Remembering 11311

2011.3.11 is the day a massive earthquake and tsunami hit the Tohoku region in northeast Japan. No words can describe the devastation. The unprecedented recovery effort is still in it’s early phase. It will be a long slow journey taking years. Any support, large or small, is appreciated from any part of the world. Support can be in the form of fundraising events and strategies, discussions and seminars, concerts, art, poetry or a just a few words of thought and care. There is something each one of us can do, and collectively that will generate the energy to move forward and create an opportunity of an improved future for all.

11311は東日本大震災からの復興を支援するとともに、自然環境と人間の共生について今一度振り返り、より持続性ある社会への転換を世界的に考え、行動していくキャンペーンです。このロゴにはかけがえのないこの地球に共存するものとして、11311を忘れることなく、よりよい未来のために協力していくという願いと誓が込められています。

3/11 Tsunami Photo Project Slideshow (Kodansha)

On May 11, two months after the East Japan Earthquake, Kodansha launched a slideshow of the 3/11 Tsunami Photo Project with the soundtrack by Japanese musician/composer Sakamoto Ryuichi (4.5 minutes). The project - an English-Japanese bilingual digital book of 120 photographs taken by 14 photographers from 8 countries- includes recorded and written messages by the photographers to the victims of the earthquake and tsunami. Sakamoto donated the music titled ‘Kizuna World’ (Kizuna: bond, ties between people).

One Million People's Candle Night is Japan's Earth Hour held on the summer and winter solstice nights. It is a movement to switch off lights and enjoy a slow night by the candle light. This year's summer solstice or midsummer night is June 22. We ask everyone to switch off lights for 2hours (8-10pm), enjoy quiet music, conversation, beautiful poems, soothing teas with friends, families and loved ones. This year our Candle Night is dedicated to 11311. (Candle Night in Wakayama "Prayer for 11311" 7~10pm@Jan Jan http://co2lo.jp/janjan/)

Petition for Fukushima (Green Action Japan)

We ask you to join us in signing our petition, which
 will be presented to the Japanese Government

. The Fukushima disaster has rocked the entire nation of Japan. Unable to
 guarantee public safety after the Fukushima nuclear catastrophe, Japan's
 bureaucracy has suddenly announced that children can now be exposed to 
six times as much radiation as adult reactor workers. Sign this
 EMERGENCY petition to roll back these reckless radiation limits and 
protect hundreds of thousands of Japanese children from a lifetime of 
cancer fear.

 This is not just about Japan. What happens in Japan can set a dangerous
 precedent abroad.
