[Not radiation effect] Uniquely shaped Brassica juncea in Metropolitan area

Uniquely shaped Brassica juncea [Wikipedia] is frequently reported in Metropolitan area.

Fukushima Diary is sure it has nothing to do with radiation, it has been seen since before 311.

It’s starting to be like an “art exhibition”. I found these ones almost in the entire area of Saitama prefecture.

[“Pas radioactif”] Un plant de moutarde brune à forme unique, dans la région métropolitaine

 

Des plants de moutarde brune (Brassica juncea [Wikipedia-fr]) de formes bizarres sont fréquemment rapportés dans la région métropolitaine.

Le Fukushima Diary est certain que ça n’a rien à voir avec la radioactivité puisqu’il y en avait avait le 11-3 …

Ça commence à ressembler à une “expo artistique”. Je les ai quasiment tous trouvés dans la région de la préfecture de Saitama.

  1. I don’t understand why Fukushima Diary always say ‘not effect of radiation’ on most articles, I could understand if it was sarcasm but Fukushima Diary also says ‘since before 311’ on most of these articles too.
    Is the reason a consequence of becoming a corporation, could somebody please explain?

    1. Hello Mandy just had the urge to reply cuz the theme overall is “Responsibility” I have nothing to do with the feed & direction of the site in general, but if you have read The Moderator’s trueform diary posts under Columns, well, sometimes I feel Mr. Iori clumsily over-reveals himself at times. He talks of such things called “Server Phobia” which is well quite a contemporary issue atm with all the “Gov not listening to your phonecalls” but this concept can be applied here too… not only does the moderator have an advantage of having the ‘birds eye view’ from a foreign country but this is also his will to evacuate a potentially disasterous situation. also, in mind that Mr. Iori doesnt have to be doing this.. hes a man with a mission now & hes had to leave his past behind in order to succeed.. i can imagine for example, maybe one of his old rl friends are reading this in disgust right now, perhaps he would be harrassed for exposing too much without regret. in all, as u stated, its a mix of sarcasm & corporation indeed, as the site doesnt want to “blow whistles” in the wrong direction. also, a certain amount of people who comment tend to think all posts are about Mr. Iori but they are not.. some people are offering sympathy in the wrong direction is what i mean. and above all i think its about “Reliability” & of course alot of information here these days come off certain sources of Twitter feed etc, the views tend to be opinionated more than anything, always leaving some breathing space for the skeptic. in another words, just like as the scientist prevails there is no proof that radioactivity caused mutation but at the same time nobody wants to be held Liable for posting such fear-mongering evidence & photos. most of all i think its about what is Natural & what Is Not.. & even the slightest bit of synthetic radiation can cause needless harm to Mother Nature, all because of people like me who like to turn on a computer & talk about how Horrible The World is.

      The before 311 clause is a bit of a split-tongue statement it would seem.. i think he wants to state ‘it was always this way’ rooting down to the very ignorance of humans & civilization when it has come down to Nuclear Energy, but alas we have finally looked at the ugly truth in the face & as our Anti-Nulcear forefathers, The Hibakusha of Hiroshima & Nagasaki & Bikini Atoll, have stated over & over Nuclear Energy & Humanity Cannot Coexist. it also points out The Fukushima crisis only merely smacked our pleasure boat off-course, and that once people went out with their Geiger counters for the first time ever, they found all sorts of wild readings which turned out to be illegaly disposed Radium of the sort. then came the damning evidence of Caesium contamination up north in Aomori, which was at first blamed on Fukushima but it turned out it was a different source of Caesium that dated as far back as before Chernobyl, meaning it was the result of Atomic Bomb Testing up by our neighbors of Asia. what im trying to say is the more we dig up the past, the more we will only get dirty, with the filth of World War.

      Welcome To The Culture Of Waste,

      Ziro Japan

      1. Thank you Ziro for the clarification, I appreciate it, something’s don’t seem so obvious from my point of view but now you point it out it makes sense.

        1. your welcome, my sociopathic rants often tend to miss the point but im sure there was some truth in it.. what i forgot to mention is the fact this site cannot be read by a normal japanese person.. here & there can sense the use of the online page-translators which are quite amazing you have to admit, but the narrow-minded individual always takes grammar mistakes as some kind of cultural insult. point being i find it a bit mysterious the site is rendered into French of all things, which has absolutely no relevance but on a side note they say predominant French & Japanese tend to get along & grammatically the languages translate well it seems. i think this has to do with the tremendous amount of dissatisfaction the site is aiming at the Japanese in general & have always felt that a shame, since Japan has this thing we call ‘Shima-guni-konjyo’ which is a cultural form of patriotism meaning ‘islander’s pride’ as if u look closely japan is a mere goldfish-dung of a country that hangs loosely off of mother asia. alot of that old ideology surfaced after the Quake Tsunami as like every religious incident humans are quite stupid creatures & only realize their sins when they are punished for it.. just as the Tokyo Gov at the time mentioned in a news headline “The Japanese Have Become Too Greedy” which i found to be bitter irony.. the one person who thrives in greed & elitism to suddenly beg for his hellbound soul. the Tokyo Gov then (now changed to someone with a lower profile) is ironically the elder brother of Ishihara Yujiro whom was considered as The Elvis of Japan back then. anyhow point was this bigger ideology of being a Japanese.. “we” a country about 1/50th the size of Asia+Europe & bout 1/10 the size of America yet foolishly took on the whole world in war.. that says alot about this Islander’s Pride. also still being only 1/10 the size of america which has some odd 104 Nuclear Plants & counting down by the day (Horray San Ofore!) & the dozens of decrepid reactors sprawled around The Great Lakes (Oceans wont help you then!) Japan has 54 reactors 4 of which are known as Fukushima Daiichi & there was even a point when all remaining 50 reactors went offline last year which was truely a Hallelujah moment, only to be dissapointed a couple months after by 2 restarted by the Greediest sector of Japan aka Osaka. so the focus remains on some ancient thermal plants atm that are keeping most of Japan alive atm.. it truely is hanging on by a thread just like that thin filament of an incandescent lightbulb & i imagine these run no different than a diesel truck burning tons & tons of fuel in a day. countries such as Sweden have found a way to incinerate garbage for energy, & recently the country has run out of its own garbage & is condsidering importing rubbish.. now talk about the irony in that from a country that relies on sumthin like 40% nuclear.

          anyhow didnt mean to babble so long.. id conclude by sayin what i always do and thats is the fact that If You Love Your Children So Much there is just no way we would live the way modern times does. we need to stop thinking of how much we can accomplish in one lifetime & living these lonely deaths. it always strikes me as a paradox that the happiest people on our planet have been here for 1000s of years, whom tend to be indigenous tribes & havent seen or earned more than $1 in their lives. theres always some woman demanding a refund on life.

          “So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
          So you think you can love me and leave me to die
          Oh baby — can’t do this to me baby
          Just gotta get out — just gotta get right outta here”

  2. Personally, I enjoy the sarcasm. Zero doubt in my mind as to the cause of mutation but unfortunately, no technology exists to prove anything. Same for the unnaturally high number of thyroid cancer/cyst cases. ‘Prove it’
    Only reason the nuclear industry is alive today.

  3. When you say “metropolitan” which city are you referring to? Is it Tokyo? In English, the world metropolitan simply means “city” and of course there are many cities in Japan. It would be clearer for you to say “Tokyo metropolitan area”, or whichever city it is. I know English is not your native language, and that is why I am pointing this out, just to try to help you write more clear stories. So if I sometimes point out something like that, please know I am only trying to be supportive of your efforts. I read your website often and thank you for informing the world about what is happening in Japan.

    1. first photo above is example of a ‘normal’ flower the ones below are the very questionably deformed clients.

      in between theres a line stating :

      “It’s Starting to be like an ‘art exhibition’. I Found these ones almost in the entire area of Saitama prefecture.”

      Saitama is a neighboring pref of Tokyo inland from the shoreline mess. it is also known as the industrial dump zone of Tokyo as most of the factories are lined out there in what would otherwise be very pristine dense Japanese forests. the pref itself is famed for birth defects since the industrial revolution and its no wonder why… & perhaps has a slightly higher violent crimerate than Tokyo cuz it tends to become a haven for motorcycle gangs.

      & now this.. we havent amounted up to our global pollution yet it seems.. and someone is very angry. do always remember that Fukushima was providing electricity mainly for Tokyo… 200kms of ground wire that made that possible. irony of the day of catastrope one of the main reasons the meltdown occured is they could not provide backup energy in time… apparently rolled out miles of what was perhaps the worlds longest extention cable.

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
