For the surfers offshore the wall will be almost invisible, hidden behind the existing sand dunes and pine trees. From the land it will tower 10-12 meters above the Hamaoka nuclear power plant’s perimeter road. It will be 1.6 kilometers long and two metres thick; its foundations will be deeper than the wall itself is tall. It will weigh the best part of 1m tonnes. This is what Japan’s Chubu Electric Power thinks it will take to stop a tsunami a touch bigger than the one that hit Fukushima, which is slightly farther from Tokyo to the north-east than Hamaoka is to the south-west. Chubu expects to have the wall finished by the end of this year. Until then Hamaoka’s three reactors—two of them similar to those at Fukushima—remain shut down.
