1. After the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster Japan thought TEPCO would
be able to manage the problem, but earlier this year the government was
forced to step in and play a bigger role. Now, two and a half years after the
onset of the March 11 nuclear disaster, Japan has officially finally
accepted international help with the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear
power plant from France, who will help decommission and dismantle the
crippled reactors. The move signals how little progress has been made by
the Japanese on their forty-plus year decommissioning project, and also
casts doubt on Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s statement to the Olympic
committee that the crisis at Fukushima Daiichi is under control.

Why the Fukushima
disaster is worse
than Chernobyl
committee that the crisis at Fukushima Daiichi is under control.
Ever since the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster, Russia has known that
there is not such a thing as a national nuclear accident, they are all
international disasters. The Russians offered to help Japan two years ago,
but are still waiting to be taken up on that offer. They offered Japan highly
absorbent materials which would help handle contaminated water. The
Russians have always said that pumping water into the crippled reactors
would create more problems than solutions.
