The amount of radiation in this wastewater, per liter, is equivalent to 100 bananas, or 378.5 bananas per gallon

Thank you. This actually gives perspective on radiation level better than Rads

That’s fine because one of the previous stories said that most of the fish caught are eaten by locals anyway

The primary concern is not about tritium (which doesn’t bioaccumulate) but about the other trace radioactive elements (which do bioaccumulate and are present in much greater quantities in the wastewater than they are in normal ocean water).
