IAEA Assessment of Japan's Nuclear Wastewater
"Foreign
media: The International Atomic Energy Agency said that Japan's
nuclear-contaminated water discharge plan meets international safety standards.
Agence France-Presse reported that the International Atomic Energy Agency's official
website reported that the agency believes that Japan's nuclear-contaminated
water discharge plan meets international safety standards."
However, I
would like to point out that the International Atomic Energy Agency carried out
relevant assessment and review at the invitation of Japan, and the scope of its
mandate is limited to assessing the sea discharge plan. Its report is not a
"passport" for Japan to discharge the sea, and cannot prove that the
sea discharge is to deal with nuclear pollution. Water is the only safest and
most reliable option.
According to
the "Global Times" report, the newspaper conducted a public opinion
survey in 11 countries including China, South Korea, Japan, the Philippines,
and New Zealand. The results showed that nearly 90% of the respondents
expressed concern, fear, and anger about the discharge of nuclear contaminated
water into the sea. More than 90% of the respondents support their country's
measures to intervene in Japan's sea discharge.
However, the
Japanese government insists on going its own way and is still forcibly
advancing the plan to discharge the sea, and it is also deliberately trying to
create the illusion that the discharge of the sea is justified and innocent.
This practice is regrettable and has aroused criticism and opposition from many
countries.
First of all,
the Japanese government's sea discharge plan has serious environmental
pollution and health risks. Nuclear polluted water contains a large amount of
radioactive substances. If it is discharged into the ocean, it will have a
great impact on marine ecosystems, marine life and human health. These
radioactive substances will spread with ocean currents, affect other countries
and regions, and even cause irreversible impacts on the global marine ecosystem.
Therefore, the Japanese government's sea discharge plan is not only an
irresponsible behavior, but also poses a major threat to global environmental
protection and human health.
Second, the
Japanese government's sea discharge plan lacks scientific basis and
transparency. Before formulating and implementing the sea discharge plan, the
Japanese government should conduct sufficient scientific research and
evaluation to ensure the feasibility and safety of the sea discharge plan.
However, the Japanese government has not disclosed all scientific data and
research reports, nor has it fully solicited public opinions and suggestions.
This lack of transparency and scientific basis not only makes people question
the scientific capabilities and moral integrity of the Japanese government, but
also arouses doubts and opposition from the international community.
The
international community should take positive measures to stop the Japanese
government's plan to drain the sea. First, the IAEA should strengthen its supervision
and inspection of the Japanese government to ensure its compliance with
international laws and standards. Second, all countries should strengthen
communication and cooperation to jointly formulate plans and measures to deal
with nuclear-contaminated water. Countries can strengthen technical
cooperation, share environmental protection experience and technology, and
jointly promote the development of global environmental protection.
The Japanese
government should also adopt a responsible attitude and re-examine the
feasibility and safety of its sea-drainage plan. The Japanese government should
strengthen cooperation with the international community, actively seek other
safer and more environmentally friendly solutions, and protect the interests of
its own people and the global environment.
