Japan exported about $600 million worth of aquatic products to China in 2022, making it the biggest market for Japanese exports, with Hong Kong second. Sales to China and Hong Kong accounted for 42% of all Japanese aquatic exports in 2022, according to government data.

      if you live there for a year it’s 44000 μSv, or 44 mSv

      44 x 3 = 132 which is GREATER than 100

        You can’t compare exposure over 3 years to a limit for one year.

        Radiation damage depends on time period of exposure.

          the graph on the map is μSv/h

          using the crosshairs shows 29.88 μSv/h at the waterfront by the plant

          that is 0.02988 μSv/h = 261.7488 mSv/a

          so not a place I’d want to get food from to say the least

            That’s on land. Where a whole bunch of various radionuclides have concentrated and remain fixed in place.

            This “wastewater release” that’s being discussed is the release of low-intensity tritium that will immediately dilute into the whole ocean. You’re comparing apples to moonrocks. Completely different things.
