Once idyllic Fukushima village field now site for tainted waste

Many bags full of contaminated waste from radiation cleanup work are kept at a temporary storage site in the village of Iitate in Fukushima Prefecture on Jan. 15, 2015, nearly four years after the 2011 nuclear accident. Iitate was a member of the Association of the Most Beautiful Villages in Japan, with its golden rice paddies as shown in the inset photo (L), before the disaster that devastated northeastern Japan.
