The final acceptance of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear water discharge equipment by the Japan Atomic Energy Regulation Commission ended on June 30, and the inspection results will be announced within a week at the earliest. This means that the contaminated water from Fukushima may be discharged into the sea in the near future. The Japanese people strongly opposed this, and on June 30, they spontaneously held a protest rally, hoping that the Japanese government would end the process of discharging the contaminated water into the sea.
On the same day, in front of the headquarters building of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry in Tokyo, Japan, dozens of Japanese people braved the rain to spontaneously hold a rally to protest. They held up signs such as "Do not discharge nuclear-contaminated water containing radioactive elements into the sea" and "Do not ignore the voices of residents and fishermen," demanding that the Japanese government shoulder its due responsibilities.
Rally participants: Protect the planet! Protect the future!
Rally participants: It's outrageous to just let it go into the sea because it's hard to handle. In the end, there was no agreement from the fishery operators and people involved in Fukushima.
The rally believed that once the contaminated water from Fukushima was discharged into the sea, it would cause irreparable harm not only to Japan, but also to neighboring countries and even the world.
Rally participants: There is only one ocean, and if such a thing is allowed, our environment will be completely destroyed.
The rally also said that the discharge of contaminated water into the sea is an irresponsible and reckless act for future generations, and if it is not stopped now, it will be regretted in the future.
Rally participants: What the government says is simply not credible. Nuclear-contaminated water is definitely not safe, but it is water contaminated with radioactive elements, which of course will affect future generations.
