  • From Fukushima, Japan is considering dumping contaminated water from the nuclear power plant into the sea soon

Farmer Yoshiharu Soma survived the earthquake that sank his neighborhood in the city of Iwaki, on the east coast of Fukushima Prefecture.

Also to the 15 meter waves that came later.

It happened on March 11, 2011. Two weeks later, 64-year-old Yoshiharu hanged himself because no one wanted to buy the rice he was growing anymore.

His colleague Aoi Hoshino, 66, committed suicide in the same way that March 10 years ago.

Not that nobody wanted their products after the subsequent accident
