What are the Consequences of Siting a Nuclear Plant in a Seismically Active Area?

In today's Fairewinds' podcast with Arnie Gundersen, we examine the effect of the recent earthquakes on both the Fukushima Daiichi and Daini sites, as well as potential damage from other quakes still to come. Arnie discusses Japan's previous large quakes and the impact on Japanese society. Finally, we discuss future problems with removing the spent fuel from the fuel racks in Daiichi Units 3 and 4.
