On March 11, 2011, Japan suffered one of the greatest disasters in its history. The earthquakes and tsunami directly affected the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant and a large amount of radioactive material was released into the atmosphere. The effects of this nuclear disaster continue that there has been none of human’s appearances since then, but wild animals survive in abandoned areas and the green cover is increasing.
Immediately after the radioactive leak, the Japanese authorities evacuated all the residents away from the area immediately. However, the fact that the region was evacuated for humans does not mean the same for animals. Scientists working at the University of Georgia in the United States, have installed camera systems in almost every region of the nuclear disaster and wanted to determine what happened in the region. They gathering various images in a total of 120 days. Images of more than 46 thousand wild boars were captured. More than 26,000 of them were shot in a completely uninhabited area, while about 13,000 images were obtained from areas close to living spaces.
Scientists now want to carry out studies to understand the genetic condition of the animals in the area. However, the return of animals and plants in Fukushima has proved that without human’s interference, nature has its own way to keep a place for every animal and plants.

There are many kinds of pollution. Air, water, and land can be polluted. Some pollution is caused by nature, such as floods, forest fires, and volcanoes. People are the major cause of pollution. We pollute the air with our cars, homes, and factories. Smoke from factories and car exhaust makes the air looks gray and smoggy. Some people cannot go outside when the air is very bad! We pollute the water by dumping garbage and chemicals in the water. Plants and animals die because of the pollution in the water. We pollute the soil with chemicals and garbage. We harm the land by cutting down trees in the forest, especially to build roads and new houses without careful planning and thinking.
The only way to save our environment is to think about pollution. How can you stop or limit pollution? How do we protect our environment? Conservation is one way to protect our environment. Conservation is the wise use and protection of our environment. We can control water pollution by not producing as much waste and by proper disposal of sewage and garbage. We can take care of recreation land by cleaning up after ourselves and not causing more pollution. Carpooling and public transportation will help reduce air pollution.
Recycling is a type of conservation. Recycling is reusing items over again or in a new way. Recycling can help US conserve our natural resources so they will last many more years.
