    Evacuated Fukushima town to remove ironic nuclear signboards

    File photo taken in November 2014 shows a street signboard reading, "Nuclear power: the energy for a bright future," in the town of Futaba which hosts the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The town, which has been evacuated since the March 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, decided on March 9, 2015, to remove street signboards declaring the positive aspects of nuclear power because they have become decrepit.
