Tokyo radioactive?

Good morning, Denis,

I’m not worried…
On the basis of the local name you call, you will appear to use German press releases. Fukushima is called the reactor happiness in the German media, but in reality the city is 70km away from the air lines and is still unthinkable to visit today. I was there a few years ago to see the famous cherry blossom there.

In Japan, the town and power plant is named: the disaster in the Dai-ichi power plant in Futaba

To get back to your real question, the precipitation of the Cs-isotopes and thus the soil pollution was not affected by the Tokyo region, nothing has changed here. The import of fruit and fish from the regions concerned is regulated and subject to strict controls.

The best way to look at a map of good source, e.g. from the IAEA:

The places are also called correct.

The current live measurement values of the radiation values 1m above ground can be retrieved in the weather services around the clock in the global tissue.

An example from the proximity of my former residence in Germany and Tokyo today:

Andechs Rothenfeld Oberbayern: 0.084 μSv/h
Shinjuku Tokyo: 0.0355 μSv/h
The explanation should be simple, as Tokyo is at sea level, while Andechs is in the pre-Alpine country and therefore the background radiation should be higher.

Sources:

Bavarian State Office for the Environment
Tokyo Metropoliton Institute of Public Health

And don’t be shocked by higher-looking ground measurement values, which are specified in Bq/m2, while the air measurement values are specified in μSv/h.

Enjoy your vacation in Tokyo and don’t have any concerns…
