We are not satisfied that the treated nuclear wastewater being discharged is safe – Nabulivou

We are not satisfied that truly independent assessments have been thoroughly done in relation to Japan’s planned discharge of the 1.3 million metric tonnes of ‘treated’ nuclear wastewater into the Pacific Ocean.

That is the clear statement to the people and leaders by DIVA For Equality Founder and co-organiser of the protest march and people’s rally against the Fukushima nuclear wastewater dumping, Noelene Nabulivou.

Nabulivou says the Pacific Conference of Churches, youth led organisations like Alliance for Future Generations, Fiji Women’s Rights Movement, DIVA For Equality and Soqosoqo Vakamarama amongst others will be part of the solidarity people’s rally in Suva for the health of the Pacific Ocean from 10am this Friday.

She says the action being taken by Japan is very concerning.

Nabulivou says it is clear that independent assessments have not been done on how it will affect the people in the Pacific.

The protest march starts from the Suva Flea Market at 10am Friday, and a people’s rally will be held at Albert Park after the march on the same day.
