This will be a large scale international conference held at Pacifico Yokohama, with 10,000 participants, including over 100 international guests.
There will be plenary sessions, workshops, booths, exhibitions, film screenings and more.
The conference will gather voices from Japan and abroad on creating a nuclear power free world, with many hints from experts around the world.
This will be an opportunity to learn more about the reality of the Fukushima nuclear accident, and share wisdom and ideas on actions that can be taken. It is a chance for people to come together and discuss how we can protect future generations and create a more sustainable world.
Organized by a coalition of Japanese organizations with support from around the world, we still need your cooperation!
Many groups from Fukushima will also attend the conference, including parents and children.
In order for this project to happen and for humanitarian support, we are now calling for support.

It would be one of the remarkable conferences in the world history that may serve to save this world from destructive Nuclear Power.
ReplyDeleteI recently came across these atmpospheric simulations, produced an American independent organization, that indicate TEPCO vastly under-reported radionuclide emissions from the Fukushima Plant.

I’ve suspected for some time that the publicly released emissions data had been manipulated - If the models are correct I suppose this re enforces my hunch. Is there anyone here that can help us explain the implications of this model?
