中新网评：处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事******
中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称，将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对，企图将核污水“一倒了之”，把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。
资料图：日本福岛第一核电站。2011年，福岛核电站事故发生后，大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋，对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害，数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日，作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。
日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由，在2021年4月13日，正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多，日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。
日本政府辩称，这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全，甚至“可以喝”，这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。
事实上，经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质，核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收，长期来看，将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁，最终危害人类健康。
因此，核污水排海计划推出后，遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示，福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中，约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场，反对该计划。
日本政府认为，核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案，但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海，核污水会随着洋流流动，其影响势必会跨越国界，危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。
《韩国经济新闻》发文称，相关研究认为，福岛核污水如果排放入海，约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域，该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。
德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告，若日本将所有核污水排入海中，不到半年，整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁，包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。
日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国，有义务保护海洋环境。然而，在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上，日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。
国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估，但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论，并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下，日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设，这是极不负责任的行为。
太平洋不是日本的下水道，日本必须正视各方合理关切，在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后，制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远，若只顾眼前，执意将核污水排放入海，不仅其自身，周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单，其后果必将会危害数代人。
Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business
By John Lee
(ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year.
Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business.
The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year.
The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public.
In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run.
Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public.
The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution.
The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community.
The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses.
According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan.
As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment.
However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact.
Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad.
The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies.
If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
什么是礼乐文化？礼以修身，乐以化心****** 中新网12月20日电 近日，清华大学首批文科资深教授、《百家讲坛》名师彭林举行了一场直播连线，带领读者品读自己的作品《礼乐中国》，体会博大精深的礼乐文化。 直播中，彭林教授首先讲述了这本书的写作缘起。受电视剧等影响，现在一提到礼乐，有的人认为是“封建遗存”，有的人联想到的是磕头、作揖，其实这些都是对礼乐文化的误解和片面解读。  《礼乐中国》。图片来源：浙江文艺出版社供图作为历史学者，彭林多年来一直致力于传播礼乐文化。他希望通过礼乐，树立国人的文化自尊、文化自觉和文化自律。 接着，彭林阐释了“礼”和“乐”的内涵和关联。 《礼记》说：“礼也者，理也。” 礼，是贯穿万物之理的规范。理无处不在，礼亦无处不在。鞠躬、作揖这些外在形式只是礼的细枝末节。 《管子·牧民》说：“仓廪实而知礼节，衣食足而知荣辱。” 物质生活达到一定的水平，不愁吃穿了，就会追求精神层面的发展，讲究礼节，明辨荣辱，使自己的生活更有品质。 中国文化以“人”为中心，以人如何通过修身，从一个动物学意义上的人成长为道德意义上的完人，作为人生的必修课。礼是做人的规范，所以这一过程，是借由学礼、践行礼来完成的。 和“礼”一样，“乐”也是一个民族的文明发展到一定程度的产物。中国古人将今人所说的“音乐”，拆分为由低到高的三个层次，分别称之为声、音、乐。其中“乐”是最高层次，具有道德教化的功能，正所谓“德音之谓乐”。 儒家修身的内容涉及日常生活的各个方面，其大要则包括内与外两个方面。所谓内，是懂得用思想纯正、风格典雅、中正平和，具有道德教化作用的雅乐陶冶心性，养心怡情。所谓外，是懂得用礼约束自己的行为，消除戾气，拒绝粗俗，懂得遵守社会秩序，尊重他人，与人为善，谈吐典雅，涵养德性，变化气质。  图片来源：浙江文艺出版社供图礼以修身，乐以化心。礼乐双修，就是内外兼修。“礼乐皆得，谓之有德”，彬彬然有君子之风。 最后，彭林分享了古今两个礼乐小故事，提出没有经过礼乐熏陶的人生，是不完美的人生。 据介绍，《礼乐中国》兼具通俗性与专业性，全书精选《礼记》《论语》《左传》等典籍中有关礼乐文化的格言名句100余句，每句礼乐格言下皆有译注和析义。 此外，书中还配有许多与礼乐文化相关的图片，进一步丰富了全书的内容。彩插中的礼仪复原图实属珍贵，由彭林教授独家授权，来源于其课题项目。根据《周礼》《仪礼》《礼记》等古籍中对于古代礼仪和音乐的文字记述，彭林教授团队对古代礼仪进行了复原，如《周代婚礼夫妇对食礼仪复原图》等。(完)
