Japan has restarted its first nuclear reactor in over three years, despite major concerns over its safety
Tokyo, June 23 (RHC)-- Japan has restarted its first nuclear reactor in over three years, despite major concerns over its safety and widespread public opposition to Japan’s continued use of nuclear power.
Energy experts say the Japanese government is not heeding the lessons of the devastating triple disaster of 2011, which killed nearly 20,000 people after a 9.0 magnitude earthquake triggered a tsunami and a nuclear meltdown at the Fukushima power plant.
Media reports emphasize that thousands of residents are still displaced from the 2011 disaster -- 10 years later.
