Protests at Toshiba and Tepco AGMs

Greenpeace protests outside the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) AGM and the Toshiba AGM. Greenpeace is campaigning to extend the liability for a nuclear accident to include the suppliers of nuclear reactors and other materials. These companies should have to provide some of the compensation needed as a result of the triple meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. Over 100,000 people have a signed an online petition to call on GE, Hitachi and Toshiba to take responsibility of the faulty reactors they provided to Fukushima NPP.
