this is a much smaller event than what happened in fukushima in 2011. another difference is the fukushima earthquake occurred on a geologic feature called a subduction zone. those are the type of earthquakes that traditionally cause very large tsunami because it's called a thrust fault. when a thrust fault ruptures, is very good at moving the entire water column and causing a tsunami. what we've seen so far from this alaskan event is it occurred and what we call a strike-slip and fall. that fault you are very familiar with being in california because the classic example of a strike slip fault is the san andreas fault. the good thing about that for me tsunami us. -- perspective is most of the fault motion is horizontal and there's no vertical deformation of the seafloor or at least very little so it's not as efficient at generating tsunami waves as a thrust fault like fukushima. >> at this point when you're watching it come is there anything that would change? were watching it make its way down this area that would bring more concern or this will be bigg

a story here about a fukushima water decision. a decision that is due sometime later this year.anese regulator saying that water stored at the fukushima won plant can be dyed looted and released into the sea. it is faced with criticism by fishermen in the area who are saying they fear there could be some sort of impact on fish and environment even though the regulator is saying this is harmless once the water is dyed the looted —— diluted. the ta nks dyed the looted —— diluted. the tanks at fukushima will be leaky because of groundwater so the issue is you either release it into the sea or do something else with it. the water cannot stay there forever will not other countries do release water contaminated so we will see what happens with that decision. major threat to elite forces, cutting down the number of people serving in the armed forces in this country. a story that the times reported. around 14,000 jobs could go and also we could see the unification of pa ratroopers go and also we could see the unification of paratroopers and royal marine units and that comes on the back

time is of the essence for any fukushima robot.tion will eventually damage and disable its cameras, rendering it useless. but the entire mission can also be upset by something far more basic. this is service hatch x6, and in unit two they were hoping to send a scorpion robot down this ramp to film the molten fuel at the bottom. but it got caught halfway down so it never made it, and they didn't get any footage or evidence of where the fuel was. in unit three the water's much higher, so they had to think of another way to get a robot in. that's where the mini sunfish came in. well, actually, that's where the mini sunfish came in. built to fit through this 15 centimetre pipe, mini sunfish is a tiny underwater robot with five propellers, two cameras, and four human operators. 300 kilometres away from fukushima, in toshiba's yokohama r&d centre, i came face—to—face with the star of the investigation. injuly this year, mini sunfish was successful in finding melted clumps of material that could be fuel debris in the pedestal in unit thre

one that looks a whole lot like, for instance, the 2011 tsunami that devastated japan and led the fukushima nucleic disaster, that's an entirely real possibility for a place like the olympic peninsula in washington. so they decided to take action and so this very modest town passed a major referendum for something like $8 million, and they decided what they were going to do is they were going to build a tsunami sheltering station at the top of their new grade school. so they knew they could keep all the kids in their district safe. so it's this incredibly sew fess tick indicated shell sirring system, rubber floor, high walls, enough ford for a all of the kids for two weeks and the kids drill again and again and have it down to 27 seconding get all the kids in the district up in the sheltering system and they know they'll bev safe. it's the likelihood that's going to happen in the next five, ten years, all that great? no. but they decided that the risk was really worth it. and i think that as a nation, it's really beholding to start thinking that way. we are really good at responding to natu

but after fukushima it became a challenge in many countries to be a nuclear power plants. the challenge is not only that pickets also in the financing part of the equation, to have new nuclear power plants. even some countries like in the united states, electricity demand is low when gas prices are low. the renewables are going to find that getting electricity from nuclear is a challenge. unless governments don't take any measures. so for the new builds, in my view, it will be very difficult to go with the traditional nuclear power plants. small model reactors. it can provide the opportunity to address the project management risks and the financing problems. so this can be a solution. if i go from, and i believe, nuclear country where it is excepted, complain portable for united security and also for the issues can make a positive contribution. there is one more issue, globally. as i said, you also mention in the u.s. we are building one only nuclear power plant. in europe it's similar. in japan it is similar. these countries where the main nuclear technology exporters unt

after the fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011, germany pledged to shut down its last reactor within a go green. yet the danger of radiation exposure still exists for some. in the belgium city of thiange , the nuclear plant is outdated and has had to be shut down several times due to accidents. this is worrisome for residents in the germany city of aachen, which is right across the border. and now some are preparing themselves for the worst. >> despite all the gingerbread and christmas lights, many people in aachen aren't in a festive mood. they're worried a nuclear accident might occur just across the border in belgium. aachen's city administration even issued free iodine tablets, just in case. andrea haupt picked up her ration. she'll carry them with her at all times,to be prepared for the worst. >> i'll see them in my wallet every day. it's not a nice feeling to see these pills and think you might have to take them at some point. >> but aachen isn't just distributing iodine tablets. it has launched a court appeal in belgium and would like to see the plant closed down. the officials
