Fukushima 1 nuclear accidents

Summary

On March 11th, Fukushima 1 Nuclear Power Plant was attacked by the tsunamis made by The Sendai earthquake, its cooling devices stopped and coolants' temperature rose.
Then hydrogen explosion occured in the unit 1. It made power plant's damage worse, finally, radiation have leaked out with steam made by hydrogen explosion.

However unit 3, unit 2 and unit 4 exploded, now, circumstance has settled.
Pouring nitrogen and fresh water (At first, Tokyo Electric Power Company used saltwater. But they switched.) for nuclear reactors, Moving radioactive liquid waste to the waste treatment plant and confirmation of circumstances with remote control robots have been conducted by Tokyo Electric Power Company and government mainly.
We haven't had another big problem yet. But expansion of evacuation areas or regulation of entrance to those areas have also put into effect. So we should be careful.

Kashiwa city, the city where members live, is 198.8 kilometers off from Fukushima 1 Nuclear Power Plant and isn't disignated as evacuation area.But some influences can be seen.

FOOD: Rumor issues

The radioactivity's leakage of Fukushima 1 Nuclear
Power Plant has damaged land, sea and air.
And it is said that agriculture and fishery have been damaged especially. Because they were told not to ship their products however they can't work any longer.
Moreover, the other problem is making their state worse.
What is it? It's rumor issues--financial damage caused by harmful rumours or misinformation.Here are some examples.

・However its radiation value is lower than minimal required value and we can eat them, they aren't sold at all.
・High-quality articles' price have fallen greatly. But they aren't sold.
・Being same as ones were not to ship, some crops come to be left.

REFUGE

Nowadays, many self-governing bodies have begun to take in refugees. But there are also trouble on accepting.

Neighbor of one of my teammate had accepted their relative who take a refuge from evacuation area and they live as if play shove and push. Not having their clothes, the teammate's family handed over hand-me-downs to them.
I only heard it. But I could know how impended they are.

The outlook of Nuclear power plant problem's solution haven't been able to see yet, and perhaps this won't resolve until then.
But, at least, if we have light knowledge or information, we may be able to make them better.
Don't give up making them better because it seems not to finish, but try to solve them with everyone as many times as possible.
