The Olympics, Fukushima, Creative Reconstruction & Capitalism
Professor George Wright discusses how the Japanese Abe government was able to bring the 2020 Olympics to Japan and organize the baseball games and Para Olympics at Fukushima. The Abe government has said that Fukushima has been "decontaminated" and although this is not the case, the Olympic committee officials have accepted this whitewashing of the dangers of Fukushima.
The Olympics, Fukushima, & Creative Reconstruction with Professor George Wright
The Japanese Prime Minister Abe with the support of the International Olympics Committee is planning to have the 2020 Olympics in Japan with the baseball games and para-Olympics taking place in Fukushima.
Professor George Wright looks at the history of Olympics and how the commercialization for a profit of the Olympics has led to the Olympics Committee approving the having part of the 202 Olympics in the still contaminated Fukushima. He talks about "created reconstruction" and how the Olympics are driven by political and corporate agendas.
Although Prime Minister Abe has told the Olympic Committee that Fukushima has been "decontaminated" the melted nuclear rods have still not been removed from the broken reactors and there is over one million tons of radioactive water in tanks surrounding the nuclear reactors. Additionally, there are tens of thousands of bags full of radioactive material throughout the Fukushima region.
