 The text discusses the impact of Fukushima's nuclear disaster on seafood. Due to radioactive contamination, fish caught near Fukushima have high levels of cesium-137 and strontium-90, making them unsafe for human consumption. The Japanese government has set a limit of 100 becquerels per kilogram for seafood, but some fish have been found with levels exceeding this limit. The incident has also led to a significant increase in radiation levels in seawater, which could potentially affect marine life.
