(Scroll down for Japanese/日本語呼びかけは英語の下)
Join us to march in London, to mark the 2nd anniversary of the ongoing Fukushima disaster, in international solidarity with people in Japan and for a nuclear-free world.
We, Japanese expats and UK citizens, are speaking with one voice as world citizens. We want all the governments to abolish nuclear power generation, to prevent the further release and spread of radioactive materials, to implement policies to protect people’s health and lives and to uphold citizens’ rights to engage in social activities and free speech.
We are deeply concerned that radioactive contamination from the nuclear catastrophe at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant that started on March 11 2011, has been spreading across Japan.
The nuclear tragedies in Chernobyl and Fukushima have taught us that despite the guise of ‘peaceful use’, the destruction caused by a nuclear power disaster would be similar to nuclear war. Japan is the most earthquake prone country in the world and, currently, is in a very active seismic phase.
Nuclear catastrophe in Japan would lead to long-term worldwide radioactive contamination. There is no safe method to dispose of nuclear waste. Using nuclear power means passing a burden to our children and their descendants. In addition, throughout the nuclear fuel cycle from uranium mining to decommission and waste storage, nuclear energy relies heavily on the sacrifice of workers who are exposed to radiation as they carry out these tasks. Given the deadly long-term toxicity of radiation released to the environment through use of nuclear energy, it must be said that nuclear power is both extremely dangerous and irresponsible. Nuclear power is not welcome in Japan, in the UK, and anywhere in the world.
Japanese Against Nuclear, Kick nuclear and CND are calling all the people in the UK to join the march, vigil, and the public meeting explained below:

フクシマを知るわたしたちだからこそ、原発の恐ろしさ、原発政策の誤ちを世界に伝えたい
あの日から二年。
時間と距離の遠さは忘却を誘います。忘れたいほど恐ろしい出来事が起こってしまったのです。
でも本当は知っています‐フクシマはまだ終わっていないこと。
3月9日(土)、福島原発事故2周年にあたり、日本の現状を伝え、脱原発の必要性を解き、全世界の原発を止めるため、日本大使館と国会議事堂を結ぶ中心エリアで大掛かりなデモを計画しています。又、震災2周年目にあたる11日(月)夕刻には祈祷のキャンドルサービスを行う予定です。
わたしたちJapanese Against Nuclear UKは、毎週金曜日、日本大使館前と東電ロンドンオフィス前で抗議行動を続けてきました。また、親睦会・学習会を開催したり、英国の環境問題を訴える市民団体や反核・反原発の団体と交流したり、意見交換を行ってきました。
今回のロンドンでの二周年記念イベントは、日本をはじめ、欧州各地で行われるさまざまな脱原発行事と連帯し、フクシマの被害は継続中であることを思い出させ、世界に向けて反原発・脱原発を訴えるための行動です。
日本では昨年末に政権が変わって、「原発ゼロ」の動きが危うくなっています。
ここ英国でも、八基もの原発が建てられようとしています。
フクシマを知るわたしたちだからこそ、警告する力を持っているはずです。
あなたも、わたしたちといっしょに、立ち上がって声をあげましょう。
