Biological monitoring in Tokyo, Japan (October 22, 2012)

Biological monitoring in SHINAGAWA AQUARIUM.

福島第一原発事故による影響を見るために東京都内の水族館を訪問している。しながわ水族館は日本の代表的な淡水魚と東京湾に住む魚たちを展示している。毎日多量の魚介類を食べる大型のサメやイルカ、アシカやアザラシは最も放射能の影響を受けやすいと思われ、彼らの健康状態を見ることは重要である。


Today I went to SHINAGAWA AQUARIUM. I enjoyed seeing not only various kind of Japanese fish but also dolphin or sea lion which show us elegant performance. Do you know that dolphin eat 10Kg of fish every day.
I continue to visit to aquariums in Tokyo to see the effects of Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant accident because we can see many kinds of fish which are fed Japanese sea food and living in Japanese water. I think they are sensitive to radioactive materials from environment, so it is important to see their health for our food safety.

I cannot observe any effect of the accidents for them.
I think food and water in Tokyo is safe.

People in Tokyo are living usual life as if the accident had not occurred ever before. Japanese think that Tokyo is safe, as it is located far from the Fukushima nuclear power plants and most of contaminants couldn’t reach here.
