Japan has been given the okay by UN to dump radioactive waste water into the ocean, but nearby countries are protesting that its unsafe. Is it unsafe? Is it safe?

It’s fine. The ocean is really big, water is an excellent insulator for radiation, and it’s not *that* radioactive.
This doesn’t even weigh on the scales of things we’re doing that are destroying the ocean. Rising temperature and increasing amounts of acidity are infinitely worse.
