Show Notes
Japan commemorates the 15th anniversary of the 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear crisis, which claimed over 22,000 lives and displaced half a million. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi pledges to accelerate recovery efforts and promote nuclear power. Despite progress in rebuilding infrastructure, communities and economies in affected areas remain fragile as many have relocated. The Fukushima Daiichi plants meltdowns have left behind 880 tons of radioactive debris, with full removal not expected until 2037. Decontamination efforts have generated enough radioactive soil to fill 11 baseball stadiums, sparking public resistance to reuse plans. Recovery progresses amid these challenges, learning from the past and planning for a stable energy future.
