Green tea made by 5 Shizuoka plants found contaminated with radiation:
the shizuoka government asked 5 tea manufacturing plants to stop shipping green tea because they found radioactive cesium in excess of the legal limit. what do i think? well, isn’t shizuoka over 400 kilometers away from fukushima? isn’t shizuoka past chiba, tokyo, and shonan? i think the government should step up testing foods in other prefectures too because eating radioactive foods can’t be good for the health. us older people are ok. i’m just worried about the kids.

Japan’s richest man challenges nuclear future with nationwide solar plans:
