well the pandemic no certainly no blood is just blind to nationalities. has emerged we don't have a turkey we don't have a back seat the whole world needs to be. people. judging. comedy crisis at least this. time so we can do better we should. everyone is contributing each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenge is creating the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together.

i understand that he of vermont doesn't and how to lead the world in getting off rogers and joy and moving toward global energy as fast as possible the planet will be unlivable for organisms like us. shut down vermont yankee in 2012 meet the promise that we may be sure that actually scheana cleans up the mass and much of our governor who's going to move us sure noble energy and move to his shane energy future let's vote for change on november 2nd thank you so much.

right peter shumlin. do solemnly swear that i will be true and faithful to the state of vermont. where there will be true and faithful to the state of vermont. federal regulators now say that for my gang he is fit to be open for another 20 years or geno bowler joins us now with the latest on this jena kristen late this afternoon in a conference call that. a regulatory commission announced that they voted to extend for model employees license the n.r.c. says it will formally issue resume to its new license and a matter of but i. there vermont law the public service board in the legislature must also approval less than 6.

during. the night on nightline a nuclear emergency a massive new explosion rocks

a crippled reactor plant in japan prompting the greatest fears yet radiation catastrophe and a new wave of back to a should. call out for this reactor up in smoke how dangerous radiation leaks can be a plant located on a seismic fault the smoldering disaster zone the latest challenge at the fukushima daiichi site a fire in the number 4 reactor that's right down here in the area just near the roofs were highly radioactive spent fuel rods are stored in this turn for the worse in reactor 4 after a day in which there was some evidence japan might finally be making some small progress as it struggles with the worst nuclear crisis since trolled. let's assess the risk with arnie gundersen he's a nuclear safety advocate who consults with them on state government about the month yankee nuclear plant mr gundersen joining us on the telephone sir based on what you have heard this is reactor number 4 there was a fire there the other day what does that tell. mr gundersen i've learned from my sources that the radiation levels in the 4th reactor are so high that they've had

to evacuate the personnel from there what that indicates is that the fuel pool is running out of order and if the personnel are not there to keep it refilled it doesn't surprise me that radiation levels are increasing dramatically if the wind turns and goes the other way. i would suspect contamination not just in japan but but potentially korea and china as well unless time they have before this is catastrophic it can boil dry in a day so they have you know on the order of 24 hours to straighten it out arnie gundersen is a very sober assessment we appreciate your expertise you've had experience building these spent fuel rods checks and we appreciate your expertise tonight i can't say i enjoy what i'm hearing but i'm glad we're getting from someone who knows this so well mr gundersen thank you so much.

i show bang theory i felt scared felt very sad when i heard about focus. because of the people there who were displaced and because of the contamination of our world environment. those folks had to evacuate and god knows for how long i love this place i love where i live i don't want that to happen here. i don't want to see this beautiful paradise destroyed like that.

in the united states there's 23 general electric mark one reactors identical to fukushima daiichi for mining he came on line all of. the fukushima dai ichi you know what. they have the same design. the same reactor same contractors worked on them and the same flaws and weaknesses. the containment structure designed to hold in all the radioactivity after an accident is too small by $986.00 the nuclear regulatory commission had determined there were 85 percent probability that the containment would blow up and fail in the event of a meltdown. or so much hydrogen gas would be released that the containment would be blown to smithereens and all of the radioactivity inside it would be. released to the public to push him a show dishonor percent 3 of. their regulators have known that this

design isn't capable of withstanding an accident since it was built. during the middle of the crisis and hooper she went to each one of the key regulators at the n.r.c. a guy named chuck casto said this is the worst containment in the world. well of a source containment in the world why are we keeping $23.00 of them running here in america. the actual fukushima dai ichi was caused by an earthquake and the tsunami. but really at the root of it was that the earthquake knocked out the off site power and that the tsunami knocked out the cooling more pumps on warming the ocean. that can happen anywhere you can lose offsite power from the storm or from a target action and you can lose the pumps they call the plant from the same exact

cause so we don't need a tsunami we don't need an earthquake to cause that kind of a damage in an american nuclear plant. i'm here because i think this is very dangerous we're facing the end of life as if it just about. when i heard that. it up i was devastated. i thought i've got to get air. yankee because it's our.

last. call or. we would like to believe. everything that i know to do all i have left is my body. just say no. we will definitely be doing it together again. a women

a women. when people asked me how many times have you been arrested and i say not. the afternoon. sued the state of vermont in the u.s. district court. lawsuit claims that vermont should have no role in approving vermont yankee spew church after 2012 in the state of vermont i don't think it's too much to say that this is this is an anti-democratic situation you've got a large. wealthy out of state corporation trying to have its way and override the. the legitimate laws of a sovereign state and it's a it's

a power struggle unfortunately for not being its size it's a david versus goliath power struggle but this one we've got a lot of energy to fight. it's the 1st day of the trial of energy corporation versus the state of vermont and there are many of us who want to support the state of vermont in that legal battle we believe that corporations are businesses that operate in the state of vermont should be should be falling from our long. this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass on where's the power in this country where is it going is it moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea the idea of

a traditional participatory democracy is power lie with the people. this case demonstrates that struggle in very real ways.

the world is driven by shaped by. the dares thinks. we dare to ask. those of us who watch carefully the russia gate hoax always worried that it would eventually become the foundation for policy the biden ministration has done things i mean this is what you do with chance of foreigners or american liberals fund raising dissociating. when it became clear that entergy was going to continue to operate past the end of its 40 year license which came to an end on

march 21st 2012. we felt that it was necessary to. take an action that would inspire people in the area not to give up. not to allow themselves to be rolled over by this corporation. we are here to demonstrate in the most dramatic way we can that a gross injustice is being a committed by this pro corporation the entergy corporation against the people the government of ramadi and the whole surrounding area where all of us are threatened by this reactor as long as it stays open we are calling upon the entergy to respect the democratic process in vermont and to shut this dangerous leaking accident

played plant down. there are times when you feel something so strongly that just holding up a picket sign or just attending a rally or demonstration is not enough you want to speak with your whole life your whole body and so we are placing ourselves in jeopardy jeopardy of being arrested and possibly jailed in order to make the strongest statement that our conscience is called post. mistake years life mistake years or future generations the very things that we need

to exist clean water clean air the health of our citizens it's all at stake and for what. for right now it's just for corporate profit that's all it is. it's a power struggle about the will of the people to decide what's best for them. it's a political struggle about the basic fabric of our country this about democracy so this is about whether people's voices are going to be heard.

yankee is shutting down nuclear power plants will close by the end of next year of officials from entergy which owns vermont yankee made a surprise announcement this morning. today's an extremely tough day for us of interest and more importantly really 630 employees that for my yankee earlier this morning we told these men and women that vermont yankee nuclear power station will stop operating at the end of its current fuel cycle and move into the decommissioning process in the 4th quarter of 2014. this decision was based on the economics of the point. not operational performance not litigation risk. nor political pressure simply put the plant

costs exceed the plant revenue in this asset is not financially viable for those of us and. it's not good news it's a very sad day. it's sad because we're worried about what's going to have more friends neighbors for the folks who have to move it's going to be painful see them go nuclear plants around the country are under the warmest financial pressures right now they're getting old and everybody knows it costs more to maintain an old car than a dozen new car the same is true for a nuclear plant. all of them are going to require modifications from lessons learned after fukushima daiichi. sankyo is going to need about $250000000.00 of repair and replacement over the next 2 or 3 years to keep running and entergy didn't want to spend that money. entergy new that from entourage were

not going to allow this plant top arrayed unless it was in top notch condition. and they couldn't afford it so they pulled the plug on for mine yankee for economics but it was economics under the scrutiny of a smart electorate who had kept themselves in form for the last 10 years. the closing of vermont yankee is a victory for democracy. entergy would continue to operate if it wasn't for all the hard work all these people did to make this happen is a win for david over. people power works we as citizens have the ability to effect change. what gives me hope in all of this is that. in some little way our

actions are going to inspire others. i wish my grandmother for her like you say your grandmother did. and you know we have a victory for egging men. i feel fortunate to be alive and in relatively good health and able to. struggle. you can do what. you need kevin unity to do this sound then you're going to support one another and both

that i had to gather. there's no getting around the fact that the site we're vermont yankee exists on the banks of the connecticut river will remain as a high level nuclear radioactive waste dump endangering people for miles and miles and miles and miles around. toxic legacy and what has been created is not going to disappear and it will affect future generations for a time. this

is a technology that's fundamentally flawed i don't believe we should build a new nuclear power plant ever again and i think we should in an orderly manner shut down every nuclear power plant we've got. beginning with all of these mark one designs that are identical to vermont yankee and identical the fukushima daichi.

think gradually over the next 10 years do it the germans are doing and shut this technology down to earth. guy.

taste awful like absolutely awful 1st game code then a 2nd wave the 3rd is coming now the virus is mutating i walked 2 blocks away from the apartment and i would get confused as to holly gets not. meanwhile patients who've recovered from covert started to report some unusual aftereffects the symptoms were different but. my hearing has been ok i think. that's one of those things where it's like research is all over the world are trying to determine the many aches pains and other problems and then turn it all into numbers showing my hair. you appear to be 1113 there this is throughout the day my hair just fell out various sources reports that kobe didn't just leave

a 35 percent of recovered potions. so you don't pull the bullshit cause the push. just there have been many complaints of feral vision loss joint pain and fatigue in the us these patients are referred to as post coded long haul as i talked to multiple doctors in my doctor and they said have a feeling that you're going to have a hard time in recovery you're going to be one of those people that they consider a long haul and. i wouldn't quit cd they supported sort of the banning of trying per se i think long before we reach this point there should have been enough and there should have been a set of guidelines and rules. technology platform followed around specific kinds of cheeses by which people might be maybe even not the platforms into steps

they're on the way to their. you are stealing information that is going viral that is obviously false and or heat for. by these algorithms that are influencing visibility of content that is he for and viral industry says we need to intervene. right now there are. people who are overweight or obese it's profitable to self. and sugary and salty and addictive it's not at the individual level it's not individual wealth power and if we go on believing that would never change this obesity epidemic that industry has been influencing very deeply the medical and scientific establishment. so what's driving

the obesity epidemic it's corporate profit. in the stories that shaped the week 1st ration months in countries that all did for the cold would fall user gelb with supply problems hitting europe and north america some people in the us are helping to travel to neighboring states just to get an articulated. feed while the must vaccination campaign kicks off in russia with its sputnik the job as an increasing number of other countries also choose to use it or a known serbian film director who gave us his take on the facts. of the libya.
