2020 Olympics

Committee voted for the 2020 Olympics to be held In Tokyo despite Radiation Leakage from a plant in Tokyo. The Prime Minister of Tokyo promised for a clean up before 2020. Do you think the Radiation will be cleaned up by 2020? and Should they still host the Olympics there because their has been radiation there?   http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/07/sport/world-olympics-2020/index.html?hpt=hp_inthenews

  • Good but many of your responses are "I agree with you."

  • Id say definitely not. Obviously the country isn't prepared to host the Olympics if they are cleaning up radiation. Plus Im sure that its not a good idea to send a bunch of people to a country that has recently had this happen. Also i feel that they should focus on cleaning their country no hosting Olympics.

  • I doubt they are going to put the Olympic stadium right next to where it leaked. Tokyo is a big city and can put it on the opposite side of the city if radiation is still a problem there in 2020

    • I agree with you

  • I think that it is good for Tokyo because of all the tourism but if they have radiation there, even if they cleaned up a little bit, there could still be radiation just lurking around in the air which could get people really sick and possibly kill them. My opinion is that I don't think they should host the Olympics there because of the possible risk.

    • I don't agree

  • I think that they will have it done and cleaned up by the Olympics in 2020. I also think that they should still hold them in Tokyo.

  • I can't believe they would let the olympics be in Tokyo after the radiation leak. Maybe they will have it cleaned up by then, but what if they don't. Then they would have to move the olympics somewhere else in short notice. 

    • I agree

  • They should still have the Olympics there. Tokyo has almost 7 years to clean it all up so that would be enough time. I think everything would be fine there and nobody would get sick or anything like that.
