Japan has approved a plan to release contaminated water from the destroyed Fukushima nuclear plant into the sea

Japan decides to dump water from the emergency nuclear power plant "Fukushima-1" into the Pacific Ocean. The country's government noted that it will be cleared of radioactive elements. However, China has already warned that the water from the Japanese nuclear power plant could adversely affect the marine environment and the health of residents of neighboring countries.Japan decides to dump purified water from the emergency nuclear power plant (NPP) "Fukushima-1" into the Pacific Ocean in two years. This was reported by the Kyodo agency, approved at a meeting of the cabinet of the minister headed by Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga.In 2011, an earthquake and tsunami disaster occurred at the Fukushima-1 nuclear power plant due to an earthquake and tsunami. Due to the radiation leak, about 150,000 people were evacuated, about 16,000 people died due to the disaster. In 2013, the station was finally closed. Water is completely at nuclear power plants for cooling nuclear reactors, but it is impossible to clean it from radioactive elements. Now the liquid is cleared of strontium, deuterium and other substances, but tritium remains in it.
