Biological monitoring in Kanagawa (July 3, 2013)

Biological monitoring at YOKOHAMA HAKKEIJIMA SEA PARADISE
 
I visited YOKOHAMA HAKKEIJIMA SEA PARADISE to see biological impacts of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. Though I have visited various places in Japan to see the health consequence of the accident, I can find no effect against creatures in Japan.
There are over 500 different varieties of fish with more than 100,000 sea creatures there. It is one of the largest Aquariums in Japan. There is an immense three-story aquarium filled with thousands of tropical and fresh water fish. You can even enjoy fishing horse mackerel. Furthermore we can cook and eat them inside the facility.
Generally speaking, fish'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 aquarium to see effects of the accident against creatures which are living in Japan.
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.

It seems that luck of pigments causes the color.

2 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.
So people in Kanagawa have already forgotten the nuclear power plant accident too. Because Kanagawa prefecture is very far away from the site and radioactive materials cannot reach there. We know there is no problem for child birth and child rearing there. So people in Kanagawa prefecture are living without any concern about the accident.
I continue to visit various places in the world 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 Tokyo (June 26, 2013)

Biological monitoring at Sunshine Aquarium (June 26, 2013)
 
I visited Sunshine Aquarium to see biological impacts of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. Though I have visited various places in Japan to see the health consequence of the accident, I can find no effect against creatures in Japan.
The Sunshine Aquarium was reopened in 2011 as a state-of-the-art metropolitan aquarium. Designed as an “Oasis in the Sky,” the aquarium features popular attractions such as the “Sunshine Aqua Ring” with its view of sea lions swimming overhead and the dreamlike “Jellyfish Tunnel.” You can also enjoy performances by sea lions and underwater divers, as well as sea otter and penguin feeding shows. 
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 aquarium to see effects of the accident against creatures which are living in Japan.
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.
