Japan discharges nuclear plant’s treated water

  • 24/08/2023

Japan began discharging the nuclear plant’s treated waste water into the Pacific Ocean on Thursday, a move that has sparked protests around the region and prompted retaliation from China, the country’s largest buyer of seafood. On Thursday, China announced that it would block all Japanese seafood imports. Japan claims that the water is safe to release, and many scientists support the plan. The UN’s nuclear watchdog has also supported the plan.
