I have always wanted to take part in a protest, so this was the day. I wasn't really sure what I was protesting for but after meeting a few people on the letter A. I found out that Japan has these power plants that have radiation coming out of them and into the sea, because the wind is so high on the pacific coast is it coming our way. By 2014 our sea life will die and maybe us. Well that is a bit extreme but I am glad I am protesting right now.
They weren't going to do a normal protest, instead they wanted us to make a human sign made up of 500 people spelling out 'fukushima is here', at 12.00 a plane will fly over airing our sign on TV and will also be shown on the internet where japan will see how much is harming us. So that is why I was on the letter A.
I also had a dog next to head, I thought what is happening to this world. They are now letting animals protest and on the letter I there was a women with a bird on her shoulder, not sure how these will help the protest but I suppose why not.
In the end I am not sure if we were successful as we had 4 different directions. No 1: Lying on your back, No 2: stand up and hold hands, No 3: put your hands in the air and wave then No 4: Mexican wave. These were all done in our letters for the plane but I felt I made a difference and actually feel more worried about the idea than before as before I didn't even know about it.
