Images From the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster Zone Show Nature Reclaiming What’s Hers

Mess with mother nature, and she'll initiate a hostile takeover.

…consumed, bit by bit…

The streetlights still turn on at dusk, and there's no one to enjoy it but the creeping greenery…

There are still high levels of radiation left in the area, and authorities entering the Exclusion Zone have to be fully-wrapped in radiation-repelling suits.

6.7 usV/h radiation levels at the Nuclear Exclusion Zone. Normal levels are at 0.87 mSv/a.

"Nuclear energy is the energy of a bright future," the sign reads.
