Breaking News: All Japanese for Kamikaze

Japanese radiation advisory board is planning to raise the safety limit from 1 mSv/y to 20 mSv/y.

This includes both of external exposure and internal exposure.

Since Fukushima disaster, all the food and soil have been contaminated.

Not to let people evacuate from Japan, and to save domestic companies, Japanese government has raised the “safety” limit of food with no scientific basis.

Now to match all the “safety” limits of food, water, air, etc, Japanese government is required to raise the total dose limit per year as soon as possible.

Original 1 mSv/y is determined by WHO.

20 mSv/y is the safety limit of average nuclear workers in USA.

Though there is an issue of basic human rights, nuclear plant workers are paid and they accept the limit on their own choice.

However, Japanese people will be forced to be exposed to 20 mSv/y, including infants and children.

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.
