Exibit+5-Earthquake+Effects+in+Japan

=﻿ Japan Trouble=

About 2 months ago on March 11th the country of Japan was affected by a major earthquake measuring 8.9 on the Richter scale triggered a tsunami. In result over 200 deaths, over 3,000 injuries, and over 2,500 missing. After that earthquake hit, a nuclear reactor was cracked from a shifting tectonic plate. The crack let out radioactive materials and sent radiation levels soaring causing the 2,000 people living near the Fukushima nuclear plants to evacuate Japan. Most people think this isn't as bad as it really is. If they look further in to this matter they will find that it could get worse, because they can't see that the reactors are failing. Everything that revolves around this nuclear plant is unpredictable. With radiation levels being so high something could explode and cause Japan to no longer be. From all the radiation in the air it is so easy for someone to get fatally sick from radiation sickness, sadly there is no cure for radiation sickness. With Japan being big on cattle the radiation could get in to the food chain, it could easily enter the dairy area of the food chain. The last and final reason people think it's not as bad as it is the Japanese government isn't telling everything they know about the radioactive materials that are in the are, so the people of Japan think everything will be over with in a few months, or it already is over with.
