Japan Marks 4th Anniversary of 3/11 Disaster Mar. 10, 2015 - Updated 14:46 UTC-4 People in Japan are observing the 4th anniversary of the earthquake and tsunami that devastated the country's northeast on March 11th, 2011. The magnitude 9.0 earthquake triggered waves more than 10 meters high. The tsunami caused extensive damage along the Pacific Coast. Police say about 18,500 people were killed or went missing. At least 3,200 others died while evacuating from their homes. The government says nearly 230,000 people were still living in temporary housing as of February. It plans to build about 30,000 public housing units, but only 19 percent of them have been completed so far. Dismantling the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant is the biggest burden for the nation. Workers with the Tokyo Electric Power Company are struggling to deal with a buildup of radioactive water at the complex. TEPCO executives had planned to clean up the tainted water by the end of March, but they say they will not be able to keep to this schedule. Authorities estimate it will take up to 40 years to decommission the plant. There are concerns about possible delays. The most difficult task will be removing the molten nuclear fuel. The central and local governments plan to complete the decontamination work for mainly residential areas by March 2017. But the survivors fear that public interest in the issue may wane over time. ~~~~~ Prime Minister Abe "committed" to REBUILDING the devestated North Eastern portion of Japan in Spite of the Radioactive Contamination and Shortage of Storage. ~~~~~ Nuclear Energy Agency in Japan Calling for "More Transparency" of TEPCO. ~~~~~ Anti-Nuclear Protests bursting in Japan ~~~~~ Shop owners face dilemmas in North Eastern Japan.

Fukushima may be payback for Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Ain't Karma A Bitch?
-
These people are out of there fucking minds!!!!!

I HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH A PILE OF DOG SHIT AS PUT FORTH BY THESE JAPANESE PSYCHOPATHS. THE PRIME MINISTER'S BACKYARD SHOULD BE DESIGNATED AS THE BEST PLACE TO STORE THE NUCLEAR WASTE, AND TEPCO BURNED TO THE GROUND.
-
Yes, they do have to start with ground 0, all must go, is contaminated. The ground structure is disturbed, need to be recover, all new lines put in, probably they should put concrete pilings into the ground, let it sit, rest, collaps, and put new infrastructures than, it needs time to cure. Its a huge job. But people of Japan will do it, they are great people. Good luck. TH

Just think all this for a light and tv...........
-
So they literally have to pick up every single bit of dirt and object in the area and dispose of it ? Like move all the trees and concrete ect ect?
-
damn its been 4 years
-
Ok move all the people away from the area and walk the walk and not talk the talk you fucking ass wipe.
-
Looks like they are building up more waste and before you know it everything will be way out of there control and they all will have to leave the area for good load this shit up and ship it out to space
-
Why don't they build a rocket load it up and launch it out to space somewhere like outside of Pluto somewhere and be done with it.
-
Double Whammy on these problems. Odd change but still nuclear facts. No problem with that.
-
what can i do to save mankind or at least mother earth that cared for us for millions of years
-
sitting in denmark expirincing around 300 bekarel in my livingroom it vas about 40 after chernobyl dont tel me that notting is happening
-
this is how Japan gets back at the U.S. for Hiroshima. slow..............

The real truth is the Pacific and other oceans will soon die and they know it. The committing entire west coast of North America is also being killed and our leaders know it and are intentionally hiding it by not doing any monitoring whatsoever and all of this is very criminal. The seafood we eat IS CONTAMINATED and only private organizations are monitoring this while our governments do nothing and our food is very radioactive and poisonous and should not be eaten. our Satanist world leaders are deliberately allowing this to happen and this IS the END TIMES ARMAGEDON as prophesied in the Bible. The best thing any of us can do now is to get right with God by following the words in the kjv Bible and abandon all Religion as it has been taken over and or created by Satan and none follow the Gods words contained within the Bible and I need only mention one sample that proves this and that is that none of them worship the Sabbath on Saturday which they all know is the Sabbath as stated in the Bible. You wonder why so many cant find God in churches well that's your answer. There is only one way to Gods kingdom of love called Heaven and that's through Jesus only. All this new age we can all be Gods crap is false and you can clearly see that by looking at the place that has practiced this for a very long time called India. Gods not there in any faith they practice. The fourth blood moon tetrad and the CERN startup both happen at the end of September 2015 and then the horrors begin for those that do not follow Gods teachings in the Bible but for those that do and have they will Rapture away as God has prophesied. This is very real folks and the end is here so now is the time to ask God for his truth and once you feel it repent to become even closer and more receptive to Gods truth and follow the Bible from there. May God please bless us all I pray and hope. amen

There is no such thing as "decontamination work for residential areas". Radiation contamination is like dispersing cinnamon powder all over your kitchen and then cleaning it on your knees using Q-TIPs. Good luck!!

Stop bobbing up and down and get this situation fixed.
Fucking lying Japanese cunts. -
Interesting that the land owners are not selling to tepco. Maybe they are holding out by suing?
Wind and solar are the future.....fossil fuels are the past.............
Climate Change is real......... we need to deal with the cause (fossil fuels)
Solar is the future ....... no monthly fuel costs........ Solar WINS long term..............fossil fuels are the past
Batteries are a game changer.......solar with batteries winds over nat gas, coal and nuclear..............
Batteries allow for solar power 24/7............game over..........
100% electric transportation and 100% solar by 2030
