Of course this is as usual a very patient and civil affair and since the mass media aren't exactly interested, a lot relies on the web. But there is certainly momentum. Every mother I talk to on the playground knows what's going on and they're not happy about it. They are all on Twitter, Mixi etc. so now there needs to be some articulation of this discontent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-88518139285536437562011-06-09T16:21:40.461-07:002011-06-09T16:21:40.461-07:00I live in Osaka and the issue of food safety is of...I live in Osaka and the issue of food safety is of great concern to us. From the outset of the nuclear disaster we have adopted strict habits about food. <br /><br />1) Eat only what you cook. You don't know what standard restaurants are using to source their ingredients. When we've asked, they either don't know or are offended that we should ask.<br /><br />2) Buy products only south of the Nagano mountain range, which seems to be the cut off for contamination. Preferably buy products through cooperative (COOP) supermarkets which do independent testing of their produce for radiation (with facilities that were set up for testing EU products in the aftermath of Chernobyl). <br /><br />3) When in doubt, wash vegetables with zeolite, the same mineral they are using to absorb the radiation on a wider scale at Fukushima.<br /><br />Clearly this has destroyed much of our joy in the culinary culture here as well as in social dining at other's homes: to demand a host holds to the same standard of safety is culturally difficult to do here; embarrassing a host is taboo anywhere, and especially here.<br /><br />I shiver at the thought of the school lunches that children have no choice but to eat, especially when ingredients fall under the provisional 500 Bq/kg limit. And now that they want to raise that. . . It's unconscionable and more likely criminal. What a thing to do in a country with a birthrate of 1.27!<br /><br />Clearly what needs to happen is enough public outcry to more stringently test all food and demand that restaurants and food producers state the sources of ingredients -- allow the public to make an informed decision, especially when the safety of children is at stake. Instead, you see the agricultural and business community circling wagons and allowing the consumer to suffer in their push to ensure fiscal survival.<br /><br />There is an element here, as the creator of this blog knows, of "we're all in this together", which in different times and circumstances is admirable, but not when the genetic integrity of the young is at risk. Shame on those who would allow the youth to suffer the consequences of not making the tough call to necessarily be more dependent on imported food (and thus undermine the primacy of Japan Agriculture [JA]). <br /><br />Great work with this blog -- I have recommended it to dozens of friends and hundreds of university students.xanteachernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-70586440499831329402011-06-09T16:14:33.851-07:002011-06-09T16:14:33.851-07:00I used to trust Japan.

It may be a different situation for vegetables such as cabbage, where the water is left behind. <br />In any case, the Japanese people are being very gradually introduced to the reality that their homeland has been contaminated.

Its decay products (beta, gamma) and their energies are (very roughly) comparable to those of Cs-137.<br /><br />I just looked this up, trying to interpret the meaning of the numbers you quoted based on physics, rather than government.<br /><br />By the way, I've become a regular reader of your blog.
