Tokyo (CNN)Japan will start releasing more than 1 million metric tons of treated radioactive water from its destroyed Fukushima nuclear plant into the ocean in two years, the government said Tuesday -- a plan that faces opposition at home and has raised "grave concern" in neighboring countries.
The decision to release the wastewater comes more than a decade after the nuclear disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi plant in 2011, having been repeatedly delayed due to safety concerns and strong opposition from local fishermen still reeling from the fallout of the crisis.
Work to release the water into the Pacific Ocean will begin in about two years, and the whole process is expected to take decades, according to the Japanese government.

They really have to released those treated waters somewhere. Given how advance Japan is and how serious their government on public health, I doubt they will compromise their original plans and endanger their own people and the neighboring countries.

China worried with the health of its citizens: Because polluted air over metropolitan cities in China has no impact on human health...
