Fukushima is still dangerous

It is a year since the great tsunami wave had destroyed Japanese east coast and had started another great disaster - in Fukushima power plant.

Soon after the catastrophy the situation was so serious, that Japanese authorities were considering to evacuate whole Tokyo. While the scenario of evacuating whole 13 milion citizens metropolis was being discussed.

That's not all. New York Times has informed, that the officials were also considering the risk of a great explosion in Fukushima as well as possibility to close down few other nukes. This could start a chain reaction and to force the authorities to evacuate the capital.

What is more, the situation still remains out-of-control, while Japanese authorities had announced that the no-fly-zone around Fukushima will be 3 kilometres now. As it may seem that the situation gets better, the journalists claim that this action can be provided only to calm the public opinion.

New Fukushima's plant manager, Takeshi Takahashi had claimed that what is still remaining after the the explosion is still worrying:

We still can’t say the facilities are trouble free yet - said Takahashi
