The video discusses the ongoing impact of the Fukushima nuclear disaster on the fishing industry in Onahama, located 50 kilometers from the plant. Despite the law not prohibiting fishing, distribution is limited due to radiation concerns. Greenpeace is conducting research to identify safe fishing areas, as 80% of the plant's radioactive material spilled into the sea.
