Letter from Fukushima


From the Surfer's Journal website:

By Tadashi Yaguchi

Dear my friends.

We Japanese used to surf at front of nuclear power station in Fukushima. Almost all coastal line has been destroyed by tsunami and earthquake...and explosion of nuclear power station. There were so many classic surf spot and secret point there. The land around the power station will now be polluted for next few decade.

Please tell this disaster to media. Tohoku (North Japan) needs help.
