Atsuta Jingu (Atsuta Shrine)
The history of Atsuta-jingu, located in Atsuta-ku, Nagoya-shi in Aichi Prefecture, dates back 2,000 years. The shrines history begins with the dedication of a treasured sword, Kusanagi-no Tsurugi ("Grass-mowing Sword") by Prince Yamatotakeru-no-Mikoto, a legendary figure appearing in Japanese mythology. With many worshippers, the shrine is known affectionately today as "Atsuta-sama." In the precincts of the shrine is a giant camphor tree around 1,000 years old which is said to have been planted by the saint Kobo-daishi (Kukai), who propagated Buddhism in Japan following Buddhist studies in China. Notwithstanding its location in the heart of the city of Nagoya, the precincts of Atsuta-jingu are filled with greenery, and provide people with a place to relax as well as worship.' (source)

4 years have passed since Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. I have visited various places of Japan to see the health consequence of the accident.
Fortunately I have never found any impacts by the accident among Japanese creatures. As far as I know, nobody has health problem which is caused by the accident in Japan.
Our Prime Minister Abe assures that "The situation is under control. The influence of the contaminated water is completely blocked within Fukushima. There are no health-related problems until now and there will never be health problems." He also said that "Tokyo is 250 kilometers away from Fukushima, and the kind of danger that you imagine does not exist in Tokyo. Tokyo is a very safe city."
As PM Abe said, Nagoya Prefecture is very far away from Fukushima, people in there have no concern about the nuclear power plant accident. People in there have already forgotten the accident, because they think radioactive materials cannot reach there.
We know there is no problem for childbirth and child rearing in Nagoya Prefecture. So people in there have no concern about the accident.
I continue to visit various places in Japan to see the effects of the accident, because I can meet various creatures which are more sensitive to radioactive materials from the environment. It is important to see their health for our safety.
