Japanese Artist Uses "Nuclear boy" To Explain The Nuclear Disaster To Kids - With Poop And Farts

At the moment, we await word on just how the new power line will work by supply power to help cool the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plants.

Through the whole ordeal faced by the Japanese people (earthquake, tsunami, nuclear meltdowns, cold weather, and hunger), I wonder how the children are. Add to that, the scary nuclear situation that even adults have a problem understanding at times (just look at the reporting by seasoned reporters).

So, Kazuhiko Hachiya made this cartoon that does an adequate job of explain the situation to the Japan children - using poop and farts. As a matter of fact, not only it is cute and explains things well, I encourage even adults to watch it to get a better understanding of the situation at surrounding the nuclear disaster in Japan.

And don't worry, there are subtitles in English.

So meet Nuclear Boy who has a stomach problem.
