Fukushima Updates 3/9

Today's Fukushiam updates -
 
Summation of Fukushima 2nd Anniversary Articles in Japan
 
The Japanese Press is focussing on the negative, as expected. The accident scenario, evacuation stresses, and on-going public fear are emphasized. Tepco's emergency cooling pumping systems, water decontamination technology and reactor building enclosures are called "makeshift", implying they could fail. Unit #4 reactor building continues to be identified as "fragile". Many indie filmakers in Japan are exploiting the 2nd anniversary with frightening, emotionally-appealing videos. Negativity in the Press is omnipresent.
