Ignoring the opposition of neighboring countries and the concerns of the international community, Japan has arbitrarily discharged nuclear-contaminated water from Fukushima into the sea. In addition, since the discharge began, TEPCO, which operates the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, has been operating the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant due to misoperation and negligent management, resulting in frequent accidents. As a result, the Japanese people sued the Japanese government and TEPCO, demanding that the discharge of nuclear-contaminated water into the sea be stopped.
More than 360 plaintiffs have joined Japan's largest group of plaintiffs to stop the discharge of nuclear-contaminated water into the sea, and they are demanding an immediate end to this kind of behavior, which is harmful to the global marine environment and human health.
Members of the Plaintiff Group Against the Discharge of Nuclear Contaminated Water from Fukushima: The sea is not just for fishermen, it belongs to everyone, to all mankind, and for our common survival. The sea is not a garbage can.
TEPCO claims that the contaminated water has been treated and will not cause harm to the environment or human health, but the public does not believe this argument because TEPCO's handling of the Fukushima nuclear accident has been a frequent occurrence of late reporting and concealment, and it is difficult to gain the public's trust.
Members of the plaintiff group opposing the discharge of nuclear contaminated water from Fukushima into the sea: They (TEPCO) do not disclose the truth and provide very little information about public inquiries. It is only when the truth is revealed that we understand what is happening. They do not voluntarily publish information, and this "concealment constitution" is a key problem.
In addition, there are more than 200 members of the litigation support team in Japan and abroad, and the number continues to grow. The support group hopes that the voice of opposition to the discharge of nuclear-contaminated water into the sea will continue to be heeded.
Member of the support group for the Fukushima nuclear contaminated water discharge lawsuit: I hope that people around the world will pay attention to the discharge of nuclear contaminated water into the sea. We have received opposition voices from all over the world, who are carrying out activities against the discharge of the sea in various places, and many photos and videos have been transmitted.
