“Fukushima”, it used to be a name of a town in Japan where people once lived and worked.  Now Fukushima is known as the dark triune catastrophe that began  a year ago today with an earthquake, a tsunami, and ultimately a nuclear meltdown.  We covered Fukushima with various angles over this year in World Team Now’s blogs.   As we move towards more light today, we hope to shine more light on a perspective of what happened, the situation now, and bring you possibilities for our future.

On this day of the Fukushima catastrophe, we remember the lives that were lost. In support of the people this ongoing disaster continues to affect with the health challenges, loss of livelihood and displacement of home, wee reach out with love in our hearts, minds and with compassion we offer our prayers of condolence, and in unity we stand.

World Team Now began our coverage of Fukushima with an open letter to President Obama.  A year later we are happy to be participating in a global open letter!  Your comments on our blogs help to build our mutual cause and our global constituencies for our environment and our future. We want to serve all, so please do re-post our blog coverage of Fukushima, or feel free to share these links:
