I still think it is shameful in this day in age that we as a society do not have some sort of international nuclear disaster team that can respond to help when things like this happen. Its painfully obvious to me that an engineering disaster of this scope & nature is no easy task, and considering the effects of such a failure it should not be left up to some private company to deal with fallout that has the potential to harm not only local human life, but the worlds eco system.

Private companies no matter what country are only worried about one thing, and that is making money. They will always take shortcuts to save a few bucks, and sacrifice customer satisfaction and human life to please its stock holders. How can any nation allow a nuclear disaster be handled in house by private enterprize?

I just heard a report on ABC news that Germany has already shut down eight of its reactor plants on its way to a complete nuke shutdown, and Switzerland just anounced that it will phase out all of its nuke plants by 2034, and become nuke free. This incedent has really shown the world just how bad things can get if things go wrong. The risk of our extinction is not worth the risk of using nuclear power, and some have realized this and begun to make changes in a more positive direction. I am sure that using nuclear energey will not be desolved any time soon, but I believe that it is time to realize that it is time to start shifting to another source of power worldwide.
