Fukushima: Urgent international petition

Peter Weber | 25.09.2013 09:27 | Anti-Nuclear | Globalisation | Repression | Cambridge | Oxford

Urgent international petition calling for immediate action on the uncontrolled radioactive discharges at Tepco’s Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant .... This is clearly not an appropriate time for Japan to restart nuclear plants or export nuclear technology .... The ocean, the source of life, must not be contaminated further ........ We hereby petition the Japanese national government and related entities to undertake the following commitments.


Clarify the Japanese government’s responsibility concerning the radioactive discharges into the ocean. Concentrate fully on dealing with this issue, and suspend all activity aimed at restarting nuclear plants in Japan and exporting nuclear power reactors to other countries. Japan’s new post-Fukushima regulatory standards do not take into account the possibility of uncontrolled radioactive releases into the ocean. Processing applications to restart nuclear plants in Japan under these conditions can result in additional uncontrolled releases and must be suspended. Implement maximum efforts to prevent further contamination of the ocean. Install tanks for the storage of the contaminated water that are more robust and sustainable in order to prevent leakage. Deliberate discharge of the contents of the radioactive water in tanks into the ocean absolutely must not be permitted. ......... more .......  https://fs220.xbit.jp/n362/form2/ /  http://principiis-obsta.blogspot.se/2013/09/der-gefahrlichste-moment-in-der.html
