In one of the most contaminated places on earth, the continued fears over health risks mix with a sense of a betrayal by the government. “Japanese government policy is very strange. We have been deceived.” Despite voluntary efforts to revitalise the area, it seems there is little hope of reversing the fate of this radioactive wasteland.
