Workers haul a bag of leaves and soil contaminated by radiation, during a clean up operation in the town of Naraha, which was previously inside the exclusion zone surrounding the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant, in Japan, Wednesday, March 6, 2013.  On March 11, Japan marks two years since an earthquake and tsunami caused the plant to spew radiation into the air, contaminating a large area surrounding it. Decontamination operations continue in areas outside the zone, though few residents have returned to the town since it was re-opened. (Photo by Greg Baker/AP Photo)
