8.9 Magnitude Earthquake Hits Japan + Tsunami and Alerts
Um... Let's make a list of current problems Japan is facing, just to put it simply for people who may read this and may not easily understand what's going on.

-Earthquake; A pretty good sum of damage to some areas of eastern Japan.
-Tsunami; Completely destroyed the north-east side of Japan. Homes were lost, thousands of lives were lost, jobs were lost, etc.
-Odaiba Oil Refinery Exploded; Good bye to a pretty good amount of natural resources. This will probably make gas prices sky rocket and it'll probably make Japan's economy collapse further than the situation had already put them in.
-Nuclear Reactor issue; Quite a few Nuclear Facilities are having major issues at the moment. If things keep going poorly, this COULD lead to an even worse incident, even involving neighboring countries.
-Jobs were lost; furthering the unemployment rates and an impending economic crash
-Food shortages; A huge portion of Japan's agriculture was destroyed in north-eastern Japan, so now Japan will not have a sufficient supply of food or other supplies for at least 3 to 5 years from now.


If you have more to add, please do.
