1. Japan Fukushima
Nuclear Crisis

2. Introduction
• Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO)submits a report to
Japan’s nuclear agency on 7 March 2011.

3. • The huge earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan’s
Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station was struck by a
magnitude 8.9 earthquake on March 11, 2011.

4. • 25 miles away from the Fukushima plant
has been affected by radiation.
• 100,000 residents near the site of the
incident have been affected.
• Did not cause any immediate deaths.

5. The Main Cause
of
Japan Nuclear Crisis

6. As You Know……

7. Earthquake and
Tsunami

8. -
Take down the nuclear plant in Fukushima.
The water flooded into the nuclear plant.
Rod overheated and cooling generators lost power
Explosion.

9. - Japanese do not enhance the
safety improvement of nuclear
plant.

10. - Tsunami study ignored.

11. Japan!!!
WHY!!!!!!???

12. Negative Impact
• Health Issue
• Environment
• Business

13. Impact On Health Issue
•
•
•
•
4% solid cancers in females
6% breast cancer in females
7% leukemia for males
0.75% to 1.25% thyroid cancer in females

14. Impact On Environment
300 TONS
OF CONTAMINATED WATER
PER DAY

15. 300tons = 272,152 liters
Can filled up an olympic swimming pool
over 8 days time!!

16. Water leaked to pacific ocean everyday= 272,152
Estimated water contained at Taylor’s lake= 4,000
liters
liters
272,152 ÷ 4,000 = ??

18. REASON???

19. They needed spaces for their
storage to store water that’s
even more contaminated

21. Impact On Business
In total, 11 of Japan's 50 nuclear reactors were closed
immediately following the earthquake.

22. The capacity to produce electricity was
reduced by as much as 40%, and has
remained at less than 80% of pre-quake levels.

23. SOLUTION

24. U.S. Assistance
Daily needs, evacuation support, medical
support decontamination and radiation
monitoring equipment

25. 450 MILLIONS!!!!

26. IMAGINATION!!!

27. REAL PICTURE

28. Shinzō Abe
(Prime Minister)
My country needs your
knowledge and
expertise!!!
