More than 28 million people in the United States have diabetes, and some 86 million are living with prediabetes which increases a person’s risk of type 2 diabetes and other chronic diseases, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Though natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, floods, and tornados are nothing new […]

Following a major earthquake in March 2011, a 15 meter-high tsunami ravaged the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Though the reactors immediately shut down after the quake, the giant wave that hit Fukushima’s shores disabled the emergency generators that power and operate the pumps that cool the reactors. The insufficient cooling resulted in the nuclear […]

On March 11, 2011, terror struck northeastern Japan in the form of a massive magnitude-9 earthquake, which in turn unleashed a devastating tsunami that wiped out virtually everything in the city of Sukuiso. The effects of the earthquake were felt around the entire world, and even years later, the people of Japan were still finding […]

Should Californians start preparing for a potentially massive earthquake that’s looming on the horizon? Going by data presented in a recent study, it may be a good idea, if not now then at least some time in the not so distant future. The study shows how a 7.4 tremblor could potentially rupture underneath Los Angeles, […]

If a major earthquake were to strike in the area you live in, would you be prepared to deal with it? Strong earthquakes are capable of massive devastation – buildings may crumble, roadways may collapse, water and power services are often lost for an extended period of time. Fires can rage through affected areas when […]

An animated earthquake map video produced by the U.S. NWS Pacific Tsunami Warning Center (PTWC) shows every recorded earthquake between January 1, 2001, and December 31, 2015, – the first 15 years of the 21st century. The amazing and somewhat terrifying animation proceeds at a rate of 30 days per second, and reveals a great […]

Magnitude 7.3 earthquake strikes off Fukushima in Japan, tsunami warning issued. We are still waiting for more information to come in, but it is the same area where a powerful quake shook the country for nearly six minutes on March 11, 2011. More than 20-thousand people died or went missing that day. The quake also […]

A study done by the Environmental Protection Agency in 2015 is drawing ire from green groups as well as EPA science advisors. The issue lies in the message that the White House tried to present as the finding of the study and that certain information was suppressed or misrepresented by the EPA in doing so. […]

It’s been tagged the world’s first Zombie proof house. Massive 45 centimeter thick walls shift into place, turning the living quarters into one massive concrete block. But when those walls recede, you’ll see gardens and an attached swimming pool. There’s even a drawbridge on the second floor. KWK Promes designed and built this amazing edifice. According to Mamta Bhatt’s article, the designers were […]

While most people visit a country to see its sight and sounds, Malaysian photographer Keow Wee Loong chose an unexpected “tourist” destination – the Fukushima exclusion zone in Japan. (Article by Mei Mei Chu) That’s right, the town that suffered the worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl. Located only an hour and a half away from Tokyo, […]

March 11, 2016 marked the fifth year anniversary of the Fukushima disaster, and Japan is still repeating the same old mistakes. The Kumamoto region of Kyushu island was hit by a 7.3 magnitude earthquake early Sunday morning, killing 33 people in total. Despite fears of another Fukushima disaster ensuing, the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) declared […]

Communities in northern Japan are being ransacked by wild radioactive boar exposed to toxins from the crippled Fukushima Daiichi power plant. In March 2011, an earthquake launched a tsunami off the coast of Japan, which destroyed three nuclear reactors at the Fukushima power plant. Since then, hundreds of tons of radioactive waste have been released […]

March 11th marked the fifth year anniversary of the Fukushima disaster, and authorities are just now beginning to pick up the pieces of the decimated power plant. Nevertheless, the Japanese government has continued to undermine the severity of the disaster and the mainstream media has been practically silent in its coverage of the unfolding debacle. […]

Last Friday marked the fifth year anniversary of the Fukushima Daiichi disaster, and radiation levels are still too high for both humans and robots. The remote controlled robots that were sent into the crippled nuclear reactors have died due to toxic levels of radiation, which tampered with their wiring. In March 2011, a massive 9.0 […]
