Nuclear Scare after Japan Quake

This is why nuclear power has no future:
A strong earthquake in central Japan has damaged a large nuclear power plant causing a leak of radioactive material, officials at the plant have said.

A small amount of water containing radioactive substances leaked into the sea, officials said, and a fire broke out at the plant in Kashiwazaki.

At least seven people were killed and hundreds injured in the earthquake.

We shall see:
Tokyo Electric Power Company said the small amount of radioactive material that leaked into the sea posed no environmental risk.
