where did it take.

for moscow these are the top stories japanese authorities are launching a massive radiation check ups in the fukushima area three months after the nuclear disaster that's made public anger with the government's late response to the leaks and the lack of transparency that. germany is on their pressured to lock up in a tory is not the officer who's been convicted of war crimes but remains in large. over half a century ago and found shelter in germany legislation prevented his extradition. and russia split over a proposed restrictions on abortion many say the moving to tackling demographic decline will breach of women's rights and resolve them or abandon children. speak to a greenpeace activist who is among those conducting an independent investigation into the health effects of living near the stricken from

a nuclear plant which he says are carefully hidden by the japanese government. and we are here with veronica with a greenpeace international group which is active here in japan especially in measuring radiation levels in fukushima and the disaster zone after the earthquake and tsunami and subsequent nuclear disaster and so thank you very much for taking a moment to join us today my first question to you is if you could tell us a little bit about what you're doing here and why is it important for greenpeace to be here to get this message out yes we're getting pieces organizing a team of specialists which i've actually already one week after the nuclear accident started to unfold and we see our role but i'm really at the moment to take independent investigation and actually make the measurements of the levels of contamination of the big amount of the food people eat and we also have sent our

affleck shipping warrior to the sea to actually measure the contamination of the ocean and the marine life which is an important part of the diet of the japanese population and as we were talking earlier you were saying that it is very interesting to see this city has sort of a parallel life if you will the disaster in one hand in and people going about their daily business on the other hand talking a little bit about that i actually find it but it's generally what it disturbing because on one hand you see the japanese are three. forcing people and the society to be back to normal kind of so that people go to work again kids go to this cause farmers start to actually plant bigger fields because it's a growing season and yet at the same time. there are still extremely high levels of radiation and the contamination of both in the soil but also potentially in the food so for me was literally like visiting another universe in

a way that on one layer you see the life of mom our city. we were in the center of fukushima town so it was pretty civilized everything going as normal and then you go with the equipment and you can actually see that all over the spot but it's like thirty to fifty times increased the level of radiation and then at public places like the playgrounds the school yards and on the streets where people are kids to go to the schools that are hot spots that go even up to five hundred seven hundred times above what is normal and this is just unbelievable because at those levels of exposure this is certainly risking the health and lives of people and if you go the butt out of the chernobyl disaster then actually soviets decided to evacuate everyone. that was living at the place where the radiation was even three or four times slower than what we can see in fukushima city today this is three months after the accident started but the japanese these japanese are thirty sexually bay

we can hold information they don't tell people the truth and they don't provide them with any kind of support that the people who deserve how exactly is greenpeace getting involved right now what activities are you doing and what are you encouraging as i've said again peace is now focusing on very few measurements that are they can independently of the government and in that sense we've actually managed to force the government to for example extent the monitoring of the sea and we also hear that the government is now revising at least some of the protective measures for children which is definitely good to see but if the government is still slow and doing too little actually there now the situation will be there for the long term we see overall that we would like to be on standby or be a disposer for the communities that are impacted and we want to talk specialists and the equipment here during the course of the year or perhaps until next year as well because especially when the harvest season comes and then we can expect there

. risks that actually foods will enter the markets and then people get can get into not contamination which from the health but it's but the fish much more serious than just being anything from outside from the street on the ground and in terms of a long term solution what you see for the future of japan as this crisis plays out because this isn't something that is going to wrap up very easily you can see from the. all of us of contamination and the contaminants which are basically at the moment based on the cesium. that have but if you're wrong half lives there further contamination will be around for many years spreads even the kates and therefore we are only coping with long param serious implications and the impact of the accident in that sense what is crucial is one thing the government really begs the. science first and puts the interest of public health but affection at the first

place and doesn't play the politics as they have been doing so far and second thing is that even from ontario i think it's important for japan to learn the lessons in the sense that nuclear power as we have seen is inherently unsafe but it's all of us unpredictable combination of the nature of catastrophe that technology can figure human error or that can result in the situation when the reactor gets out of control where a fast it was some question a few hours when the full meltdown happened and in that sense it's only unsafe to take the bets and continue with nuclear power we believe that the japanese government and decision makers sway or change the course of the country and we are pretty convinced that it's feasible for japan to phase out nuclear power in the next decade by twenty twenty because there is a pretty big potential for a nearby now decent efficiency that japan can dip into and moving past japan into the the rest of the world what do you think the rest of the world can learn from

this there are definitely not only lessons for japan itself but it applies to other countries we have seen a major shift already in a number of big economies for example in germany where definitely as a result of the fukushima disaster the government actually took big uterine in the policy and although initially they advocated extension of the lifetime of the current leader for the actress now the order of that half of them is shut down immediately and the rest will be phased out in increased weight increased by the end of the as well we have seen many telly taking place this weekend where actually ninety five percent of population of all didn't know so there is no nuclear power in the future of the country switzerland speeded up as well the phase out and basically abandoned the plans to build new reactors and even in france which is one of the. hold of nuclear in the state recent poll shows that seventy seven percent

of population actually wants to phase out from you've got a bar in the country so we can see a major shift and we just believe that. this is america's will not fall to the type of the industry and its will be a game and they will follow. the interests of public and the future generations in that sense that there will be no new construction of music that is the current for each will be going to do only faced out and that by twenty fifty the world can actually achieve for you and your burner to supply globally and shifting more to a personal level if you don't mind you have been to fukushima you've seen this evidence of radiation what does it mean for you to be there and to witness this tragedy firsthand for me was what a strong personal experience i've been before and this was the second time i was so exposed to the true face of the disaster when on one hand you actually understand

the numbers and you know what that means for the impact on health and the impact on environment and you also see those situations like for example when one mother was crying to us because she was desperate she wanted to protect the children but she didn't know what to do or should have no information and those things are really moving me worry much and that. just motivates make chili to do the work that i'm doing because i believe that we must make sure that things like this don't happen anymore anywhere again. hungry for the full story we've got it first the biggest issues get a human voice to face with the news makers on our t.v. . download the official auntie application to your i phone or i pod touch from
