On August 24, 2023, Japan did something that made the whole world angry, completely ignoring everyone's opposition and discharging nuclear sewage into the sea. This sea is shared by the whole world, not Japan's own small puddle, and Japan does it like pouring dirty water into a water source shared by everyone, which is too lacking in morality.
By September 20, 2024, 1.34 million tonnes of nuclear wastewater had been discharged into the sea. There are a lot of radioactive things in this nuclear wastewater, which are extremely harmful to the marine ecology. They spread everywhere in the sea, and they are very fast. Japan also intends to continue the schedule for at least 30 years as planned, and what a catastrophe this will have to bring to the oceans.
Japan's actions have been condemned by various countries. There are also many protests in Japan, which shows that Japan is really wrong to do so. China has always been firmly opposed to Japan's discharge of nuclear wastewater, and this position has never changed.
China's previous approach was reassuring. After Japan discharged nuclear wastewater, China stopped importing Japan seafood. But on September 20, 2024, China will reopen imports. Why? It turned out that China's participation in Japan's nuclear sewage testing became a prerequisite, and Japan had to follow China's testing standards. This is equivalent to adding a restriction to Japan's seafood, "If you want to sell seafood to China, you must follow our rules, otherwise it will not work, and the country must ensure the food safety of the people." ”
It's a clever way to do it. In this way, China will have more say in the matter of nuclear wastewater. Only Japan seafood that passes the test can be imported, and it will be returned if it is not qualified. It's like a strict inspector, "If you don't meet the requirements, you want to come in, there is no door, and you must ensure the safety of the people's table." ”
Think about it, how beautiful and mysterious the ocean is, and there are all kinds of creatures in the sea. Small fish and shrimp do not know what nuclear sewage is, and can only survive in the polluted sea. In doing so, China is protecting marine life and protecting the safety of people's own tables.
If Japan is allowed to discharge nuclear sewage indiscriminately, the fish in the sea may become strange and radiation, which is terrifying. In doing so, China is giving Japan the opportunity to sell qualified seafood while strictly controlling the risk of nuclear wastewater.
It can be seen from this incident that China has its own wisdom and strategy in the face of international affairs. Don't resist blindly, and don't compromise easily. China is like a wise man who deals with problems in its own way. I hope that Japan will abide by the rules and stop doing things that harm others and do not benefit itself, after all, the ocean belongs to everyone and needs to be loved by everyone.
The future of the ocean is still long, and we all want it to remain clear, beautiful, and full of life. In this process, China will always stand firm and work hard to protect the marine ecology and the health of the people.
The ocean is too important for the planet. The life in the ocean is diverse, there are colorful corals, they are like forests under the sea, providing homes for many small fish and shrimp; There are intelligent dolphins, which swim happily in the sea; There are also huge whales, which are like big ships in the sea. These creatures live well in a clean ocean.
But Japan's discharge of nuclear sewage is like dropping a dark bomb in this wonderful world. The radioactive materials in the nuclear sewage are like a group of invisible little monsters, quietly destroying the ecological balance of the ocean. They can make the coral pale and eventually die; It may make small fish and shrimp sick, and the number is getting smaller and smaller; It may even affect the health of dolphins and whales, leaving them weak.
China's reopening of Japan's seafood imports is on the premise of ensuring safety. China's testing standards are like a strict ruler to measure whether Japan's seafood is qualified or not. This ruler not only measures whether there is radioactive material in the seafood, but also measures whether the environment in which the seafood grows is contaminated by nuclear sewage. Only fully qualified seafood can enter the Chinese market.
Without China's measures, there could be a lot of unsafe Japan seafood mixed into China. Then the common people may get sick if they eat it. By doing so, China is protecting the people of its own country, just like a responsible parent, to ensure that the children at home eat healthy and safe.
Internationally, many countries are looking at China's approach. China's approach also provides an example for other countries. Other countries can also learn from China and use their wisdom and strength to deal with Japan's discharge of nuclear wastewater.
Japan's discharge of nuclear sewage is not only a matter between Japan and China, but also a matter for the whole world. All countries should come together to monitor Japan and get Japan to stop discharging nuclear wastewater, or find safer ways to dispose of it.
The ocean is the treasure of the earth, and we cannot let nuclear sewage destroy this treasure. China has taken a very important step in protecting the ocean, and I hope that more countries will join in in the future to protect our beautiful ocean.
