Follow up to previous postings on the Fukushima Nuclear Accident, two new articles from The Economist as follows:

• The death of trust – Last year’s triple disaster—earthquake, tsunami and nuclear meltdown — has shattered Japanese faith in many of the country’s institutions
• The dream that failed – A year after Fukushima, the future for nuclear power is not bright—for reasons of cost as much as safety
• See also – Union of Concerned Scientists – U.S. Power Safety One Year After Fukushima. David Lochbaum and Edwin Lyman. March 2012
• “The Digital Archive of Japan’s 2011 Disasters project is an initiative of the Edwin O. Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies at Harvard University in collaboration with several partners. We aim to collect, preserve, and make accessible as much of the digital record of the disasters as possible, to enable scholarly research and analysis of the events and their effect.”
