小年快到了,33岁的杨迪身穿工装、腰挎电工包,拎着米、面、油等年货,穿行在沈阳市铁西区“盲人大院”的几栋居民楼之间。
刚爬上7楼,还没等他腾出手敲门,屋里就传来熟悉的声音,“是小杨迪吧。”因为来的次数多,76岁的盲人阿姨邱淑华光凭脚步声就能“认出”他,“这几天我正念叨你呢,你就来了!”

“盲人大院”是民政福利企业原沈阳市互感器厂盲人职工的宿舍,20世纪60年代曾有70余户盲人住在这里。他们虽然眼睛看不见,可日子总是光亮的。杨迪是国网沈阳供电公司郭家供电营业所第14任所长,61年来,郭家供电营业所一直守护着这里,“电亲戚”们定期上门维护线路、维修电器、打扫卫生,为盲人们点亮了一盏盏“心灯”。
走进邱淑华家,杨迪一放下年货,就开启了“电工模式”。他顺着墙上的线路,从电箱、电线到各类电器,不放过一个细节地检查。“刮风下雨必到、下雪必到、逢年过节必到,这是老所长定下的规矩。”杨迪说,“这个习惯保持了60余年,我们要把它延续下去。”

“盲人大院”和郭家供电营业所的故事开始于1962年。那时,“盲人大院”还是平房,盲人们共用一块电表,算起电费不免发生口角。抄表员刘继增体谅盲人们的难处,他挨家挨户把电费算清楚,“一户不落,一分不差”。
盲人们打心眼里佩服这个实在人,也对他产生了依赖。郭家供电营业所了解情况后,干脆让每一任抄表员担任联络员,成了盲人们的“电亲戚”。
几十年来,“盲人大院”的“电亲戚”越来越多,由一代代抄表员,扩大为郭家所的全体员工。国网沈阳供电公司还专门组建了“郭家爱心团队”,盲人们外出办事他们陪同,盲人们缺啥要啥他们代购,盲人们生病受伤他们照料……从最初的排忧解难到而今的呵护陪伴,82岁的佟德禄说:“远亲不如近邻,供电所离得近,有大事小情我们一个电话,‘电亲戚’们保准就会出现在身边。”
从邱淑华家出来,杨迪和爱心团队成员来到“盲人大院”的盲人活动室。墙壁上写有“2023年新春慰问活动”的红色横幅,让这里“年味儿”十足。一名志愿者掏出剪刀、推子,凭借老手艺为盲人们理发。几名盲人坐在长长的条凳上,你一言我一语地回忆他们与“电亲戚”的往事,怎么也唠不完。
“我印象最深的是一个三伏天,有一家下水道堵了,咱所的许刚一只手拿铁钩,另一只手戴上手套伸到便池里面,硬生生给‘掏’通了。”73岁的矫淑芬说。
“每年冬天一下大雪,我们还在睡梦中,一听到外面哗啦啦的铁锹声,就知道是‘电亲戚’们扫雪来了。”75岁的盲人大爷肖德仁说,不管雪下多厚,从单元门出来肯定会有一条道;顺着这条道往外走,指定就能到达小区门口……
61年间,“盲人大院”从平房变成楼房,盲人住户从70余户减少至30余户,从年轻力壮变成垂垂老者。“电亲戚”虽然换了一茬又一茬,但每一批都随叫随到,默默守护在盲人邻居身边。

下午4点左右,活动室的“2023年新春慰问活动”临近尾声。杨迪像往常一样,紧紧牵着邱淑华的手送她回家。独居的邱淑华说,她现在生活有保障,“有了你们这些亲戚来走动走动,就能过个好年,对新的一年充满希望。”
中新网评:处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事****** 中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称,将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对,企图将核污水“一倒了之”,把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。 资料图:日本福岛第一核电站。2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。 日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。 日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。 事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。 因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。 日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。 《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。 德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。 日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。 国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。 太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。 Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business By John Lee (ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year. Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business. The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster. On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year. The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public. In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run. Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public. The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution. The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community. The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses. According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan. As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment. However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact. Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad. The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies. If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
