Ten years since the Fukushima disaster
A ceremony in Japan recalls that ten years have passed since the melting of the cores at the Fukushima nuclear power plant caused by a strong earthquake of magnitude nine and subsequent tsunami waves more than sixteen meters high, while the decontamination of the affected area proceeds slowly and some say that the company that manages the plant has learned little from its mistakes and important safety flaws remain. There is talk over time of a peak of four hundred and seventy thousand people forced to evacuate and about forty-one thousand were allowed to return to their homes, then the fuel rods were also removed from reactor three, but for the other two the date (in 2019) was postponed to 2029 and postponements would have been decided with regard to the release into the sea of contaminated water from the cooling tanks, there is also the technical challenges that are difficult to solve.
