Just over a year after the Fukushima nuclear accident (which only worsened Japan's earthquake and tsunami situation at the time), the plant still has the potential to kill. This is the conclusion of the last on-site survey report, which is not yet fully reformed.

According to Al Jazeera, Fukushima's second reactor, still badly damaged, has “highly fatal” radioactive potential. A machine equipped with a camera, thermometer and a dosimeter, entered every corner of the complex to assess the amount of radiation in the atmosphere.

To work there, employees will need special clothing - and some sheds can only be accessed for a few minutes, until exposure is considered harmful even with the insulating clothing. The full site recovery process should take a few decades.

Another aspect of the reactor is its cooling, precisely the point damaged by the 2011 earthquake. According to the report, water storage capacity today is much less than the original, which would have even worse consequences in future accidents.
