And what about Fukushima?
FukushimaThe Hindu
In today's society, news stories have a short period of time and remain only in the places where they have been produced.
It's been just over four months since what happened in Fukushima happened and we've been without much news from the place for a long time (an exception, for example, in this same issue, is the Net Near Light section). I believe that a double reality is taking place.
On the one hand, we know that while a territory the size of Lapurdi is empty, people, land and animals are being controlled from the land around it, but we know nothing about what is happening in the marine waters of the area. In a few years' time we will know what we have done there. On the other hand, what is remaining
at the Fukushima nuclear power plant is also unknown; rather, it has become a field of testing, of course a secret, and what will result will be the future of the nuclear energy business around the world. As can be a catastrophe (another explosion, another radioactive leak...), a great success can also be achieved (some control of radioactivity...).
I am sure that the nuclear lobby will give us some surprise in the coming months.
