Japan plans to bury the reactors
On March 18, Japanese nuclear experts admitted, it may be necessary to consider the final plan of using sand and concrete to bury the reactors that are having trouble at the Fukushima I nuclear power plant to prevent blocking a bad disaster.
The above plan was raised in the context of Japan on the same day raising the assessment of the current nuclear crisis from level 4 to level 5 on the 7-level rating scale. Meanwhile, despite Japan's efforts, the reactors continue to heat up and increase the risk of spreading extremely dangerous radiation into the environment.

The reactors are humorous
Currently, Japan continues to use fire sprinklers to directly cool the No. 3 and No. 4 reactors and restore the power source at No.1 and No.2 kilns. Japanese officials insist there is still water in the nuclear fuel tank is used.
However, it is impossible to determine exactly how much water remains. Once drained, the fuel rods will melt and cause radioactive leakage. Experts also assessed that the second shell may have been damaged after the March 15 explosion.
In 1986, after the explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the Soviet Union had to use concrete to pour over this plant to prevent radioactive emissions.
Meanwhile, Reuters news agency on March 19 reported radioactive information leaked after nuclear incidents at Japan's No. 1 Fukushima power plant spread to the west coast of the United States.
Diplomatic sources say the levels of radiation are still low and do not affect human health. A diplomat citing information from a network of international observation stations describing the amount of radioactive material on the west coast of the United States is " extremely light ", while another source from the IAEA also said. : " The amount of radiation is very low ."
