Sendai was hit by a tsunami and the cost was huge, but if you visit Sendai now, it’s quite nice.
People can understand this kind of risk.
There was a disaster, it got cleaned up. Now, people live there and are happy.
The same is true of many other floods.
So… I’d say we technologically advanced enough to deal with flood waters.
Unlike, literally every nuclear disaster.
Believe what you want to believe dude. No amount of snark, prancing or shaking your fist at the sky about nuclear safety is going to convince people it’s safe.
…until we have technological solutions that more effectively deal with nuclear radiation, radioactive substances and radiation related illness.
- kurthr 3y agoI've stayed with people in Sendai before and after 2011. Based on the snarky prancing I don't think you have, dude. Watch footage of that event again and repeat the words, "People can understand this kind of risk". Over 7M people use 300km of track and ~300 subway stations in Tokyo daily. Below sea level without electricity? There are many possible horrors we choose not to consider every day. Dealing with them rationally as a society is the only real hope.
