pauledell Posted May 12, 2013 Share #2 Posted May 12, 2013 A terrible tragedy. Ironically there appears to be a child's scooter in the foreground. Do they intend to rebuild these villages? Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NZDavid Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share #3 Posted May 12, 2013 There are also yellow ribbons on sites indicating the survivors would like to return but it may not be possible and no decision has been made. Establishing an ecological park in some areas might be an alternative solution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StS Posted May 12, 2013 Share #4 Posted May 12, 2013 Thank you for sharing this reportate of a monumental tragedy. The explanation about the "yellow ribbons" also adds to the report. Stefan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl G Posted May 12, 2013 Share #5 Posted May 12, 2013 Stark, somewhat desolate, a good reminder that an event faded from most of the world's attention has left a legacy that very much goes on for those effected. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orient XI Posted May 12, 2013 Share #6 Posted May 12, 2013 We must also remember that much of Fukushima province is contaminated by radioactivity from the destroyed nuclear power plant. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NZDavid Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share #7 Posted May 12, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Some parts will never recover. For an in depth account of the tragedy and its impact on people's lives, I recommend reading Strong in the Rain, by Time reporter Lucy Birmingham and British journalist David McNeill. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
