Fukushima: Japan announces it will dump contaminated water into sea

[boxesofkittens]

From U.N.'s website:

While Japan said that the tritium levels are very low and do not pose a threat to human health, scientists warn that in the water, the isotope organically binds to other molecules, moving up the food chain affecting plants and fish and humans.

I assume the U.N., after some members and people's condemnation of the action, might be pushing their own agenda but I wonder who is right here. What they are seeing is plausible to me. Plus I have read somewhere that if a leak happened right now at Fukushima where they are storing the contaminated water the effects would be a lot worse.
