Japan Readying to Release Highly Radioactive Water from Fukushima Plant Into Ocean
Almost 85 percent of the water is said to contain dangerously high levels of radioactive materials. According to the plant's operator Tokyo Electric Power Corporation,… about 161-thousand tons of the treated water is 10 to 100 times over the limit for release into the environment,… and another 65-thousand tons is up to 20-thousand times the limit.
South Korea expressed its concerns over Japan's decision last week. "The ocean is not the property of one country, but a shared resource of the world. Releasing contaminated water into the sea is likely to have a significant impact on the marine environment and the safety of marine products."
