Fukushima --Effects on Canada
Blogged by: Stephen
Do you remember the horrible nuclear disaster that happened at the Fukushima daiichi power plant? For those of you who don't the Fukushima disaster occurred on March, 11, 2011.The accident happened when a 9.0 magnitude earthquake hit japan triggering a tsunami, This tsunami caused critical damage to the power plants cooling systems causing them to start pouring out radioactive substances into the water.
Not only has the disaster greatly impacted our water quality and infected fish and other sea life with very harmful radiation. The effects of fukushima are also now directly affecting sea life directly off the canadian coast. Now you may be wondering, why does the news not promote this issue so canadians are aware of it? I do not know the answer to this, But i do know that it is an issue directly affecting canadians food sources, water and land quality. I don't know about you but if the fish i was eating contained tons of radiation, i would want to know about it!
Lets make a change and get the word out about this issue!
Change can start with you!
