NANJING, China, Oct. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Japan's recent announcement of its plan to release more than 1.2 million tons of radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean has triggered global environmental concerns.

The water is still reported to carry hazardous radioactive materials or radionuclides, which pose significant threat to ecosystems and human health globally.
