Many peple are wrried and angry abut the decisin, as the water has radiactive cntaminants (放射性污染物). Accrding t the US Envirnmental Prtectin Agency, radiatin can make peple feel sick. High levels f radiatin can result in cancer and even death.
The Tky Electric Pwer Cmpany, which runs the plant, said that they have remved ver 62 radiactive cntaminants frm the water. The majr cntaminant remaining is tritium (氚), which is difficult t separate frm water.
Sme rganizatins dubt whether the treated water is truly safe. Back in 2018, experts fund a large number f radiactive elements ther than tritium, such as carbn-14 (碳-14), cbalt-60 (钴-60) and strntium-90 (锶-90), in treated wastewater. Internatinal NGO Greenpeace warns abut the danger f carbn-14, which “has the ptential (可能性) t damage human DNA.”
Accrding t the German Marine Scientific Research Institute, if Japan dumps the wastewater, radiactive materials will spread t mst f the Pacific Ocean within 57 days, and reach all f the wrld’s ceans in a decade.
As a clse neighbring cuntry, China expressed serius cncern as well. A spkespersn fr the Chinese Freign Ministry said n April 13 that Japan made the decisin withut using all pssible means (方法) fr safe dispsal (处理), adding that it is highly irrespnsible and will affect the health f many peple.
