Tepco made Fukushima plant into a "machine for generating radioactive water . Much more than 300 tons of contaminated water a day entering Pacific from Fukushima Data's been "cooked" all along , Japan Gov't - 600 tons of groundwater enters ocean each day at plant — NYTimes — It's polluting North Asia — Oceans have no boundary . 60 billion becquerels of strontium and cesium claimed to be flowing to 'outer ocean' each day .
Scientists measured 2,000 trillion becquerels of Cs-137 in one study area . Study Up to 900 trillion becquerels of strontium-90 into ocean from Fukushima plant — "Direct discharges of cooling water" . Gov't, TEPCO claim radiation releases down to 200 million becquerels per hour, 80% lower than July — Then admit it's just an estimate "because the exact emission levels cannot be accurately measured"
