Hi Karen, good to hear from you, thanks for your thoughtfulness and the important information. :)

According to enenews.com, "Radiation fallout poses growing threat: 2,600+ cattle contaminated; More vegetables at unsafe levels — No centralized system, only voluntary tests July 25th, 2011 at 08:45 AM." The article states:

Threat to Japan's Food Chain Multiplies, Bloomberg, July 25, 2011:

Radiation fallout from the wrecked Fukushima nuclear plant poses a growing threat to Japan's food chain as unsafe levels of cesium found in beef on supermarket shelves were also detected in more vegetables and the ocean.

More than 2,600 cattle have been contaminated, Kyodo News reported July 23 [...]

Japan has no centralized system to check for radiation contamination of food, leaving local authorities and farmers conducting voluntary tests. Products including spinach, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, tea, milk, plums and fish have been found contaminated with cesium and iodine as far as 360 kilometers from Dai-Ichi. [...]


Have a happy and very successful trading day and week. :)

Bob

what are you all worried about ? The russians gifted us in the whole europe with an amount of radiations that is very higher than this, so think positive and forget it. You can do nothing in any case.

Hi Karen and MaryAM, according to an article from enenews.com, "'Shocking': Japanese Nuclear Emergency Director says local residents have no right to avoid radiation exposure -Gizmodo July 26th, 2011 at 07:52 AM:"

Japanese Nuclear Emergency Director: You Have No Right To A Radiation-Free Life, Gizmodo by Andrew Tarantola, July 26, 2011:

This footage, from a recent meeting of indignant Japanese citizens and feckless Japanese government types should be a little shocking. Sadly, it's just more of the same – ineptitude and inaction. By denying the right to avoiding radiation? OK, shocking. [...]

One Fukushima resident asks, "As other people do, people in Fukushima have the right to avoid the radiation exposure and live a healthy life, too. Don't you think so?"

A Nuclear Safety Commission Of Japan rep, when pushed to go beyond his canned non-answer, deadpans "I don't know if they have that right." The crowd reacts as you would expect when told they nuclear-threatened welfare isn't a concern. [...]
