a race, no creative women, and i decided to start a band with a special touch and the young spirit trailblazing performance credit was traditional music in the seminary style algae 01 celebration. we mean, there's been traditional irish music to new audiences. and how do we want to project to reach the well, no, certainly syria sisters in some, syria and the rook on tuesday around japan begins releasing tracy radioactive was that from the focus of a pop up, new engineer kit watchdog and says it's safe. but china disagrees, the regional states and public opinion divide. so all the fans justified. a lot of the scientists say, this is inside story. the

other welcome to the program on the clock, these phenomena in 2011 that swamped the fukushima pop pond to japan. that to the world with nuclear accidents, since you know about 25 years before the meltdown of its reactors have left a legacy of waste, including radioactive water. so much in fact that there's not enough space to store it. japan says it's planned to treat and discharge the water into the sea has been approved as safe by the us nuclear watchdog, the international atomic energy agency o i a e a. if i continue to i ensure i'd safety the way we hope to ensure b. e u i a is continue the involve uh the these just a thought that we are fed to my house, full embalming was never bought. not to the pub, like

a convinced hold his name. no. as for the treated, walter cocoa, electric power company already talks about tritium, but i believe there are other radio new types that remaining in the water in those tanks. does this mean it still sites in a way that everyone believes it to be? i find that questionable most of all are many me and i see on i cause the release was covered by many media reports. business was normal until about 1 pm draft to that my impression was that we had fewer customers at the restaurants. a china a strongly opposes the radioactive both release and has roughly imposed a blanket band on japanese seafood impulse who actually showed you transferred from china and other stakeholders have repeatedly pointed out what's the just the nuclear contaminated water is safe, then there is no need to discharge it into the sea, and if it is not safe, it should not be discharged. so where is all this happening? well, the problem lies here on the eastern side of japan facing the pacific ocean, nearby and south korea. public opinion is also split for the government has

accepted the discharge, but north korea has reacted without res. describe yet as an unforgiving, full crime against humanity. as we said, china replaces the plan while the pacific islands, while the divided 2 according to the 18 nation pacific islands for him. so it was the plan was it needed around $1300000.00 tons of radioactive water stored at the site in tanks. and that's his biggest move in 500 and then pick sized swimming pools. but it's not room for anymore. there's still large amounts of radioactive material left from the disaster. and we want to, it must be used to cool this to prevent another, usually a meltdown. and this cooling process produces yet more radioactive water, but they've run out of space. so the solution is a gradual release of the plants waste water, which is expected to take at least 30 is one of the main concerns in both try to radioactive form of hydrogen that cannot be removed or filtered out of water. so

instead japanese scientist a di lucy, it try to him is found in nuclear plants worldwide. it'll say, because naturally, for example, when hydrogen reacts with sunlight to reduce minute quantities at low amounts, it's considered homeless and so on to say it's radiation is too weak to penetrate to human skin. the quantity of tried to him in the was it being discharged. fukushima is below the i a, a safety levels. but if ingested above these limits, people are risk developing cancer. critics have developed a discharge. more studies are needed on how it could impact marine life. and humans so let's bring in all 3 guys from tokyo told me he co, tiny, good. see he's professor at the university of google and former advisor to the constitution to every, from oslo after the land. she's director for emergency preparedness. at the norwegian radiation the nuclear safety author already also a nuclear chemist and from a call 6 ago is the vice president of the center for china and globalization of

china unless very well welcome to all of you, victor. i'd like to start with you. so japan says of water is safe, the majority of the scientists say that water is safe viewing nuclear watchdog say the water is safe. what's the problem? i thank you very much. i think the japanese government just committed an act of either responsibility. they full of public opinion and not only in japan but in the world because they say i a yeah. has approved for japanese discharge plan. the reality is the director general of i a e a resume, please say no. i yeah. and never has approved it. i you just insisted that whatever the japanese couple is, do we need to be in strict up. uh, okay. uh, in applied with the strict rules of the i a yeah, whatever i yeah is talking about this is not the grandkids,

but i see on the approval to of the japanese government district now also whatever the japanese government is doing is not a false my sure the had 11 or 12 years to figure out what to do. talk to electric, i made a promise to the residue. ready in that particular region that they will never dump water into the whole ship because the japanese people dependents on the ocean of thousands of years. and many families is actually had depended on the ownership and the fishery for generations after generations. and japan never consulted with other countries, for example, and they claim it is safe spot. mankind has never experience such a large scale, deliberate dumping or waste water. the water is not as clean the water. the water was recycled through the hole and the roll. inside the nuclear reactor and okay, it does not just contribute one particular element. it contains

a move in several ballads of radioactive moments we're going to get, i'm told of the actor, the responsibility. okay, let's get the view from tech. you told me he could kind of good, she so respond to that if you would, the i a has not fully approved. it is because view the japanese government has renee doing a promise. in the early part of july, the international atomic energy agency issued a comprehensive report that was an endorsement of the plan of the japanese government to discharge water into the sea. so what you have just heard from victor go, is scientifically on the proven and actually a false accusation, not to the japanese government, but to the i a. e, a. and the water that's being the star discharged into the sea

is not contaminated water. it is true, radiated water and involving something called advanced liquid processing system. namely, outputs has just made the radiation level of so low. the only ingredient you're talking about these actually trade trade in. and if treat him is so much harmful, you can't leave a day because a simple i drop of your eyes contains medians of try to him. so it's absolutely safe. right, astrid, you'll be expert. you're going to focus. she met well 6 times i think is net 6, the s. that's right. so china and others, are they right to be worried? what's your next? but a view on that right? well, its own the trick him,

which is the way jack development stuff is less than the spots because they have to if i don't read and i have looked into the and the analysis that has been done from this civil to office, been treated and spent on the life with many independent and support stories across the world to look at if the actual results that they have pets. so each time it says that the work past is actually true and it is so it is proven that so they do the correct measurements. so tracy is very low rate, the activity and cannot pause very much harm because we have very little energy in it. and i think it's important for people to know that the little natural production of the, of treat him because of possibly creation is 4500 times higher than what is proposed to be released from the profession moneys with power plants k. yeah. and also then many of the existing nuclear power plants as well. they have

the discharge of treat to for instance, in china, they have one swamps which gives the discharges directly to the taiwan strait. and vast release is 2 times 52.5 times higher than what is fine from the machine. and in the south korea, for instance, they have discharges directly to the sea of the time from one of their nuclear power plants, which is about 5 times higher than what you start on. and then what about this other thing that's want to see about both? but just wanna jump in as we to go to. let's get through. what about green piece claims that there's not enough focus on top and 14, which is a radioactive substance that apparently has the potential to damage human. then what about that us for the it is not something that needs to be focused on as well . that we all contain carver 40 all living, much ever on the bottom in the world. have talked before to it, so it means, but i am radioactive. you are, you do active just like me because of the carpeting for 2. so carbon 14 also is the

elements which has the better, very low energy just like tricky. and it's not a danger to people. what we should worry about are those fate unified stuff, have a very, very high energy, which could cost benefits. and so for hong, if it is an exposure to a very high level. but this is not the concern for treat you so evict, to respond to asked if you would, that is not a problem with any with it. and in fact, china was discharging at $2.00 times the limit that they will. they are a few kasheila and i'll be to emphasize that they are completely confusing. apple with all rich. the clean water is not to weaving the coal parts of the nuclear reactor in the waste. what do we all talk to you about the discharge of that is the discharge was recycled, us with the coal vault of the reactor and therefore it's completely different. the

japanese government is confusing. investigatory shouldn't try to mislead the public . you'll be there in the world. that's number one. yes, i agree with the japanese patent of this the, that the id. i do the publish a comprehensive report. but she need to read the reset the report, the director general of the i the say for the recall of the comprehensive report is not approval or consent to the japanese government's discharge on the waste water. it is actually emphasizing that whatever the japanese government need to do needs are being stretched to comprise with the i e. a rules. this is completely different . now, if anyone believes that the waste water is safe, if you should drink it, use it in the bath tub, caulked with his own powers. for example, i say a, this is the way. so what do you say to what you just heard from australia? you know, who's an expert on this as beings if you can see me several times and the fact that

the w h o. say that the final level of tricky and will be, is much safer than the level required by regulates is. or if the team got to talk to you about that may be one story, one, but the waste water contains several thousands of of the radioactive elements, many of which, which will cause tremendous amount of home to human pills. and the end result, you may not be reviewed inc, many years or decades and sometimes, but that means to human genes, for example, offered unity for the younger generation may be carried out on generation to generation. back on the top of these couple of actors, an act on the responsibility the operating was by yeah, with the well being of mankind as a whole. because the water discharges the pacific will be circulating around and eventually all the oceans in the world will be contaminated. are the only thing command without the victor, i should say right about it,

but it is here and it goes completely case. what astrid is is a new guarantee, but it's just said, but that's you'll hear. that's fine. told me he code. the thing is, and this is important. the consumer confidence. is it rock boston at right now? or in fact, in 2022 last year rockfish quotes in these wind figures she was, this was found to have 5 times japan safety limits of season 137, which is a different thing. but nonetheless, and then shipments erupt. pritchett was suspended in february 2022 and indeed fresh living near the drainage job that's a few cuz she had a 118 times intimate. somebody so my point is the real time, every hour, every day, the devil of contamination, whether or not the water is humble, is being tested, measured scientifically and it's been disclosed. whatever concerns you may have

that would be solved. and in due course, as time goes by and that's what the situation is like. and the japanese, a discharge of the water does not have pull elements, as was mentioned by victo ago, who is not an nuclear physicist, nuclear ex pet. but he may be reading something or something, some of the policy lines given to him by the chinese communist party, the chinese communist party, the chinese government, a weapon ising. everything including this topic, a bottom line. would you be happy for yourself or for your children? say to the fish fresh from these waters. there has been a massive campaigned available to conduct to live pal man time the tools there has been available lies. may see the speed,

the best. so tools, my big tell lies all these the letter to you and then we'll come to you. my name is v, the tools that need to speak the tools. tell me who i speak. i am speaking the truth. i would rather during that mode or if not great, that you get the, the wall to your house. go so the victor, i can come to the 2nd. we can't understand what time he could say. so you just need to keep quiet just for a 2nd. please, right, there was a, a cabinet minister who were actually drunk. that was a, as early as november 2011 a month after the new pay a receipt where the receipt is here lies a supplier of japan. yeah, he's into the street. uh,

so let me put that cuz make sure i gotta come to you to so i can browse through. let me just put that question to you because it seems pretty fundamental to the whole thing. would you refresh? would you drink water? would you drink this water? coming out of that pipe, the water is not very contaminated because it has been to a fight to a very large sense. so even though it's had lots of different trade, you have to substances in it. uh there is almost nothing left of other substances, some of the tricks in which they cannot purify further. so he'd be happy to drink. it says to drink water, i've been drinking, i've been to proficient him. i've eaten fish taken in such a shame. all right, and i'm not worried and the season, but they find in the fish very close to the port. it's not because of the discharge boss or because of the accident itself. when it happened. an older release suspect went right into the water and also out in the atmosphere and later came down on the 2nd. that's so it's natural welfare is still level. so break active seems given just outside the port and that will be for some time. and that's why they don't

have any experience going on just outside the question, but you'll have to know a little bit further away like 500 meters the way the way from such a patient and this is normal, right? they get evicted by a panelist, happy to drink it, and happy to meet the fish a hi. vantage a was due respect to the distinguish the no region lady allow me to say this. if you really believe the water is safe. so i want 10, the wrench to have the water that weighs the water trust all day to low way and dump it in the legion spheroid. do thing, and what would you people would be happy? do you really want to try this? do you really want to play with the fates all the old people, your kids grandkids know this is an act of irresponsibility. and if the japanese guests talked about was the pc called with this bond, they will try not why they're, how so many deputies protest as they the streets of the companies pop you members on china come all the new clear. how do you,

i would like to publish the political f, b, they shouldn't do it. we need to face science and the site is 1000. don't separate, close the book, all the nature and extent of contamination and danger to mankind. okay. as for the remainder of mankind, us, we're not going to come to, you know, briefly, if you will, because i want to move it on to tell me he cut off to the yes. i will be in france, we have a nuclear reprocessing font, which discharges a $4.00 to $600.00 times more tricks to every yeah. compared to what is the problem with these, from a sufficient they have done so for uh, for decades already. and we know that this does cover in the ocean covers brings that all along to know which is host. i'm sort of the range of the arctic ocean. and so far we have not seen any harmful effects on the environment. and also i'm human how? because of those releases on the i'm just trying to fire of the event. so i'll come

back to the 2nd. let me just go to told me he could i evictions go to point to me. he goes me because this issue of messaging is a real problem. they're all japanese protest is on the street. i think any 53 percent of people, according to a poll support the plan in japan and not happy in the south career, either protest this try to still in the japanese embassy. and so there's, there's a lot of opposition to it is not just, you know, accepted within japan. it's not that in any case is it. so there's a real problem with the messaging from the japanese government, even if the water is safe. i admit that the japanese government and the nuclear react oper, right? tapco have done a much, much better job in messaging. and when it comes to telling the situation to the world, i admit it. but if there is any single country that is organizationally very much opposed to this, that's china. south korea is divided. china is the only country that is

orchestrating public anger. so much that today, medians of phone calls from the uh, country code, 86 uh, coming to japan, and shop owners and restaurants can't do business because of the influx of the calls coming from china. so it's bob said, i would say to the chinese people that they should calm down and look at the scientific facts and uh, and uh, whatever, mr guy says, uh that he is wrong is going to be proven as time goes by. i, as i would say, because each and every day you will see the results of objective measurement conducted by the japanese government. but also i a e, a and i,

i believe i a e a has got a team that includes chinese expert as well. and more to the point, medians of chinese, uh, visiting japan at the moment. i don't think none of those chinese tourists will come back to their homeland without eating any seafood. victor over to you. the fact is, as well, you can respond to the fights as well. that the sea food band that china has implemented will, will bounce back against china as well for the best seafood impulses and everybody involved in that business. right. i personally strongly supposed the chinese government complete the ban of the sea food from the look from japan, and i think of a japanese fish already left through. we'll go into deep trouble. and the japanese kind of talks about chinese tours. the chinese stores low visiting japan, but i don't think they want to eat fishery from the japanese of shaw all going

forward from the oceans from time. and they find that these dodge of the japanese wastewater. this is the mega trend. so the japanese decision, roy and, and we'll, roy refrigerate, email street of japan now from the allow me to mention one point for the just big lives. the problem of this, from the way she is confusing to things clearly walks out for a nuclear rack. stuff is completely different from the wastewater way of talking about from fukushima. they ok different, yeah, apple versus outage. they all love the same clothing water at all last fall. let's focus on what exactly is the waste water from because she might be lost. and that's all to up, i'm not just contain one nuclear re you asked you live, but it contains several problems o d u active. okay, but they sound good. please wait. just gonna run that, which i'm going to. one of the people who did one bill, right,

let me put those you straight. you heard very clearly what victor is putting to you if you could respond to that briefly if you would as well. um, what trick zoom is tricks you when the read comes from such a shame or whether it comes from matthew for reprocessing. find where all the water has gone through the use of nuclear power rods. so treat them as torch them. any way out of the concentration of all the region is size in the water finding complexes, she is extremely, extremely small. so, but it is of course it is difficult for the lay person, so i'm just found differences between different spray directed substance and many of the people, especially in japan, hospitalization, the changes extremely, extremely dangerous. but radiation can be not changes and very it doesn't charge. so it's always difficult to come across with the good message concerning these issues for the late people to understand that i think that you should look at their

release as that are already going on from china, which are greater than what will come from, from the shima and he's the same, brought the same uh, true to those i've seen in the oceans, which are already right. the victor, i'm just going to go to tell me he could for us. if we have time, i will come back to you then. but we are running right up to the end of the program . tell me he code. as i said before, we can appreciate people's misgivings about disposing of radiation into the sea and whatever the site says. so why not keep the water in time until the radiation dissipate? so most storage space is fine. but why was this decision made to, to let it go into the ation? we knew it would be controversial. the tapco has a limit in space and you see hundreds of water tanks being built and they can't build further. and that's the reason and outs the period 5 period fire pass purified of water and that water is being stored in those tags.

probably scientifically, they could discharge those vote to directly to the ocean, but there has been, uh, there. uh uh, we have had to spend some time to have a consensus because it is also about scientific reason, but also about psychological perception. and it is true that most of the people in japan have come to terms with this scientific reasoning. and it's, it's taking time. and in the meantime, tapco has had to store the water in those tags. vic, to finally to you on you flying in the face of scientific reason? no, no, that's all i would. i'm a lawyer. i would urge to set happen things to national tribunal,

to accept mitigation cases against this wrongful decision by the japanese government. for anyone who eventually will be proven to stop a injury and for any business which may have lost the revenue of businesses because of this wrongful decision by the japanese government. and because of the huge scale of this wrong decision, all mankind, i think eventually you will not see an add to the litigation against the japanese government because of this deliberate decision to discharge waste water into the ocean. wait until tomorrow. all right, we have run out of time. now do appreciate all your perspectives on this. thank you to i guess to him he could set a good, she asked for the land and pick to go and thank you. take 40, you can see the program again. any time just by visiting a website out, is there a dot com and for further discussion, just go to our facebook page. that's facebook dot com, forward slash ha,

inside story. and you can also join the conversation on x for me. then just with a, i'll handle is that a j inside story for me mccloud, because the whole team is to bye for now the the with more than 1400000 people in the us. now that was most populous country, millions of young people across the country are unemployed and unable to imagine a meaningful future. these students will take any job they can find. the getting

a job seems like a distance. education alone isn't enough to solve the hardest other demographic challenges. authorities are struggling to persuade couples to use contraceptives. many women only all for sterilization of to having large families. angela begum and her husband trying to have 10 daughters and one son. none of the children have been educated beyond 5th grade. the research on the democratic this austin, how the country fast will determine the lives of future generations to we are the ones traveling the extra mile there are the media, don't go, we go there and we give them a chance to tell the story. how do states control information controlling the narrative to dominate thing, the media?

how does the narrative can pull public opinion and norma spite, it might not be the most important story about china of the day. but that's what the big piece attention to. how is this has been jim listened. we played in the story, the listening post. i fixed the media. we don't cover the news because of the way the news is come of the see what you will just bear with me. so robin de la reminded of all top new stories russian investigators have confirmed that most of the chief can you progression was killed in a plane crash. they say genetic tests confirm the identities of the 10 victims, including the founder of the vault the best. and we crew dosage of already has moved from ok. we just had a statement put out by the investigative committee and, and the statement says that according.
