Magnitude was later corrected to 9.0, and the earthquake was felt almost in the entire region of Japan. I also experienced it when I was a third year grade student in an elementary school, but I clearly remember it. 

Huge tsunami that the meteorological department was not able to expect reached the Pacific side of Japan especially in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures. 

It destroyed nuclear power plants and people were told to save electricity. I was living about 300km away from the power plants, but my town was also slightly contaminated. A month later, some people moved from Fukushima to my town because his home was in the highly contaminated area.

The recent huge fires in Australia, Amazon, and Siberia are a significant example of that. 

Now it’s time to take a stand against the climate change through a number of measures such as prohibiting single use products and plastic. Also, stopping the use of coal and fuel. Together we can work for a better future.
