A Little Girl Who Isn't Allowed To Play Outside, And The Startling Reason Why
It has been a few years since an earthquake and tsunami caused a radiation leak at the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan, but there are continuing consequences. Though many places in the Fukushima Prefecture are still evacuated, parents in nearby areas are worried for their children's safety and require kids to wear face masks and to limit their outdoor play. Decontaminating homes is expensive and time-consuming ... but is it possible to decontaminate nature? This short, animated film gives us a peek into how it might feel to see nature as dangerous, rather than a playground.
