This excellent piece about the business of nuclear power in Japan shows how communities have been bought off — and then sold out.
In one case, the rights were bought to build nuclear plant on the beach, on the *exact same site* where a major earthquake and tsunami struck some 150 years ago, which is the average time between major tectonic events in Japan.
Japan is being divided into two camps: one that believes in the nuclear industry’s propaganda and the other, which no longer wishes to be deceived — now, more than ever, in a post-Fukushima world.

Japan has always been energy hungry and addicted to nuclear power. Yet the tsunami washed away old certainties and the industry has seen a growing ground-level resistance and concern about its safety.
“The safety myth about nuclear power has been sunk deeply into people’s hearts. But that lie has been exposed”, says anti-nuclear activist, Hitomi Kamanaka. The Fukushima disaster is believed to have released as much radiation as 200 Hiroshima bombs. “There’s been a lot of cover up over this”. Across Japan communities are fighting to stop the construction of new power plants. Yet can the world’s third biggest consumer of electricity live without them?
