On March 11, 2011, a nightmare scenario bore down on #Japan. First, one of the biggest earthquakes ever recorded struck the north-eastern coast. An hour later, a tsunami slammed into the shore. The waves hit the #Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, an inadequately prepared facility, triggering the world's worst nuclear accident since #Chernobyl. Ten years on, the effects will continue to be felt for decades. From human loss to public accountability, from nuclear energy to the problematic clean-up, we take a closer look at the ongoing road to recovery in this special edition of the show.
