A multi-partisan activist group established to expose and resist US imperialism, corpora-terrorism, and the New World Order
Mutations, DNA damage from radiation seen in Fukushima forests – Greenpeace | 04 March 2016 | Conservation group Greenpeace warned on Friday that the environmental impact of the Fukushima nuclear crisis [which began] five years ago on nearby forests is just beginning to be seen and will remain a source of contamination for years to come…As the fifth anniversary of the disaster approaches, Greenpeace said signs of mutations in trees and DNA-damaged worms were beginning to appear, while “vast stocks of radiation” mean that forests cannot be decontaminated. In a report, Greenpeace cited “apparent increases in growth mutations of fir trees…heritable mutations in pale blue grass butterfly populations” as well as “DNA-damaged worms in highly contaminated areas”, it said.
