Biological monitoring in kanagawa, Japan (November 27, 2012)

Biological monitoring in OMOSHIRO Aquarium.

I visited OMOSHIRO Aquarium in Yokohama China Town, Kanagawa prefecture to see the effects of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. "OMOSHIRO" means interesting or amusing. The aquarium is funded by talent agency "YOSHIMOTO KOUGYOU" which has produced many famous comedians in Japan. As I expected, the aquarium displays fish by unique ways so that everybody can learn about marine creatures happily.
By the way, Yokohama China Town is also known where we can eat various Chinese foods. Do you know that Yokohama China Town is the biggest China Town of the world? I visited there because I wanted to know how people think about Yokohama China Town too. I could see many families, groups or couples enjoying lunch, dinner or shopping happily as if they have forgotten the nuclear accident. People in there have no worry about the accident as if they have never known it.

福島第一原発事故による影響を見るために各地の水族館を訪問している。横浜中華街にある吉本おもしろ水族館は海洋生物について楽しく学べる工夫が随所にある。水族館の生物は日本の海産物を食べ日本人と同じ環境で暮らしており、彼らの健康状態を見ることは重要である。






This is OMOSHIRO Aquarium.
“OMOSHIRO” means interesting or amusing in Japanese.
Exactly, the aquarium is a very amusing.

The aquarium is 3rd floor of CHINASQUARE in Yokohama China Town.

 Kanagawa prefecture is safe.







Kanagawa prefecture is far from Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. And the prefecture has no nuclear power plant. So it seems that people in Kanagawa prefecture have no concern about the accidents. People in Kanagawa prefecture are living in usual life as if the accidents had never occurred before.
 

I continue to visit to aquariums in Japan to see the effects of Fukushima Daiichi 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.
