This is all coming out in a new research report authored by <strong>Tomio Kawata<\/strong>, a fellow at the Nuclear Waste Management Organization of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/Japan.html\">Japan<\/a>. That same report also reveals that radiation from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/Fukushima.html\">Fukushima<\/a> has spread over 230 square miles.<\/p>\n<p>What we&#8217;re facing here, folks, is a Fukushima <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/dead_zone.html\">dead zone<\/a> where life will never return to its pre-Fukushima norms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Radiation levels similar to nuclear bomb test site<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/marina.swarpeca.es\/revista\/IMG\/pdf\/bloomberg.pdf\"><em>Bloomberg<\/em> is now reporting<\/a>: \u00ab<em>Tetsuya Terasawa said the radiation levels are in line with those found after a nuclear bomb test, which disperses plutonium. He declined to comment further<\/em>\u00ab. <\/p>\n<p>One <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/soil.html\">soil<\/a> sample taking 25 kilometers away from Fukushima showed Cesium-137 exceeding 5 million becquerels per square meter. This level, of course, makes it uninhabitable by humans, yet both the Japanese and U.S. governments continue to downplay the whole event, assuring their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/sheeple.html\">sheeple<\/a> that there&#8217;s nothing to worry about. By their logic, since all the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/people.html\">people<\/a> are sheeple anyway, as long as the area is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/safe.html\">safe<\/a> enough for sheep, it&#8217;s also safe enough for the human population.<\/p>\n<p>Both Japan and the U.S. have made huge efforts to raise the limits of allowed radiation exposure in foods and beverages. This was, of course, a deceitful tactic to try to reclassify radiation contamination as somehow magically being \u00ab<em>safe<\/em>\u00bb by redefining it.<\/p>\n<p>The outright lying and tactics of deception that have been used to try to downplay the severity of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/radioactive.html\">radioactive<\/a> fallout from Fukushima are nothing less than despicable.

I ask: How is 5 million becquerels per square meter not a problem?
