Is the way Yokosuka City decontaminates elementary schools really ok? Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, Grandpa, are you at ease with this? This year go watch when the city goes to check radiation at your child’s school. Raise your voices and take responsibility for your children’s safety. You CAN do it, it is your right!

Sorry, I can”t translate this, I am super tired right now. If anyone wants to remix and or translate, I give my permission. try please go ahead. After decontamination, the city officials did not want to label the bags of radioactive dirt before going to bury them on the school grounds, nor did they want me to check with my counter.

At that time, the city did not have any maps of where each school buried it’s contaminated dirt and we worried that if sometime in the future people were digging and found unmarked bags of radioactive dirt, they might use it in their garden like one school in Yokosuka did a few days before I recorded this. I realized that once the dirt is bagged, it can be concentrated and have a higher reading or it can be diluted with uncontaminated dirt so the readings will vary. In either case it is too high to be unmarked.
At the end of this video, the principal is trying to convince me that it is no big deal, radiation is natural and video games and TV are worse. I gave up reasoning with her and humored her to end the conversation.
