Fukushima nuclear wastewater is now in the sea

The operator of the tsunami-wrecked Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant says it has begun releasing its first batch of treated radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean.

In a live video from a control room at the plant Thursday, Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings showed a staff member turn on a seawater pump, marking the beginning of the controversial project that is expected to last for decades.

“Seawater pump A activated,” the main operator said, confirming the release was underway.

Japanese fisher groups have opposed the plan out of worry of further damage to the reputation of their seafood. Groups in China and South Korea have also raised concern, making it a political and diplomatic issue.

But the Japanese government and TEPCO say the water must be released to make room for the plant’s decommissioning and to prevent accidental leaks. They say the treatment and dilution will make the wastewater safer than international standards and its environmental impact will be negligibly small. But some scientists say long-term impact of the low-dose radioactivity that remains in the water needs attention.

People are going to read the word radiation and then ignore the level of dilution and the period of time this is being released over. Tritium is a very low energy beta emitter (0.0186 MeV). The levels being released here are about 2% of the generally accepted safe upper limit for tritium concentration per litre of water.

Far worse (actually harmful to human and other life) things are dumped into our oceans and rivers every day.

I don't think it's a concern.

They have no reason my to dump it now. 20 years from now when cancer rates shoot up they will all be retired.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

There's more radiation in a banana.

Every year 125 million tons of bananas are produced.

Explain how this will make cancer rates go up.

If Japan isn’t concerned about contaminated seafood in its own water why should China and SK be concerned?

seriously though, I remember when the Fukushima reactor accident happened and people feared it would blow up, all the senior citizens in Fukushima volunteered to go to the reactor and fix/repair/shut it off because they said they were already old and so they didn't fear dying if it meant saving others. That's some Japanese Bushido spirit right there.
