輻射菜殺到香港 超標9倍 日本5縣農產今無限期禁入口

輻射菜殺到香港 超標9倍 日本5縣農產今無限期禁入口
 (明報)2011年3月24日 星期四

【明報專訊】日本    輻射    污染蔬菜差點流入本港,昨日兩批共3個樣本的日本空運抵港蘿蔔和菠菜,被驗出放射物質碘-131含量達260至1000貝克/公斤,超出本港安全標準1.6至9倍,全部來自鄰近東京    的千葉縣。港府緊急宣布,今日正午起無限期禁止日本千葉、櫪木、茨城、群馬及福島縣5個縣的奶類及蔬果等農產及相關加工、包裝食品入口。

被驗出輻射超標的兩個批次樣本,包括同一批次的一個白蘿蔔樣本、一個蘿蔔樣本,和另一批次的菠菜樣本,碘-131含量分別為每公斤260貝克、800貝克和1000貝克,較本港安全標準100貝克分別高出1.6倍、7倍和9倍,其中蘿蔔和菠菜樣本亦驗出含放射物質銫-134和銫-137,每公斤含量由8.5貝克至26貝克不等,但未有超標。

菠菜蘿蔔來自千葉縣

有關超標蔬菜並非產自福島及鄰近櫪木、茨城、群馬3個重災區縣,全部來自毗鄰東京的千葉縣,其中碘超標9倍的菠菜樣本,更獲日本當地的JAS有機認證,此認證制度由日本農林水產省制定。兩款蘿蔔樣本入口商是Tukiji Nakagai Hong Kong Sodairi Hogami Suisan Co. Ltd和菠菜樣本入口商Pronet(Asia) Ltd。

食物及衛生局副局長梁卓偉強調,上述輻射超標蔬菜全被扣檢沒有流入本港市面,若真的有人食用了,最嚴重者相等於照了10張X光肺片(見FAQ)。中大生命科學院副教授何永成則說,是次超標以倍計,反映污染非常嚴重,市民吃下肚後未必能即時排出體外,或會損害人體細胞,甚至令其他腸胃組織受破壞,市民切勿冒險進食。

昨空運抵港沒流出市面

政府將於今日刊憲,由即日中午12時起,禁止出售於3月11日(地震發生當日)或以後在上述5縣收穫、製造、加工或包裝的食品進口,分別為奶、奶類飲品、奶粉、蔬果。冷凍或冷藏野味肉類和家禽、禽蛋,以及鮮活、冷凍或冷藏海鮮,若有日本官方發出的衛生證明書,可獲豁免。當局解釋,禁令今天才生效,是給予業界時間作運貨準備。立法會議員李華明和王國興批評寬鬆做法不恰當,理應一刀切全面禁止有關地區所有農產來港。食物及衛生局強調,會繼續抽檢,且貨品有衛生證明書,雙重保障。

議員批太遲生效不恰當

對於福島對開海水輻射污染,天文台    強調當地水流向東,不會流入本港,當局與專家研究後,亦確認本港漁民不會到有關水域捕魚。漁護署昨日到本港5個漁場抽魚化驗輻射,結果正常。至於其他日本進口的加工食品,如餅乾、糖果、蛋糕和冰凍甜點,以及以水和植物製造的日本進口消費品,包括洗頭水、護髮素、皂液、牙膏、化妝品等,港府未有發現輻射超標。

日本厚生勞動省昨宣布,福島縣露天栽種的西蘭花(青花菜)、椰菜等11種蔬菜檢測到輻射物質,美國    隨即宣布,即時停止進口福島、茨城、櫪木、群馬4縣生產的牛奶、奶製品、新鮮蔬果;韓國也表示「積極」考慮禁止入口日本食品。法國    除了自行檢測日本進口食品,也呼籲歐盟對日本輸入歐陸的新鮮食品,實施「系統管制」,防範核污染,一些入口商已停止輸入日本食品,預料禁止入口日本食品的國家將陸續增加。

武漢男搶萬三斤鹽後悔莫及

武漢男搶萬三斤鹽後悔莫及
 (明報)2011年3月23日 星期三

武漢一名男子「盲搶鹽」的嚴重程度堪稱病入高肓,正煩惱如何處理幾天前高價搶購的13000斤食鹽。

對於6天前花高價買下的13000斤食鹽,令武昌熊家嘴的郭先生後悔不已:「退不掉,賣不得,運不走,難道要自己慢慢吃完?」

Radiation Detector 

《武漢晚報》報道,郭先生租住在熊家嘴一間20多平方米的出租屋內,260大包食用碘鹽堆起1米多高,佔去房間大半。如果他一人吃,要吃3561年才吃完。

郭先生來自甘肅    蘭州,老家人和親戚開了三間大餐館,日用鹽量幾十斤。

3月17日上午,家人突然來電話,稱當地食鹽已賣到8元一斤,還斷了貨,「可能會有長達半年的鹽荒」。

郭先生上街一看,大小超市食鹽均遭搶購。他趕緊去多家調味市場打聽,「原價65元50斤的食鹽,已賣到了95元到120元」,郭先生當即大肆購入13000斤,加上運費共花去2.7萬元,約合每斤2元、每包100元。

「商戶出車送鹽回家,足足拖了3輛貨車」。郭先生回家打開電視,發現政府部門已開始澄清「謠鹽」,次日碘鹽價格一路走低,很快跌破他的購入價。

郭先生急了,「這大批鹽怎處理?」想運回家,可物流公司說沒有經營許可證不能托運;想退貨,可購鹽時未拿票據,要退貨是難上加難。

目前,郭先生正設法聯繫買主,想以每包65元的市價轉讓,並負責送貨上門,即使成功,最終也要虧近萬元。

湖北省鹽務管理局武漢分局鹽政科邵科長表示,可出面協調賣鹽商戶或當地鹽業公司回收    這批食鹽,盡量減少郭先生的損失。

Rickets is back as a new "affluence disease"
Rickets is a bone-softening disease caused by vitamin D deficiency. 
The body produces at least 80 percent of its vitamin D upon exposure to sunlight.
But now vitamin D deficiency has become a sign of affluence. Children are spending more and more time indoors, and parents concerned about skin cancer are increasingly applying more and more powerful sunscreens to their kids before letting them go outside. As many as 70 percent of all British children may now suffer from vitamin D deficiency, and one in 1,000 has been diagnosed with rickets.

日本奶粉應付內需供港或減

日本奶粉應付內需供港或減
 (明報)2011年3月22日 星期二

代理日本    奶粉的業界人士稱,由於日本方面可能需要預留奶粉應付內需,所以未來對香港的供應可能會減少。

食物及衛生局常任秘書長黎陳芷娟,跟多個多個主要食品及奶粉供應商、入口商及零售商會面,了解日本地震及核事故對供港食品的影響,共商如何確保供應維持充足穩定。

黎陳芷娟稱,本港的食品進口來源多元化,日本食品只佔本港食品總進口量的一小部分,日本災情對香港整體食物供應影響不大,市民無須擔心。由於日本方面要照顧災後糧食的內需,個別日本食品供應或有機會出現短缺。

經營代理日本奶粉的業界人士表示,現市面上出售的日本奶粉生產日期均為核事故之前。日本方面向本港業界表示由於可能有需要預留奶粉應付內需,所以未來對香港的供應可能會減少。

至於其他外國入口奶粉方面,各業界代表均表示供應充裕。如家長有需要由日本奶粉轉換至其他外國牌子,各供應商均有計劃向家長提供輔導。各大牌子均有提供客戶熱線或訂購及送貨服務。

另外,黎陳芷娟稱,由於糧油雜貨的供應主要是內地,目前及未來供應均十分充裕。早前的搶購食鹽情況,只屬個別事件,各有關方面均即時補貨,加上當局澄清食鹽無助預防輻射    ,事件很快平息。

女川6324人倖存 萬人小鎮搶通 傳出振奮消息

女川6324人倖存 萬人小鎮搶通 傳出振奮消息
2011/03/22
蘋果日報

【李寧怡╱綜合外電報導】日本東北大地震後,民眾自制守序與容忍,舉世讚嘆,但隨災區情況不見改善,災民忍耐程度也到了極限,除了發生多起偷竊與打劫案件,甚至傳出有女性遭性侵,人與人之間的信任,幾已耗損殆盡。在宮城、岩手、福島等縣,災民身心狀況日益惡化,有人已瀕臨崩潰邊緣。

不過,昨天也傳出令人振奮的消息。日本東北《河北新報》報導,在宮城縣重災區女川町,原本聯外道路及通訊皆中斷,搜救人員無法進入,上周五一條公路搶通後,發現當地約1萬人口中,有6324人倖存。

挨餓受凍廁所髒臭

日本《每日新聞》記者訪問宮城、岩手、福島等重災區避難所負責人,發現各地災民身心狀況不斷惡化,由於沒暖氣、衛生條件差加上藥物不足,罹患流感、腹瀉的人數大增;廁所髒臭加上坐式馬桶不足,讓年長者及殘障人士使用困難。

《朝日新聞》則報導,岩手縣大槌町因避難所空間不足,約有30人連日來以車為家,一家老小全擠在空間狹小的車裡。因汽油短缺,不能發動車輛,只能在嚴寒中度過。

英國《衛報》報導,在宮城縣重災區石卷市,災民已忍受一個多星期沒有水、電、瓦斯的日子,不但挨餓受凍,避難所內廁所也髒臭到極點,愛乾淨的日本人尤其難忍受。當地市府發言人佐藤義則(音譯)表示,在1、2公里外的其他地區,水電都已恢復供應,但官方表示石卷市至少要3周後才有水電可用。

邊帶頭打氣邊掉淚

石卷市有16萬人,現在至少4分之1無家可歸,約千人證實喪生。為提振士氣,佐藤發起「石卷加油」運動,每天發布新聞讓災民掌握現況。但當他揮拳帶大家喊口號時,自己卻眼中泛淚。他坦承,想看到石卷市狀況改善,災民已望眼欲穿。

Jewellery

在石卷市一間收容約500人的小學,災後3天都沒飲水和食物,8天後災民才吃到一頓熱食,提供者卻是一個露營社團。

災區驚爆打劫性侵

現在運到這裡的食物增加了,但須供應給附近共2300名住戶。帶3歲女兒在此避難的松見枝(音譯)說:「我看過有人為了搶一片餅乾打架。」

當夜幕降臨,漆黑之中恐懼的氣氛也開始籠罩,因為到受損民宅中偷竊打劫的事件時有所聞。由於部分民眾還住在殘破家園裡,傳出有搶匪遭屋主刺傷,還發生數起性侵案。

理髮師鈴木勝弘(音譯)就在回去收拾家園時,遇竊賊潛入將提款卡等偷走逃逸。鈴木說:「我對人的信任就像眼前的景物一樣,已破壞殆盡。」

災民情緒瀕臨崩潰

不過,鈴木說,由於他在當地生長,附近的人全都熟識,相信竊賊是外地人。這種鄰里間的情誼,是災後支撐災民得以維持秩序的力量,但隨時間過去,情況不見好轉,這樣的情誼也逐漸被侵蝕。佐藤說:「因為大家壓力太大,又餓又沮喪。」

日本地震災情統計

★死亡:8805人

★失蹤:1萬3262人

★疏散:34萬人暫居避難所

★停電:22萬0871戶

★停水:至少88萬戶,涵蓋11縣

★房屋受損:至少11萬7274棟,其中1萬4407棟全毀

★經濟損失:3.6兆~7兆元台幣(世界銀行估計)

★各地災情:

◎宮城縣警察局長稱,該縣死亡恐超過1萬5千人

◎宮城縣石卷市稱最終失蹤人數可能破萬人

◎福島縣第一核電廠各反應爐皆已通電,盼能恢復冷卻系統

◎宮城縣、岩手縣大批避難所沒電、沒水、缺藥物及食物

WHO警告日本輻射污染擴大/福島等4縣 葉菜牛奶禁出貨

WHO警告日本輻射污染擴大/福島等4縣 葉菜牛奶禁出貨
2011/03/22
自由

〔編譯林翠儀、羅倩宜/綜合外電報導〕日本福島第一核電廠核災危機發生後,日本部分地區農產品陸續驗出輻射物質,世界衛生組織(WHO)二十一日表示,日本食品受輻射污染問題比預期的還要嚴重。對此,日本政府也在二十一日下令禁止福島等四縣的菠菜、油菜及福島牛乳出貨。亞洲鄰國也為之恐慌,紛紛加強查驗或暫緩進口日本食品。

世衛西太平洋辦公室發言人柯丁利二十一日接受透路訪問時表示,世衛初期研判輻射問題應僅限於福島核電廠二十到三十公里範圍內,但明顯可見,污染情況比原先預期的嚴重。

日本近日陸續從核災區附近數縣驗出葉菜類與牛乳輻射量超標情況,其中茨城縣古河各市生產的菠菜超過標準值二十七倍。日本政府的原子能災害對策總部二十一日依據「原子能災害特別對策法」,禁止福島、茨城、?木和群馬四縣的菠菜和油菜出貨,福島縣也被要求暫緩牛乳的出貨。至於被停止出貨農家的損失,官房長官枝野幸男表示,政府將負起責任要求東京電力公司賠償。

東京等九都縣 自來水也受污染

另外,上述四縣以外其他地區也有飲用水及農產品遭到輻射污染的狀況。飲用水部分,目前已知文部科學省進行的檢測中,在?木和東京檢測到放射性碘和銫,群馬、埼玉、千葉、神奈川、新潟檢測到放射性碘。福島和茨城在之前的自行調查中已檢測出輻射物質,全國共計在九都縣的自來水中檢測出放射性物質,但據稱均不會影響人體健康。

另一方面,厚生勞動省日前也在福島縣飯館村的自來水中驗出每公斤九六五貝克的放射性碘,為規定上限每公斤三百貝克的三倍。福島縣已要求飯館村民暫時不要飲用自來水。

另外,千葉縣旭市的山茼蒿二十一日也被驗出放射性碘超標一倍,旭市是千葉縣農產品主要出產地,盛產蘿蔔、高麗菜、小黃瓜和山茼蒿,該市三十項農產品正在檢測中,在二十二日全部檢驗結果出爐前已被要求暫停出貨。

南韓零售業暫停進口日本食品

儘管日本表示食品輻射尚不足以為害,不過亞洲鄰國已掀起一陣排拒日貨的恐慌反應。日本朝日啤酒原訂四月底推出十四款新的啤酒及軟性飲料,目前因輻射污染已暫緩;東洋水產也延後推出新款的咖哩口味杯麵。

南韓農林水產食品部二十一日表示,日本農漁產品的檢驗範圍將擴大至乾燥及加工食品,檢驗項目包括銫134、銫137及碘131,南韓各大零售業者也暫停進口日本食品;香港政府自三月十二日開始對日本食品全面檢驗,香格里拉亞洲旅館集團等飯店上週已全面暫停使用日本食材,週一香港東方文華酒店也跟進。

Computers Hardware

亞洲部分飯店停用日本生鮮食材

日本食品遭輻射污染,餐飲業也在尋求替代來源。例如亞洲地區的希爾頓酒店停止採用日本生鮮食材後,開始改向菲律賓、印尼、蘇格蘭及澳洲等國採購,其中尤以澳洲牛肉對日本和牛的替代性最高。

日本食品進口量遠大於出口,二○○九年食品進口總值達五三五億美元,出口僅三十二.七億美元,食品出口有七成是銷往香港、美國、中國、台灣及南韓,因此影響最大的仍為該國國內市場。以稻米為例,日本去年稻米產量八五○萬公噸,出口僅占二%。震災最嚴重的六個縣稻米產量約占全日本三成。

日本災區傳出失控!英國《衛報》報導,在宮城縣重災區石卷市,災民已忍受一個多星期沒有水、電、瓦斯的日子,有災民陷入飢餓恐懼,尖叫著搶食物,超市也出現竊賊闖入行竊,甚至傳出有婦女遭受性侵害,但是當地警方根本無暇管理,無法證實該消息。理髮師鈴木勝弘(音譯)就在回去收拾家園時,遇竊賊潛入將提款卡等偷走逃逸。鈴木說:「我對人的信任就像眼前的景物一樣,已破壞殆盡。」

Anti-nuclear demonstrations held across Spain

Anti-nuclear demonstrations held across Spain
(AFP) – 3/18/2011

MADRID — Hundreds of people took part in protests held across Spain Thursday to demand the closure of the country's six nuclear power stations after Japan's nuclear accident following a massive earthquake.

Demonstrators, many wearing masks or holding signs that read "No nuclear power, neither here nor in Japan", gathered in small groups in more than 30 cities, including Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and Valencia.

The protests were organised by Greenpeace and Spanish environmental umbrella group Ecologists in Action, who want the government to gradually close the country's six nuclear power plants by 2020.

They are especially concerned over two nuclear plants -- one at Garona in the north and another at Cofrentes in the east -- which use the same boiling water reactor design as the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan that is facing a meltdown.
"What is happening in Japan shows that what is improbable ends up happening," Ecologists in Action spokesman Francisco Castejon said at the protest in Madrid, which drew around 200 people.

Castejon said renewable energy sources like wind and solar power could make up for the loss of the electricity that is currently produced at Spain's six nuclear power plants.

"Around 40 percent of the electricity which we consume comes from renewables, double the energy that comes from nuclear. Since 2004 we have exported electricity to all our neighbours," he said.

The Spanish government said Wednesday it will review security measures at all its nuclear power plants following the massive earthquake and tsunami that devastated northeast Japan and crippled the Fukushima nuclear power station, raising the risk of uncontrolled radiation.

Spain's Socialist Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero vowed during general elections in 2004 and 2008 to gradually phase out nuclear power when the lifespan of the country's six nuclear plants expired.
But he has since softened his stance, and in July 2009 the government said it would extend the operating licence for the Garona plant for another two years until July 2013.

The government extended the life of the plant at Cofrentes by a decade on March 10, a day before the massive earthquake hit Japan.

Spain has taken a lead in renewable energy in recent years, becoming one of the world's biggest producers of electricity from wind and solar power, as it seeks to cut its oil dependence and reduce its greenhouse gas emissions.
