 94709\n \n\nChieko Shiina, Anti-Nuke Activist in 
 Japan\nhttp://nonukesaction.wordpress.com\n \nThe contamination of the 
 people of Fukushima and Japan continues. Children and families are getting 
 sick. There is a growing epidemic of thyroid cysts and surgeries. The 
 statistics are being covered up by the Japanese government. Additionally, 
 Shunichi Tanaka, the chairman of the Nuclear Regulation Authority is 
 preparing to release thousands of tons of contaminated radioactive water 
 into the Pacific ocean. 
 \nhttp://ajw.asahi.com/article/0311disaster/fukushima/AJ201412130042\nThis 
 will be lethal to life in the oceans! It will reach California and the 
 entire Pacific rim. The Abe government in power is continuing to tell the 
 Japanese people that they can "overcome" radiation, and that they can 
 de-contaminate Fukushima. Chieko Shiina is an anti-nuclear activist in 
 Fukushima who has been fighting to get emergency healthcare to the 
 residents. They are organizing against the restart of Japan's remaining 50 
 nuclear plants, which the Abe government wants to restart.\n \nThe SF Bay 
 Area “No Nukes Action Committee” has been campaigning to protect the 
 people of Fukushima and Japan, and to keep other Japanese nuclear plants 
 closed. The Committee also opposes all nuclear plants, including the PG&E 
 operated Diablo Canyon nuclear plant on the Pacific coast over earthquake 
 faults and near San Louis Obispo. They have monthly rallies to speak-out  
 at the Japanese Consulate in San Francisco on the 11th of every month at 
 3:00 pm. The consulate is located at 275 Battery St/California St., San 
 Francisco, near the Embarcadero BART Station. Next action is on Sunday, 
 January 11, 2015. For more information: 510-495-5952.\n \nWheel-chair
