Fukushima reactor No. 4 vulnerable to catastrophic collapse; could unleash 85 times Cesium-137 radiation of Chernobyl; human civilization on the brink
:
Over a year on from the initial incident. Much appears, still unknown ?.
Can the theories, predict accurately, all the possible outcomes ?.

Sustainability
As a result of the events on and after March 11th 2011 at Fukushima, in Japan. The question needs to be asked, about on what scale electricity generation should be dependant on Nuclear energy ?.
As the events have shown uncertainty can produce a set of problems which are as intractable as practical problems !. So perhaps dependency should be shared across a range of sources, so that the failure of one source, due to whatever means or reason, does not substantial impact on life or the quality of life, and that as far as possible, things proceed on a sustainable bias !
In the UK, Nuclear has always been covered by certain veils of secrecy !. At least that is how it appears to anyone more than a casual observer !. First there was the Military Veil, then there was the Commercial sensitivity veil !. In more recent time a set of veils relating to possible terrorism, and other possible misuses !.
A paradox is that the Nuclear industry appears to have become “a must have in Nation Sovereignty stakes”, Much like Commercial Airlines did, some years ago, when Flying the National Flag became popular !.
The big paradox, is that these veils, along with the increasing prominence of nuclear power, can contribute to safety vulnerabilities !. In particular to the safety vulnerabilities of the general public !
The Commercial Development of Nuclear Power has lead to a proliferation of nuclear sites, and this may have lead to confusion, about the risks involved !. Especially in regards to the tipping points !. At the extreme end, there is the potential for a Nuclear explosion !. Though the normal threat is in the release, of radioactive contamination , especially as a result of a conventional explosion !.. The precautions in relation to these nuclear sites appear to assume that any significant contamination can be contained within the outer boundaries of the site !. There appears to be little active precautions available, in the event of a significant release of contaminants beyond the site !. Time and distance, being key factors, in Nuclear Protection, the provisions when assessed, against the scale of the risks, appear wholly inadequate !.
The normal threat appears to be towards health and environment, with a spin off in relation to potential costs and economic downturn !. Fortunately there appears to be colloquial evidence that Radiation spread by conventional means, rather than as a result of something more than a nuclear energy excursion, has a weaker impact !.
