Japan said on Tuesday it will start releasing more than 1 million metric tonnes of treated radioactive water from the wrecked Fukushima nuclear power plant on Aug. 24, putting into motion a plan that has drawn strong criticism from China.
yeah everybody just ignore the actual important bit of information:
That water will contain about 190 becquerels of tritium per litre, below the World Health Organisation drinking water limit of 10,000 becquerels per litre, according to Tepco. A becquerel is a unit of radioactivity.
china and south korea beeing shocked is a political and cultural thing..because its always cool bashing thr neighbor to feel better about your self.
I'm no expert nor do i aprove atomic waste dumping in the ocean. just trying to bring up a.talking point here.
peace and love
While the reported tritium levels may be below the World Health Organisation's drinking water limit, it's important to note that tritium's potential risks depend on various factors such as the quantity released, dilution rates in the ocean, and potential bioaccumulation in the aquatic ecosystem.
