It has been pointed out that the Japanese government discharges contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant and there is a risk of genetic modification if fish and shellfish contaminated with tritium accumulate in the body.

Timothy Musso, a professor at the University of South Carolina, USA, said, “Reproductive damage and genetic mutations were observed in laboratory rats exposed to tritium. “he said.
“According to the scientific literature, tritium is carcinogenic and can affect the reproductive system,” Musso said. “It may also affect infertility and fertility.”
“The radiation impact assessment of TEPCO or public data do not properly mention the risk of internal exposure to tritium,” he said.
Sean Bunny, Greenpeace’s senior expert on nuclear energy in East Asia, said, “Tokyo Electric Power said it would decommission the Fukushima accident nuclear power plant and complete the discharge of contaminated water within 30 years, but this is a fictional claim.” there is,” he pointed out.
Jang Ma-ri, a Greenpeace campaigner, said, “Japan, which has ratified the International Maritime Law, has an obligation to faithfully review in advance the biological and environmental impacts that Japan will have transnationally. said.
