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.
如何激发非遗文化活力？代表委员建言：数字化转型、多元化传承****** 中新网太原1月15日电(记者 杨杰英)如何让厚重的历史变得更活泼有趣、时尚多元？让非遗文化更好地传承发展，绽放出时代光彩？正在进行的山西两会上，代表委员们纷纷建言献策，数字化转型、多元化传承、可持续发展成为激发山西非遗文化活力的“关键词”。 绛州鼓乐、晋南唢呐、皮影戏、面塑、剪纸……山西非遗家底丰厚，数量位居全国前列。近年来，山西在挖掘非遗项目内涵、讲好非遗背后故事、传承非遗项目基因等方面进行积极探索。但随着时代变革和现代科技的推陈出新，非遗文化的传承和保护面临的压力也日益剧增。 为此，山西省人大代表、民革山西省委会专职副主委李润建议，以山西优秀非遗项目为基础，建立数字化信息平台，让数字化技术为沉浸式展览和传承体验提供发展空间，更好地服务非物质文化和经济社会高质量发展汇聚力量。 “要使人能够随时随地了解非遗文化，推动非遗‘智能+’的传承。”李润建议，依托大数据技术，打造非遗数字馆；以人工智能技术为基础，实现民间传统文化资源的全实景高清展示，提升非遗文化项目的吸引力；出台措施鼓励非遗和数字化融合，推动山西非遗产业数字化转型，促进非遗文化和产业繁荣发展。 山西省政协委员、长治市襄垣县政协主席侯慧萍建议，非遗文化要扩展现有的传承方式，实现多种传承形式共同发展；要借鉴优秀非遗传承的成功案例，推进可持续发展；要创新非遗文创产品，让非遗更好地适应现代化的市场发展。 “传播是更好的传承。”侯慧萍认为，要创新传播方式，建设非遗文化传播链，扩大非遗的影响力。与此同时，可建立非遗新媒体传播数据模型，为分析传播形式提供数据支撑。 山西省人大代表、临县政协副主席、临县一中副校长冯立新与山西省人大代表、临县林业和草原发展中心正高级工程师张绳顺联名建议，在义务教育阶段学校开设非遗文化传承课程，能开阔学生视野，培养学生动手操作能力和爱好兴趣，同时还能让本土非遗文化更好地传承创新。 他们认为，从另一层面落实“双减”政策，实现“双减”和“非遗文化传承”双赢的培养目标，真正让非遗文化传承后继有人，代代相传。 “传承非遗文化，关键在于教育。”与上述两会代表一样，山西省人大代表、平遥古城景区管理有限公司讲解员张霄云也提出“在中小学校增设‘非遗课堂’”的建议。 她表示，教育部门可根据各级各类学校实际选择合适的非遗项目，增设“非遗课堂”，加大优秀传统文化的学习内容比重，同时支持代表性传承人参与学校授课。(完) 凤凰快三地图 |
