Thousands of tons of dead fish washed up on a northern Japan beach several months after the release of radioactive water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant began. “The sardines and some mackerel washed ashore in Hakodate on Japan’s northernmost main island of Hokkaido on Thursday morning‚ creating a sliver blanket along a stretch of beach about a kilometer long‚” Japan Today reports. Thousands of tons of dead fish wash ashore in Japan – three months after the nation released treated Fukushima radioactive water into the sea https://t.co/ZqFUejoFtH pic.twitter.com/H5Th3f4iCG — Daily Mail Online (@MailOnline) December 8‚ 2023 The mysterious appearance of dead fish prompted speculation that the release of radioactive wastewater may be the culprit. Daily Mail reports: Officials could not come up with an explanation for the phenomenon‚ but Takashi Fujioka‚ a Hakodate Fisheries Research Institute researcher‚ posited a number of theories as to why the fish could have died en-masse. He said they may have become exhausted due to a lack of oxygen while moving in a densely packed school in shallow waters‚ or may have suddenly entered cold waters during their migration and succumbed to shock. There have been several recorded cases of similar phenomena springing up on several parts of Japan’s coastline. But this particular phenomenon occurred just three months after Japanese authorities began releasing treated radioactive water back into the sea – a move which angered its neighbours including China and South Korea. After Japan started releasing the wastewater into the sea‚ China announced it would ban Japanese seafood. The release heightened tensions in the region‚ with China calling the move a “selfish and irresponsible act.” Japan Releases Radioactive Wastewater Into Pacific Ocean Watch footage of the dead fish on Rumble via RT: From Japan Today: Local residents said they have never seen anything like it. Some gathered the fish to sell or eat. The town‚ in a notice posted on its website‚ urged residents not to consume the fish. Takashi Fujioka‚ a Hakodate Fisheries Research Institute researcher‚ said he has heard of similar phenomena before‚ but it was his first time to see it. He said the fish may have been chased by larger fish‚ become exhausted due to a lack of oxygen while moving in a densely packed school‚ and were washed up by the waves. The fish also may have suddenly entered cold waters during their migration‚ he said. The decomposing fish could lower oxygen levels in the water and affect the marine environment‚ he said. “We don’t know for sure under what circumstances these fish were washed up‚ so I do not recommend” eating them‚ Fujioka said.

Tucker Carlson commented on the developing rumors that he’s among the frontrunners to be President Trump’s running mate in the 2024 election. According to Semafor‚ the former Fox News host spoke about possibly being Trump’s vice president at the American Principles Project Foundation’s annual Christmas gala. Carlson gave a keynote speech about his “Christian faith‚ cheerfulness‚ and a country where ‘everything’s falling apart‚'” Semafor noted. When asked about an Axios report claiming Melania Trump was encouraging a Trump-Carlson ticket‚ the political commentator didn’t completely rule out the possibility. “God would have to yell at me very loud‚” Carlson said about being Trump’s running mate. Per Semafor: “I don’t know her‚ really‚” said the former Fox News host‚ who has raised millions of dollars to launch a new media company. “To go from being‚ like‚ a well-paid street corner schizophrenic to‚ like‚ a politician — it’s just kind of hard to envision.” But there were cheers when Carlson didn’t fully rule it out.

And Trump’s staff is convinced (correctly) that Carlson can’t be controlled. But the two men talk a lot‚” the outlet continued. Axios named other rumored VP candidates in its report: Trump talks openly to friends about several possibilities for running mate. Table stakes for these candidates is proving you believe the 2020 election was stolen and that former Vice President Mike Pence wimped out by allowing its certification. Those who’d be considered include J.D. Vance‚ the “Hillbilly Elegy” author and a MAGA favorite; Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders; Kari Lake‚ a leading election denier now running for U.S. Senate in Arizona‚ and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem. (Vance might prefer to remain in the Senate as “Trump’s hammer‚” we’re told.) Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.)‚ one of the few Black Republicans in Congress‚ has traveled with Trump on the campaign and would love to be V.P. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene‚ who lost her House committee assignments because she pushed baseless conspiracy theories‚ also gets mentioned.

The United States‚ through climate envoy John Kerry‚ pledged to reduce emissions from refrigerators and air conditioners. While Kerry travels the world on private jets‚ he wants to force the working class to give up basic amenities from their households. #FY John Kerry pledges to slash emissions from AC units‚ refrigerators to fight climate change https://t.co/fOjJmkcKMu — #LetsGoBrandon (@PittsTracy) December 5‚ 2023 “On Tuesday‚ 63 nations‚ including the United States‚ joined a pledge to cut down cooling-related emissions at the COP28 United Nations climate summit in Dubai‚ United Arab Emirates‚” The Epoch Times reports. “The Global Cooling Pledge requires countries to reduce such emissions by at least 68 percent by 2050 compared to 2022 levels‚” the outlet added. The Biden administration continues attacking household appliances‚ falsely and arrogantly claiming they’re responsible for ‘climate change.’ It’s nonsensical hysteria that only serves to reduce the standard of living for working-class Americans. The Epoch Times reports: The focus of cooling-related emissions would be on appliances like air conditioners and refrigerators. The pledge also proposes setting up minimum energy performance standards for appliances by 2030. “We want to lay out a pathway to reduce cooling-related emissions across all sectors but increase access to sustainable cooling‚” said Mr. Kerry‚ who joined representatives from other countries in the pledge‚ Reuters reported. “John Kerry lost his run for president &; has been trying to assert his revenge on everyday Americans ever since. If he gets his way‚ our cars‚ our appliances‚ and food will be gone. All from a man who flies around on his wife’s private jet‚” Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) said. John Kerry lost his run for president &; has been trying to assert his revenge on everyday Americans ever since. If he gets his way‚ our cars‚ our appliances‚ and food will be gone. All from a man who flies around on his wife's private jet.https://t.co/HZpFS9yX6m — Congressman Jeff Van Drew (@Congressman_JVD) December 6‚ 2023 Fox Business added: Emissions from both the refrigerants and the energy used in cooling now account for about 7% of global greenhouse gas emissions and are expected to triple by 2050 as temperatures continue to rise‚ according to the Clean Cooling Collaborative non-profit group. Kerry and others at the conference argue that as the planet warms‚ air-conditioner usage will ramp up‚ and therefore‚ so will emissions. Installed capacity is set to triple by mid-century‚ driven by climbing temperatures‚ growing populations and rising incomes‚ according to research released by the United Nations. “People will buy a very cheap air conditioner produced somewhere in Asia for 100 bucks and plug it in‚” said Jürgen Fischer‚ president of climate solutions at Danish multinational Danfoss which specializes in heating and cooling. “That will load the energy system a lot‚ and there will be a collapse. I don’t think it’s a good idea to allow these individual plug-ins anymore‚” he said. If John Kerry truly believes in his pledges‚ he can be the first individual to give up his refrigerator‚ air conditioner‚ and private jet trips.
