thank you
what's up sunshine happy Friday let's
unleash our full potential take great
energy Good Vibes and lots of love into
this week and I make it a Feel Good
Friday remember what's within influences
what happens without I'm koi wire this
is CNN 10 and we start with fishermen in
Japan bracing after the government's
recent decision to gradually release
more than a million tons of filtered
Wastewater from a toxic nuclear power
plant into the Pacific Ocean the
government says it's necessary in the
Fukushima prefecture in 2011 a
disastrous earthquake and tsunami
followed by a nuclear meltdown
devastated this region of Japan
dangerous radioactive particles from the
Fukushima daiichi power plant
contaminated the environment as
radiation seeped into the sea leading
authorities to prohibit fishing in
several regions off the coast of Japan
for more than a year these areas had
previously supplied 50 percent of the
country's fish even after the ban was
lifted though Shima based fishermen were
mostly limited to collecting only
samples for radioactivity tests now more
than a decade later the ocean currents
have dispersed the contaminated water
and radioactivity is undetectable many
felt the nightmare was over but now some
fishermen who make a living in this
region say they feel betrayed and safe
or not dumping contaminated water into
the ocean will be devastating to their
reputations and livelihoods CNN
correspondent Mark Stewart has more
it's just after nine in the morning the
crew of this ship is back in Port at the
onahama fishing Village in Fukushima
Japan
is a third generation fisherman starting
at elementary school going on trips with
his father he told me he's happy on the
boat but he faces challenges his catch
is tested for radiation
that's because the port is around 40
miles from the Fukushima daiichi Nuclear
Power Plant
in 2011 there was a meltdown here after
a catastrophic earthquake and tsunami
for six years he couldn't fish told to
stay off the water
when he heard he couldn't fish he was
sad disappointed the ocean was off
limits
12 years later fishermen faced yet
another challenge treated Wastewater
that accumulated inside the plant will
soon be released into the ocean a threat
to their reputation and way of life
he says the decision made his blood boil
he wonders why the government made the
decision without the consent of the
fishermen at the time the Prime Minister
said it had to be done to decommission
the plant
we wanted to see the plant for ourselves
and we were allowed to after agreeing to
a strict safety protocol
this is as close as we can get to
reactors one through four the cleanup
work here will take at least 20 more
years
we also saw a lab where fish are tested
and lots of construction on the Water
Treatment Facility
let me show you the tanks behind me row
after row enough to fill about 500
Olympic swimming pools the treated water
will be let go gradually through a
tunnel that will take it offshore and
then eventually into the ocean according
to the plant's operator Tokyo Electric
Power Company the water has been treated
by taking out most of the radioactive
particles it's then diluted with
seawater taking it to a level much lower
than the World Health organization's
clean drinking water standard
an official from the utility told us he
recognizes there's distrust because of
the past but they're listening to
concerns he knows not everyone will
accept their plan but points out the
support they're getting from third
parties such as the international atomic
energy agency
still neighboring countries have
expressed concern is there a public
health risk by releasing this water
yes there is a public health risk It's
relatively low but the risk
exists I think that they should store
the water so that it decay is naturally
while other options were considered this
was seen as the best plan as tanks near
capacity
Japan's Pacific Coast has been a point
of Pride and promise for fishermen like
kinza Borough he says he doesn't know
what will happen but Hope's leaders
won't work against the fishermen
the water release is expected to begin
by the summer bringing with it more
years of anxiety and uncertainty
despite everything that has happened
Japan still views nuclear power as part
of its future it's seen as a way to be
energy independent it's viewed as a
Greener energy source and then on the
topic of safety the Prime Minister feels
the next generation of plants will be
safer
10 second trivia which of these U.S
cities was named after the original
capital of ancient Egypt Nashville
Memphis Knoxville or Chattanooga
most of the pyramids found near Cairo
are located in what was Memphis the
first capital of ancient Egypt
[Applause]
come on with me now so we can put the in
Memphis Tennessee for today's story
getting a 10 out of 10. now all of you
my dear friends you know by now that I
try to eat healthy most of the time I
love Fitness but sometimes I just feel
like Fitness entire Burger into my mouth
Dyer's burgers in Memphis they say that
they have the world famous burger and
the secret is floating it in Greece
that's more than a hundred years old go
figure
the grease is seasoned and filtered
every day but it still has the molecules
from 1912 into Greece
I'm Kendall Robertson the owner of world
famous tires on Bill in Memphis
Tennessee we're famous for our grease we
cook all our burgers in Greece we season
filter it all the time but it's still
the same original Grease
Elmer doc Dyer created Dyers in 1912
when it was on Cleveland Street in
Memphis The Story Goes that one day one
of his employees forgot to empty out the
frying pan the night before he opened up
and quickly got customers in and just
started cooking burgers in the pan they
had grease in it from the night before
and the customers were like this is the
best burger I've ever had in my life and
so Dyers was born
tires isn't like any other restaurants
we have no Grill we have no flat top we
just have a skillet full of grease my
name is lyric also known as the burger
God to show you guys how to make a diet
we ball the meat up and do a little ball
and we're going to use a wooden Mallet
and a steel spatula to flatten them out
the dispatch was covered with grease so
that way the Patty won't stick
all cooked the same there's no medium
medium Rarity of that they're all well
done and when they float they're done
see how it's floating right here every
bun comes with Mustard Pickle and onion
also black pepper at the bottom of it
that's the traditional diet Dyers has a
special seasoning but I cannot tell you
what that is and here comes the magic
Pond this is what everyone comes to love
to watch
as you can see we put the cheese on top
make sure it gets good and gooey and
melty gives it like a very buttery
flavor when you bite into it
and then it's your first iceberg
and you bite into it it's everything
you've ever wanted in a hamburger
it's very simple easy quick I've never
had anybody try Dyer's burger that
didn't truly love it
you all are the only buns for me we're
