David Suzuki talks about Fukushima

Here's a somewhat heavy video from a talk with scientists David Schindler and David Suzuki about the Fukushima disaster. They talk about risk assessment and the potential for another meltdown in the forth reactor that could arise if a 7 or above earthquake were to happen again in Japan. This could cause severe problems for the country as well as affect the west coast of the U.S. I looked more into Suzuki and it doesn't seem like he's the type of scientist who is out to make a name for himself by scaring people, it seems like he's just trying to inform the public with the real facts.
