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.
真实的岳飞是怎样的？文武双全 淡泊名利 尽忠报国****** 中新网北京1月29日电 最近，电影《满江红》掀起了一波观影热潮。故事中，南宋绍兴年间，岳飞死后四年，秦桧率兵与金国会谈。 然而就在会谈前夜，金国使者死在宰相驻地，所携密信不翼而飞。小兵张大与亲兵营副统领孙均被裹挟进一场巨大阴谋之中，宰相秦桧命两人限一个时辰之内找到凶手。命运浮沉，小人物阴差阳错入局，故事就此展开。 随着电影热映，人们对南宋抗金名将岳飞以及著名词作《满江红》的讨论热度居高不下，河南省汤阴县岳飞纪念馆(又称汤阴岳飞庙)也火了。日前，岳飞纪念馆面向全国游客推出福利：“凡在岳飞纪念馆入门处熟练背诵《满江红》，即可免费游览。”  资料图：图为一名游客在岳飞纪念馆门前背诵《满江红》。靳晓晶 摄“三十功名尘与土，八千里路云和月。”有人认为岳飞智勇双全，岳飞精神的核心是“精忠报国”。也有人认为，岳飞是个文化人，书法也不错。真实的岳飞，是怎样的？ 文武双全的岳飞 少年时代的岳飞朴实稳重，不爱多说话，很喜欢读书。读书之余，他还拜师学习骑射等，论武艺“一县无敌”。 有资料显示，从20岁起，他参与指挥了很多次战斗。岳飞爱护士卒，治军严明，常常亲自监督士兵训练，遇事不徇私情。 每到一地，岳飞往往亲自率领十数骑巡逻，检查军纪执行情况。他体恤民众，如果出现践踏农田等情况，都会按军法秉公处置。 在岳飞的统帅下，“岳家军”形成了极强的战斗力，所向披靡。对此，金兵发出了“撼山易，撼岳家军难”的哀叹。  资料图：图为展出的《岳武穆王武艺要论》 钱晨菲 摄据悉，岳家拳是国家级非物质文化遗产，由岳飞在无数征战中总结而成。此前，湖北省黄梅县岳氏家族在修复祖墓时发掘了《岳家拳法》，后再编命名为《岳武穆王武艺要论》。 岳飞十分好学，经常手不释卷。据记载，“其中心之所蕴，谋略之所施，往往见于表奏、题跋、吟咏之间。” 一首《满江红》抒发了万丈豪情：“怒发冲冠，凭栏处、潇潇雨歇。抬望眼，仰天长啸，壮怀激烈。”另外一首《小重山》则以细腻的笔触抒发了岳飞彼时的心境，感情真挚。 有说法称，他的书法师承苏体，水平很不错，旅途中还会自习小楷。  资料图：明人《岳飞像》轴。盛佳鹏 摄淡泊名利的一生 实际上，岳飞品格高尚，一直很受人尊敬。他平时生活俭朴、淡泊名利，严格教育自己的孩子，勉励儿子们要“自立勋劳”。 他对母亲十分孝顺。据说，当母亲生病的时候，岳飞会亲尝汤药，然后送到母亲床前，走路时都是轻手轻脚的，生怕打扰了母亲休息。 民间流传着很多关于岳飞的故事。比如人们熟悉的“岳母刺字”，故事中提到，岳母希望岳飞永远以报国为志，于是便在岳飞的背上用绣花针刺了“精忠报国”四个字。 不过，据记载，岳飞后背有“尽忠报国”四个字，深入肤理。有说法称，这四个字是后来才慢慢演变为“精忠报国”。 时光流逝，直到今天，人们依然尊敬岳飞，以各种不同形式纪念这位古代名将。(完)
