I think his point was that the tsunami killed 20000 people, and the nuclear power plant killed one, yet people talk about the nuclear power plant as if that was the only issue. This is kind of disrespectful to the actual victims.
- pvaldes 5y ago> the nuclear power plant killed just one Yes, I'm aware that some people will keep repeating this damage control PR stunt a thousand times, and that other naive people could even believe them and spread it, but it will still be false (and irrelevant). Every time that we talk about Fukushima we have the but "almost nobody died" rabbit out of the hat again. We have yet discussed why this is false ten times and frankly I'm a little tired about this tactics of draining our energy making us to repeat obvious facts again and again until everybody quits the room.
- user-the-name 5y agoOne scientific paper predicts around 200 excess deaths eventually. A single percent of the death toll of the tsunami.
