Biological monitoring in Chiba (November 26, 2013)

Biological monitoring at Kamogawa SEA WORLD

I visited Kamogawa SEA WORLD to see biological impacts of Fukushima No.1 nuclear power plant accident. Though I have visited various places in Japan to see the health consequence of the accident, I have never found any effect against creatures in Japan.

Kamogawa SEA WORLD is a world class aquarium, well known throughout Japan for its killer whale family. In addition to the killer whale show, main attractions of the facility are the dolphin show, sea lion performance and beluga whale performance. Approximately 11,000 sea creatures of 800 species are on display. You can enjoy a fun and relaxing time watching these creatures of the sea with your family, friends or someone special.

So I visited Kamogawa SEA WORLD to see effects of the accident against marine creatures which are grown up by Japanese food and water.
Fortunately, I could see them grown up safely and I couldn't find any impact of the accident. It seems that there is no problem for childbirth and child-rearing in Chiba Japan.

2 and a half years have passed since Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. I have visited various places of Japan to see the health consequence of the accident.

Fortunately I have never found any impacts by the accident among Japanese creatures. As far as I know, nobody has health problem which is caused by the accident in Japan.

Our Prime Minister Abe assures that "The situation is under control and there will never be health problems." He also said that "Tokyo is 250 kilometers away from Fukushima, and the kind of danger that you imagine does not exist in Tokyo. Tokyo is a very safe city."

Chiba prefecture is very far away from Fukushima as same as Tokyo and people in Chiba have no concern about the nuclear power plant accident. People in Chiba prefecture have already forgotten the accident, because it is very far away from the Fukushima and radioactive materials cannot reach there.

We know there is no problem for child birth and child rearing in Chiba. So people in Chiba are living without any concern about the accident.

I continue to visit various places in Japan to see the effects of the accident, because I can meet various creatures which are more sensitive to radioactive materials from the environment. It is important to see their health for our safety.

Biological monitoring in Kanagawa (November 19, 2013)

Biological monitoring at Enoshima Aquarium (November 19, 2013)

I visited Enoshima Aquarium to see biological impacts of Fukushima No.1 nuclear power plant accident. Though I have visited various places in Japan to see the health consequences of the accident, I have never found any effect against creatures in Japan.

Enoshima Aquarium is located in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture, near Shonan's Sagami Bay. It has beautiful views of the floating island of Enoshima and Mt. Fuji, making it an ideal place to exhibit the diversity of Sagami Bay's environment and world-class research on the region's marine wildlife. Enoshima Aquarium shows us not only various kinds of marine creatures but also entertains people with marine animal shows.

So I visited Enoshima Aquarium to see effects of the accident against marine creatures which are grown up by Japanese food and water.
Fortunately, I could see them grown up safely and I couldn't find any impact of the accident. It seems that there is no problem for childbirth and child-rearing in Kanagawa Japan.
