Japan's population smaller and older in 2040
Japan's government says the populations of all of the country's prefectures, including Tokyo, will be declining in 2040, and that nearly one-third of each will be over the age of 65.
The National Institute of Population and Social Security Research released the projection on Wednesday. The forecast is based on the latest results of the 2010 census and the impact of the March 2011 disaster in northeast Japan.
Death rate of senior evacuees rises in Fukushima
Researchers have found that the death rate nearly tripled among evacuees from facilities for elderly people near the crippled Fukushima Daiichi power plant.
The research group from the University of Tokyo and a city-run hospital tracked 328 senior evacuees from 5 facilities in Minamisoma City. The facilities are within a 30-kilometer radius of the plant where the serious nuclear accident occurred in March 2011.
Increase in flatfeet among Fukushima children
A nursery school in Fukushima City reports a sharp increase in the number of children with flatfeet. The school blames restrictions on outdoor play imposed after the Fukushima nuclear accident 2 years ago.
Govt. to hold drill assuming Nankai Trough quake
The Japanese government says it will base the country's annual nationwide disaster drill this year on the scenario of a mega-quake in the Nankai Trough off the Pacific coast.
The Nankai Trough is a subduction zone that stretches for 900 kilometers off central to western Japan. The zone has seen repeated large-scale earthquakes throughout history.
