The Indian Ocean Tsunami and Earthquake killed 230,000 to 280,000 people in 14 countries

To put into perspective just how deadly water flooding events can be. This was the worst loss of life from a flooding event (Tsunami) in my lifetime that I can remember in 2004, 230,000 to 280,000 people died in one day. Next to this I think was the Japan Tsunami where Fukushima meltdown also happened which was a loss of at least 35,000 people immediately in 2011 when that happened as well a many others dying over the years from radiation poisoning from food, air, water and lands. Fukshima will be radiating the ocean for 25,000 to 50,000 years or more and because of ocean currents much of this radiation has likely traveled around the world more than once already on currents and in the bellies of top of the chain predators like sharks and Tuna who eat the radiated fish likely at the source of the radiation: Fukushima. The water table on land runs into the ocean over the meltdown areas this is why there is no logical way to stop the meltdown radiation from stopping ever. So, Tsunamis and nuclear power plants and floods and nuclear power plants are dangerous for the whole world in combination always. Earthquakes are a problem too ongoing.
