中新网评：处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事******
中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称，将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对，企图将核污水“一倒了之”，把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。
资料图：日本福岛第一核电站。2011年，福岛核电站事故发生后，大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋，对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害，数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日，作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。
日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由，在2021年4月13日，正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多，日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。
日本政府辩称，这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全，甚至“可以喝”，这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。
事实上，经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质，核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收，长期来看，将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁，最终危害人类健康。
因此，核污水排海计划推出后，遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示，福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中，约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场，反对该计划。
日本政府认为，核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案，但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海，核污水会随着洋流流动，其影响势必会跨越国界，危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。
《韩国经济新闻》发文称，相关研究认为，福岛核污水如果排放入海，约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域，该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。
德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告，若日本将所有核污水排入海中，不到半年，整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁，包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。
日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国，有义务保护海洋环境。然而，在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上，日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。
国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估，但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论，并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下，日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设，这是极不负责任的行为。
太平洋不是日本的下水道，日本必须正视各方合理关切，在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后，制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远，若只顾眼前，执意将核污水排放入海，不仅其自身，周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单，其后果必将会危害数代人。
Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business
By John Lee
(ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year.
Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business.
The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year.
The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public.
In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run.
Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public.
The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution.
The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community.
The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses.
According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan.
As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment.
However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact.
Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad.
The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies.
If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
舌尖上的新疆兵团：“黄金烤肉”在传承中铺就致富路****** (新春走基层)舌尖上的新疆兵团：“黄金烤肉”在传承中铺就致富路 中新网乌鲁木齐2月3日电 (戚亚平 张芷榕 刘茹)每天13点一到，位于新疆生产建设兵团第十四师皮山农场科技路社区的“我喜欢烤肉店”门口就排起了队，前来购买、品尝“黄金烤肉”的顾客络绎不绝。 “‘黄金烤肉’特别好吃，准备买回家和爸爸妈妈一起品尝，味道特别香，大家有时间也来尝一尝。”居民约麦尔·麦麦提说。  “黄金烤肉”新鲜出炉。 刘茹 摄记者近日来到皮山农场“黄金烤肉”第三代传人排尔哈提·吾斯曼家的烤肉店看到，兄弟俩正将玉米面过筛，金灿灿的玉米面在筛盘下快乐飞舞着，营造出一种专属于塔克拉玛干沙漠的飞沙景象，不免令人惊叹。 起初，排尔哈提·吾斯曼家并不富裕，其祖辈就利用当地磨细的玉米面，研制了一款类似江南传统名菜“粉蒸肉”一样的美食——由玉米面包裹的馕坑烤羊肉。 这款用炉火烤制的“黄金烤肉”，得到民众的喜爱。 地处塔克拉玛干沙漠边缘的皮山农场属暖温带干旱荒漠性气候，羊肉是民众一年四季不可或缺的食物，不同季节食用羊肉也有不同的讲究。  用炉火烤制的“黄金烤肉”深受民众喜爱。 刘茹 摄制作“黄金烤肉”时，排尔哈提·吾斯曼先将新鲜羊肉切成均等的1公斤，再由姐姐用针和棉线串起，打好结后放在盐水中浸泡。静待1小时立即捞起，撒入提前配好的孜然和辣椒面，均匀搅拌使羊肉充分入味。 接着，由弟弟完成下一步骤，涂抹金黄色纯天然的玉米面，羊排和玉米面自然地融合。 另一边，排尔哈提·吾斯曼将盐水洒向馕坑里，把炉火调节到合适温度，将串起烤肉的铁钩一串串依次挂在坑口上，盖上盖子，用棉布平铺在盖顶保温，再用沙土完全覆盖。 耐心等待2小时后，“黄金烤肉”出炉。 “我们家的‘黄金烤肉’特别好吃，很嫩。希望大家来品尝。”排尔哈提·吾斯曼说。  顾客购买“黄金烤肉”。 刘茹 摄在等待烤制的时间里，一家人分工明确，两兄弟擦桌子、拖地，姐姐则会利用微信发布动态。如今消费模式升级，当有顾客需要预定时，都会提前线上联系。 排尔哈提·吾斯曼曾在2020年去烹饪学校学习，回家后将“黄金烤肉”的制作流程、腌制配方、烤制时长等进一步改良，做出老少皆宜的烤肉。 据悉，皮山农场“黄金烤肉”在和田地区小有名气，可口的味道和优良的服务，赢得农场及周边地区消费者的青睐。 时光流逝，排尔哈提·吾斯曼家里第四代小小烤肉家也在茁壮成长。他们写完作业，闻着飘香的烤肉味，走到室外的馕坑前，时而观看长辈们的烤肉过程，时而微笑看着每一个前来购买烤肉的顾客……(完)
