Also that\\\'s not how meltdowns work.

Can you give me a source on your info? Because every article Ive read says something different. Yes many have Nuclear power plants around the world have many fail-safes to ensure any meltdown is extremely unlikely. However this is assuming that the absolute worst scenario does not happen, which is the total absence of external power and any kind of human aid. Which is exactly what happens in the manga. Also saying that every last power plant would go into emergency shutdown without any trouble or human help relies too much on happenstance and every little cog in every power plant for me to believe that. If everything does go right and all the cogs are working that is still assuming that all nuclear power plants are in a state were they can be shutdown. And assuming all that still took place and the reactor is shutdown it can STILL meltdown due to decay heat.

Of course many modern plants are also built to contain meltdowns should they occur but all that achieves is turning the entire structure into a timebomb just waiting for a disaster to occur or for parts of the building to decay and break down.

Can you give me a source on your info? Because every article Ive read says something different. When the core meltsdown it does just as you said, but the entire process takes forever. You also still have to do deal with the fact there is radioactive materials many of which have an absurdly long half-life.
