[Homework]SENEWS-2011-03-29
Japan's nuclear crisis may mean greater demand for imported food had less competetion for japanese products on world markets. But it also means thay japanese farmers and others who make an selfood have to worry about their future.Yasumichi Tonaka sells fish at one of Japan's busiest fish markets, but now there are fewer fish to sell.Fish supplies have been totally hold on. The radiation is from the Fukeshi nuclear power station that was damaged by the March 11th earthquake and sunami. The exdanter of the problems are still not clear.
Last Friday China joined number of other countries that have banned imports of food from the affected areas. Chinese media said the baned idons include milk products, fuite, vegetables and seafood. Singapore also has a banned in place. Restaurant manager Kanny Hong says some people are worried about eating Japanese food. Consumer confidence is, yes, somewhat shaken. I would say among some of Singapore popurlars but can't be help they think. The United States has also banned foods from radiation of affected areas. So has the Japanese government itself. Radioactive particuls traveling the wind and get absord into soil with the help of rain and snow. Then plantgroups take up the material and the plants become contaminated, animals eat the plant and their product become contaminated. Some kinds of radiation stay in the environment longer than others.
Matical physicist Gerald Pushberg is a radiation expert at the university of California Davice. Professor Pushberg says, We moving the top soil might make the land safe for use, but it depends on the depth of the radioactive material. And for now,he says,It is too early to take any measures. Experts say the ocean will help radiation in seawater, but the sunami also destroyed seafood, thankfishing boats and labeled plants. Charles Abengers studies the polotics of energy at the broking insititution in Washington,D.C. Mr. Abenger says the danger to raidiation can contaminate the food is overstated. Still the affected areas of northeastern Japan are deeply depended on the agriculture and fish. He says.So their economy could suffer the monster.
