good evening. another small wave day here in hawaii. paddled out to bowls today and it was almost not surfable. knee high and barely breaking… but you know what? it could be worst… the sun was out so it felt so good burning my back…. anyway, got to get a good night sleep because i’m surfing again tomorrow…. good night….
gosh, i spaced out and forgot about these photos. i took it a few months ago when i went to “Blue Moon” in hayama, japan for the Wavement Event. i didn’t know much about what was going on until that night. it goes something like this. they are building, or already built a power plant in aomori that will disperse radioactive chemicals in the open ocean through a pipe. a years worth of radiation discharge being pumped in a single day. it will be pumped 3 kilometers out into the ocean and will screw up the eco system. the currents will carry the contaminated water all the way down to chiba. that’s pretty screwed up. can’t surf or eat the fish from there anymore. what are they thinking? the bottom line is that this has to be stopped. i heard that if they get 100,000 names signed on the petition, by japanese law, they have to stop it. so come on surfers and get on it because i know there are more than 100,000 surfers in japan. and the deadline is in a couple of weeks. it’s for your future, your kids future, and for many more generations to come. it’s time to protest and speak out!!
pro surfers like ryu nakamura, david kinoshita, and yuji yoshikawa are heading the “Wavement” tour. i give these guys credit man. professional surfers speaking out for a great cause. keep up the good work boys…. and if some info i put on here is wrong, please tell me….. all i know is that something is wrong if the japanese government allow this. no matter what, chemicals in the ocean is wrong!!!! keep our ocean clean because without it, we all would die….
candles in the wind…..
as for now, they don’t have enough signatures to stop the project. they need more by february so PLEASE take time to sign the petition…..
