太平洋の放射能汚染 引用元:メッセージ　2016年10月7日 Dear Friends. I am sending you an alarming information about the radioactive contamination of the Pacific Ocean. http://peakoil.com/enviroment/fukushima-radiation-has-contaminated-the-entire-pacific-ocean-and-its-going-to-get-worse Here is an excerpt. “In 2014, radiation on California beaches increased by 500 percent. In response, government officials said that the radiation was coming from a mysterious “unknown” source and was nothing to worry about. However, Fukushima is having a bigger impact than just the West coast of North America. Scientists are now saying that the Pacific Ocean is already radioactive and is currently at least 5-10 times more radioactive than when the US government dropped numerous nuclear bombs in the Pacific during and after World War II. If we don’t start talking about Fukushima soon, we could all be in for a very unpleasant surprise.” This information convinces us once again that the most urgent task for Japan is to consecrate maximum efforts to bring Fukushima under control.Fukushima cannot be brought under control by Japan alone.I continue to send messages to some world top leaders with a view to convincing them that Fukushima is a global environment issue. The construction of a sarcophagus is urgently needed. An underground wall to stop the flow of undergroud water should be built as soon as possible at the site to prevent contaminated water from reaching the sea.The enormous spending of the Tokyo Olympic Games 2020 should be diverted to these crucial undertakings. The advice of Fomer Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama to abandon theToyosu fish market and decide on the honorable retreat from the Tokyo Plympic 2020 is proving wise and realistic. Its supporters are definitely increasing.It gives top priority to life,and not to economy. Please allow me to count on your understanding and support. With warmest regards, Mitsuhei Murata Former Ambassador to Switzerland

　3日、寄せられた下記情報は太平洋の放射能汚染の衝撃的現状を伝えるものですが、これを伝えました。

　福島事故処理は地球環境問題であるとの確信が深まります。
　この認識を広めるために一部の世界のトップリーダーに向けて発信していることに言及いたしました。

　日本の最緊急課題は全力を尽くして福島事故対応に当たることであり、東京五輪の経費を割いてでも石棺の建設及び汚染水対策としての遮水壁の設置を急ぐべきことを指摘しました。
　鳩山元総理の豊洲市場の断念及び東京五輪返上のご提言（経済よりも生命を最優先する姿勢を反映）が現実味を帯びつつあリ、賛同者が確実に増えつつあることに言及しました。

　ご理解とご支援をお願い申し上げます。
