Burning debris might be understandable, but it's questionable to burn radioactive debris
It might be inevitable to burn them in or the site nearby, and it might be understandable to burn them in a coast Tsunami hit.
As a matter of fact, at the site 1000 tonnes of debris a day is now being burnt.
Or in an already radioactively affected area, as in Tokyo where 100 tonnes is being burnt a day now
But it is out of mind to burn them in non contaminated areas as my hometown Kokura
We shall be exposed by unnecessary dose of radiation
This is a crime against humanity
80 tonnes were already burnt on 24th and 25th, May
If permitted, 39,500 tonnes of radioactive debris will arrive at the port of Kokura via tanker..
About 2 million people live in the city
Kokura is more than 1000 kilometres away from Fukushima and it is not contaminated by radiation
Japanese government is trying to create a hot spot of radiation other than east Japan
Other than the public opinion of the universe, nothing can change
Why has Kokura been chosen for this task? Does it have some unique facilities not available in Fukushima prefecture... or were all such facilities destroyed in the tsunami?
ReplyDeleteBecause they want to spread radiation contamination to the Western part of Japan where no damage is made.
ReplyDeleteEast Japan including Tokyo is now under severe radiation contamination, so some people there start considering emigration to the west Japan.
Spreading radioactive waste to the west would prevent such moves as exodus from Tokyo.
All people in Japan now prefer buying foods produced in non contaminated areas or evade buying foods produced in contaminated areas.
They speculate people would start buying foods indiscriminately by spreading radioactive waste to the west.
It seems they chose economic stability rather than human health.
About one-third of Japan is heavily contaminated by radiation, but Kokura was completely radiation free.
Probably some surely know burning radioactive debris is one of the most effective ways to spread contamination.
By burning 80 tonnes on 24th and 25th of May, radiation index rises from 0.05 to 0.19 micro sievert per hour.
They dispatched riot police from Tokyo for preparation against anticipated street protest in coming months. Two citizen activists were detained in a small collision on 24th.
In Tsunami affected area over 20 million tonnes of debris was left. Now 7 makeshift incinerators were built there, and 1000 tonnes a day are being burnt every day. By this December total 31 makeshift incinerators will be built and 5000 tonnes a day will be burnt in 24/365.
They are and will be built in Tsunami affected area, so no residents there.
They use in Kokura incinerators for general garbage for burning this radioactive debris. They put one radioactive debris out of 10 general garbage each time, making less than 330 becquerel ashes and reclaim nearby sea.
Kokura was chosen because it is located at the centre of non contaminated area from effective spread point of view, and it has been a government designated city since 1963 where lots of financial aid has been made from government, so it can be relatively easy to reflect government's intention rather than residents there.
Many other local authorities refused to accept any radioactive debris and Kokura was the first to burn 80 tonnes experimentally. If it accepted 39,500 tonnes, non contaminated areas must be polluted more or less.
Some people say our load is light in comparison to the agony of the people in East Japan, but I think it's not a matter of degree we share, but a matter of life and death not merely for Westerners but for all Japan people.
Because they lose the hideaways, safe foods, air, and water for ever.
