The costly underground “Ice wall” to prevent radioactive leakage has not really been effective. Radioactive water continues to pour into the Pacific ocean. Exposures levels go up while environmental health protections are lifted: life is devalued. No. of children at time of Fukushima disaster diagnosed with thyroid cancer reaches 160.

Obviously the Department of Industry Innovation and Science (DIIS) was not happy with the majority of submissions opposing the process, so now are trying to get a better (for them) result
