Protesting on Friday for a better future is a real thing nowadays and it all began in 2011 thanks to a few concerned citizens in Japan who stuck with it week after week. Find out why for yourself, step-by-step:
 
STEP 1 EDUCATE & SAFEGUARD
The lunacy of the #Tokyo2020 continues as the head of the IOC has to try and convince everyone that the food will be safe enough to eat for visiting athletes post-#Fukushima.  He wouldn’t have had to if Turkey had won the bid for the Games now would he? 

STEP 2 EVACUATE #FUKUSHIMA NOW
In an effort to show South Korea that it’s ’not that bad’ in #Fukushima Prefecture, they’ve taken to posting ’safe’ numbers at the Japanese embassy:
Maybe they should try posting the REAL numbers as measured by #FukuFighter kienaiyoru:

STEP 3 CONTROL & CONTAIN
It’s not just South Korea that’s justifiably concerned about TEPCO’s plan to dump #Fukushima waste water into the Pacific.  Taiwan weighs in on the scandal:

STEP 4 NUCLEAR POWER IS OVER
Corruption within the ranks of the nuclear power industry is slowly strangling it to death.  Soon they won’t even need us to call for their heads because they will have already rolled:

HEY #FUKUFIGHTERS!
Art inspired by life is one of the greatest gifts mankind has and what happened on 3.11.2011 has inspired many works - paintings, documentaries, songs and theater pieces.  Another new one is coming soon to a boards of North Carolina’s Women’s Theatre Festival so if you’re in the area, don’t miss it!

Kids all around the world are trying to make the climate safe for everybody but they may not have all the facts about #Fukushima at hand yet.  Here are the top stories of the week, step-by-step:
 
STEP 1 EDUCATE & SAFEGUARD
TEPCO execs getting off the hook for liability in the #FukushimaNuclearDisaster has everyone asking who is going to take responsibility:

STEP 2 EVACUATE #FUKUSHIMA NOW
Fishermen and residents from #Fukushima know that TEPCO’s water dumping plan will not help them and they don’t like that politics are being played at their expense:

STEP 3 CONTROL & CONTAIN
The radioactive water issue at the #FukushimaDaiichi plant site is not a new one and calls for independent studies and data regarding the toxicity of the water itself is not forthcoming:

STEP 4 NUCLEAR POWER IS OVER
40 years after Three Mile Island became a part of our cultural vernacular, it finally closes down.  Now comes the clean up:

HEY #FUKUFIGHTERS!
Thousands joined the Climate Strike March this week spearheaded by Greta Thunberg and the youth of the world as the demand for action in the fight to save the planet rises.  Their argument is the same as ours - believe the data!  We’ve got the resources to believe in too:

Mainstream media finally paid attention to the water issue at #FukushimaDaiichi this week but they missed the real stories you need to know about.  Be smarter than the average so-called journalist by clicking the links below, step-by-step:
 
STEP 1 EDUCATE & SAFEGUARD
Here’s the REAL top story of the week, the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) in Japan is re-opening the case on how the #FukushimaNuclearDisaster was handled from the beginning:

STEP 2 EVACUATE #FUKUSHIMA NOW
Since food from #Fukushima Prefecture is still limited as an export, the local government is trying to start up a new industry, flying cars?

STEP 3 CONTROL & CONTAIN
Everybody is talking about #Fukushima waste water, 8 years after they SHOULD’VE started talking about it:

STEP 4 NUCLEAR POWER IS OVER
Japan has a new Environment Minister, the son of a former PM who thinks it’s time to talk about decommissioning, not rebuilding it’s nuclear energy fleet:

HEY #FUKUFIGHTERS!
Normally I regard Sputnik News as an outlier for real facts about #FukushimaDaiichi but when the expert they’re interviewing is one of the original #FukuFighters, Christina Consolo that automatically makes it required reading:

STEP 1 EDUCATE & SAFEGUARD
As the trade battle between Japan and South Korea heats up, concerns about #FukushimaRadiation take center stage.  Will the international community step up and listen?

STEP 2 EVACUATE #FUKUSHIMA NOW
Some good news out of Japan finally as 19 year old swimming superstar Rikako Ikee made a public appearance this week while she battles against leukemia.  Let’s hope she bucks the odds and is able to return to the sport she loves and shows that exposure to #FukushimaRadiation doesn’t necessarily mean a death sentence: 

STEP 3 CONTROL & CONTAIN
Radioactive gas was released during the #FukushimaNuclearDisaster?  That’s what Japan’s own NRA is trying to find out at the Daiichi site, 8 years later:

STEP 4 NUCLEAR POWER IS OVER
After years of declining prices and demand, the nuclear industry is now desperate for a lifeline from the U.S. gov’t.  Trump is dumb enough to bail them out too, unless we put a stop to it!

HEY #FUKUFIGHTERS!
It’s important that we stick together in this fight to end the nuclear era and the best way to do that is to subscribe to each other’s websites, podcasts and blogs.  One that I turn to often is Robert Cherwink’s #OccupyNuclear Daily news blog because he posts a lot of international stuff that normally slips thru the cracks here in the U.S.  It’s super easy to get your daily dose, just click the link below:

Young and old alike are starting to understand the gravity of the 70 year nuclear lie.  It's up to all of us to bear witness to the truth about radiation, step-by-step:
 
STEP 1 EDUCATE & SAFEGUARD
The existence of “closed cities” in Russia due to nuclear testing explains a lot about how that country has been handling it’s nuclear “incidents” of late:

STEP 2 EVACUATE #FUKUSHIMA NOW
“Our government has abandoned us” - hear another man’s story of the #FukushimaNuclearDisaster’s tragic aftermath in their hometown of Iitate:

STEP 3 CONTROL & CONTAIN
South Korea just released a list of radioactive food including candy and coffee received from Japan over the past 5 years.  Still believe everything is ‘under control’ in #Fukushima?

STEP 4 NUCLEAR POWER IS OVER
Nobody circles the wagons like the nuclear power industry but now in Japan, the major nuclear vendors have to because of #Fukushima and rising costs:

HEY #FUKUFIGHTERS!
Did you know that there’s a mobile app game based on the #FukushimaNuclearDisaster?  Last Battle: Fukushimon is available on most phone platforms to play as treacherous #Fukushima fruit springs to life and must be stopped!  (Why Donald Trump is the protagonist is anyone’s guess tho) Unfortunately there isn’t a way to triumph over TEPCO in the game (yet) but at least you can divert some of your time away from the real work to play and let your peeps know about:
