Japan Tsunami 2011 Nuclear Plant Blast

Nuclear energy still very safe, you think? Does Malaysia really want to go down this path?

It’s weird to see all those professors on global television stations trying to downplay the seriousness of the situation. Big money is at stake in the nuclear power industry.

The Green Action group reports that yesterday five members of the Japan Visual Journalists Association (JVJA) and Ryuichi Hirokawa, editor-in-chief of the Days Japan magazine, arrived at Futaba Town where the Fukushima Daiichi reactors are located (the plants are located in both Okuma Town and Futaba Town) to undertake independent monitoring measurements.

Green Action is a Kyoto-based Japanese citizens organisation campaigning for an end to Japan’s plutonium programme. Read their report here.
