a blog by Christina Consolo.

“For the past few weeks, word of the extent of the Fukushima disaster is spreading like the radiation slick moving across the Pacific Ocean thanks to social media and a lot of newly concerned citizens.
Independent researchers who have been trying to warn people for over a year are finally being heard. Much of that can be attributed to citizen journalists, who have realized mainstream media dropped the ball on this a long time ago.
To understand the dynamics of information and how it has been controlled, you would have to look at companies like General Electric and Westinghouse, who not only build nuclear reactors, but own major news outlets.”
After the earthquake and tsunami “There were 3 meltdowns almost right away, and that the radioactive isotopes that blew all over Japan, Hawaii, Alaska, Canada and North America came in extraordinarily high quantities.”
“Tons of water continues to get poured into the reactors and flow subsequently into the Pacific Ocean, every second of every day.
Radiation continues to steam itself out of the ground, and thus up into the air, which then blows over us (i.e. resident of the northern hemisphere).
nb – very high radiation levels have been picked up in Queensland Aust, and Dunedin NZ, by people with geiger counters – so it isn’t just the northern hemisphere. – Lisa
Earthquakes still happen daily around Japan. In fact there were 7 or 8 of them just in the past few days near Fukushima.
The spent fuel still sits in its shaky nest at the top of reactor number 4. Nothing has been done to further reinforce the structure.”
“Why do people get a warm fuzzy feeling when we see people rushing to aid those in the midst of disaster? Because we humans are hard-wired to care for others, and long to be part of a community.
Out of disaster, there is camaraderie, sympathy, and empathy. There are important lessons to be learned.”
If you have concerns about the effects of radiation on you and your family, here are some suggestions for your protection:
Potassium Iodine Pills (Potassium Iodide)
