Toshiso Kosako Resigns

Toshiso Kosako, a expert on radiation safety measures at Tokyo University, has resigned as an expert adviser to the Japanese government, May 1st. He took issue with the government set standards for children in the effected areas in Fukushima, children who may be affected by radiation in the coming year or longer. It is a shocking development for the government which will now have to defend the standards they have set against mounting pressure from local groups and international groups.
