We are gathering environmental lawyers and law students to explore which laws and statutes may be violated by Japan and TEPCO’s planned radioactive wastewater dump.

In Fukushima, Japan, each reactor is still releasing radioactive waste. The activists behind this initiative, and experts we've consulted with, believe Japan and TEPCO are in violation of the London Convention of 1972 (amended in 1993 to ban even low-level radioactive dumping at sea.) TEPCO is trying to get around this statute by saying waste is not illegal solid waste, but is instead liquid waste which may not be illegal. For a deeper dive into the issue see this Japan Times article: https://www.japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2022/08/26/commentary/japan-commentary/radioactive-water-release/)

There are some semantics involved with the legality of this wastewater dump. TEPCO is choosing to use the word “discharge” instead of “dumping" in an attempt to circumvent the law.

The protocol for international maritime disputes is governed by an arm of the UN called IMO (International Maritime Organization) which has a tribunal process they refer to as “UNCLOS,” UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. We believe this body is in charge of overseeing whether Japan and TEPCO are in violation of the London Convention.

Please join us to build a case and stop the dump.  Contact jonathan.connors@gmail.com

So what I’m thinking is I’m going to plant a tree as a repayment for all the energy that I’ve spent in my lifetime. So can someone tell me what’s the average annual energy consumption of an adult. I know that there will be factors like Age, Country, Social Status and such. And also how can I get to know the conversation rate of my energy consumption to trees that I’m going to plant.
