Reaction of Japanese media to discharging Fukushima nuclear waste water into ocean and the analysis----taking relevant reports of Japanese media as examples

Abstract

Japanese government published the decision that the stored nuclear waste water in Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant would be discharged into ocean, which met with violent objection from surrounding countries. Japanese domestic media reported in succession, and expressed a strong disagreement. And Fukushima local media were full of worries. They believed that local life and fishery production would be influenced for long. Being made a general observation of Japanese media, million tons of treated nuclear waste water discharged into ocean would be quite harmful to the environment. Japanese domestic attitude presented a distinct objection to the decision about discharging nuclear waste water into ocean made by Japanese government.
