That’s what NPR reporter Kat Lonsdorf wanted to discover when she visited Fukushima in early 2020. Kat joins host Mike Corey to discuss how locals are rebuilding their communities and the future of nuclear power in Japan.For more on the aftermath of the disaster, listen to Kat Lonsdorf’s NPR series, Recovering Fukushima.Listen early and ad free with Wondery+.
