Inside Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station.<\/strong> The skeletal remains in the center of the photo are what is left of Unit 1 and to the immediate right is the Unit 1 and 2 exhaust stack. Dismantling of this stack finally began in August 2019, after several delays due to the crane which TEPCO deployed not being the right height or capacity. The exhaust stack was used to vent vapours containing radioactive materials at the time of the accident and is highly contaminated and unstable due to damage. It was decided to dismantle half of the stack, which is 120 meters high, to reduce the risk of it collapsing. On the day this photo was taken, 12 Dec 2019, the cutting of a total of 4 blocks from the top of the stack had been completed.  Photo courtesy of Zero Nukes Parliamentary Group.<\/em><\/p>\n
