いろいろな人がいろいろな仕事をして生きている。そして、今は詳しく内容については書くことが出来ないが、悲痛の叫びも届く。気持ちは痛いほどに分る。しかし、この難事は乗り越えるしかない。前を向いて乗り越えて進むしかない。
だが、被災地の人々の事を思うと何とも落ち着かない時間が過ぎる。福島原発の不安を抱えながら、そして疲労困憊の時間を過ごしている方々の事を思うと・・・自分の非力さを感じる。
英国政府機関が東京在住者英国民に出した福島原発の状況への見解。参考までに。
BCCJ Members Update on Japan's Nuclear Power station situation
2011.03.15
At 5pm Tokyo time (Tuesday 15th March 2011) an telephone briefing was given by Sir John Beddington the UK's Chief Scientific adviser and Hilary Walker Deputy Director Emergency Preparedness at the Department of Health.
"Unequivocally, Tokyo will not be affected by the radiation fallout of explosions that have or may occur at the Fukushima nuclear power stations."
The danger area is within the 30 kilometer evacuation zone and no one is recommended or will be allowed to enter this area other than those people directly involved with the emergency procedures currently being undertaken at both Fukushima 1 & 2.
Sir John went on to answer a series of questions including a comparison between Chernobyl and Japan. He said "they are entirely different, Chernobyl exploded and there was a subsequent fire with radioactive materials being launched 30,000 ft into the air." The maximum height of any Fukushima explosions would be no more than 500 metres.
"The radiation that has been released is miniscule and would have to be orders of 1,000 or more for it to be a threat to humans" This was confirmed by Hilary Walker.
He went on to say that the Japanese authorities are doing their best to keep the reactors cooled and that this is a continuing operation. All workers on site dealing with the emergency are being fully decontaminated at the end of each shift.
When asked on how reliable was the information coming from the Japanese authorities as to radiation levels he said "this cannot be fabricated and the Japanese authorities are positing all the readings on the recognized international inforamton sites which they are obliged to do. Independent verification shows that the data provided is accurate".
In answer to a specific question from the Head of the British School in Tokyo, Sir John Beddington and Hilary Walker said that there was no reason at all for the school to be closed unless there were other issues such as power outages and transport problems.
David Fitton, First Minister at the British Embassy in Tokyo moderated the teleconference and confirmed that a transcript of the briefing will be available on the Embassy website later today.
BCCJ members are encouraged to regularly check the Embassy website as well as the Chamber website and Facebook sites for the latest information.
