Biological monitoring in Tokyo (April 1, 2014)

Biological monitoring at  Epson Aqua Stadium, Tokyo.

 I visited Epson Aqua Stadium 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.
 Epson Aqua Stadium shows us nearly 10,000 of the world's sea creatures from nearly 350 species. We can enjoy an underwater stroll in the sea 20-meter submarine tunnel. This is the only aquarium in the world displaying dwarf sawfish. 
 The magnificent performances of the dolphins will enthrall you. Be sure to see all of the dolphins' twenty different techniques.
 Generally speaking, animal's growth is so fast than human beings that they are more sensitive to radioactive materials of the environment than us. So I visited The Epson Aqua Stadium to see effects of the accident against 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 Tokyo Japan.

東京都品川区にあるエプソン品川アクアスタジアムはノコギリザメの泳ぐ姿を見ることが出来る世界でも珍しい水族館だ。イルカやアザラシのパフォーマンスは驚きの連続で、時間が経つのを忘れてしまう。

Incredible performances with dynamic jumps by bottlenose dolphins and the sheer speed of Pacific white-sided dolphins can be seen.

Amazing performances will surprise you.





Japanese foods are good and safe.
Because of stricter food safety law by Japanese government, we have no worry about foods.

 About 3 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. The influence of the contaminated water is completely blocked within Fukushima. There are no health-related problems until now 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."
 As PM Abe said, Tokyo is very far away from Fukushima, people in Tokyo have no concern about the nuclear power plant accident. People in Tokyo have already forgotten the accident, because they think radioactive materials cannot reach there.
 We know there is no problem for child birth and child rearing in Tokyo. So people in Tokyo 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.
