Japan: Nuclear Update

For the first time since the evacuations residents were allowed back to their homes. Although it was for only two hours and residents had to wear hazmat suits to protect them from any radiation in the area, this is the first step to normal; they were only allowed to retrieve a single bag worth of items. However there are talks about allowing owners to retrieve their pets from the area. As of now many pets are just scavenging the area, having been left behind due to the evacuations after the threat of a nuclear disaster. Hopefully this is a sign that Japan is on its way to rebuilding.
