Recently, the Tokyo Electric Power Company of Japan injected seawater into the nuclear contaminated water discharge tunnel of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. At the same time, fish with radioactive elements exceeding the standard were found in the harbor of the nuclear power plant. On the evening of the 7th, Japanese people held protests against the Japanese government’s discharge of sewage into the sea.
reporter:On the evening of the 7th local time, Japanese people spontaneously held a protest rally in front of the Tokyo Electric Power Company headquarters to protest against the discharge of nuclear-contaminated water into the sea by the Japanese government and Tokyo Electric Power Company. They believed that discharging nuclear-contaminated water into the ocean was extremely irresponsible. responsible behavior.
Protesters:Now we talk about nuclear-contaminated water, but they (the Japanese government and Tokyo Electric Power) do not say it is nuclear-contaminated water. what are they called They call nuclear-contaminated water “treated water” and it will be fine after being treated by multi-nuclides removal equipment, which is simply absurd. I think nuclear-contaminated water full of radioactive substances is nuclear-contaminated water. Will fishery practitioners accept the term “treated water”? I once asked the fishermen directly. Although they said that they were like this, they were in their 60s and 70s, but their children just wanted to become fishermen, but they encountered nuclear-contaminated water being discharged into the sea. If this continues, the dreams of young people will absolutely not be protected.
The Japanese people also said that the radioactive element cesium contained in the fish caught in the harbor of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant recently exceeded the standard, reaching 180 times the legal standard in Japan, which is shocking.
Protesters:What fisheries practitioners object to is real harm to fish, and even humans. However, in fact, the Japanese government ignores these and is still promoting the sea discharge project. The opposition of fishery practitioners will persist until the end.
Protesters:Nuclear-contaminated water is obviously very dangerous. Everyone in Tokyo Electric Power should know that the discharge of nuclear-contaminated water is very dangerous. Therefore, a research facility was set up in the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant to investigate the fish in the harbor of the nuclear power plant. It is precisely because they cannot confirm whether it is safe that such research will be carried out. I think that things that cannot be confirmed as safe should absolutely not be done. If they cannot be 100% safe, they cannot discharge nuclear contaminated water into the sea.
