Fukushima Diary has been warning about the increasing contaminated water, fish contamination and the rise of pro-nuke policy since last year. Foreign media companies are slowly catching up but they look almost like they are stopping to me. What makes me impatient is even though Fukushima Diary reports sooner than anyone else on the internet, it reaches only a limited number of the readers who come to the site frequently. but this is the best thing I can do. None of the plant parameters shows the situation is getting better. The most frightening fact is not merely the radiation readings, but that it will continue to be worse and worse. The completely rusted steel beams on the top of reactor3 tell everything. It cannot last for 40 years or more. It’s the best for people to get away from there. but I know it can’t be this easy. They have to find a job, support their family, learn the new language etc.. I can’t get them the new job like magic. The only thing I can do is to keep telling. I don’t care about people who don’t listen to me. It’s not my job to listen, it’s their job. but voice is always here. If they need information, I’m always here. I’m sure I can provide the latest worst news in the simplest way. There must have been tens of thousand of twenty somethings around in Tokyo, who speak English. For some reason, I’m the only one to tell it to the world. Since day zero, I’ve seen everything, recorded everything, and remember them all. I can tell what happened when why, and in what order. Unfortunately, there’s no replacement of me. At this moment, the world doesn’t seem to need me so much.
