Soon after the March 11, 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear meltdowns in Japan, I began what would be two years work with Greenpeace on its Fukushima nuclear response.
The campaign primarily focused on the human impacts of the nuclear meltdowns, but also covered reactor shutdown, the official response, radiation cleanup, corruption, liability, economic consequences, the rise of citizen activism, and renewable energy development.
