Japan To Dump Wastewater From Wrecked Fukushima Nuclear Plant Into Pacific Ocean

In Tokyo, people protest against a decision to start releasing into the ocean massive amounts of treated wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear plant damaged in a 2011 quake and tsunami.

Despite Tokyo's assurances that the move will not pose a threat to people or the environment, the decision has been roundly criticized by local fishermen, environmental groups and Japan's neighbors.
