Coal mining, burning, and waste disposal on any given year results in more environmental damage and human health costs than dozens of Fukushima's.
All of which is recoverable... it won't take thousands of years for the environment to bioremediate those substances because the biosphere has natural carbon sequestration ability. Radiation is a whole different story.
I'm not saying fossil fuels are a good thing though. We need to stop using them.
