The ones I have seen photos of don't, I think they are all located near the sea so use seawater. I suppose with the now realised danger of tsunami as well as earthquakes, this policy might change. My understanding now of the Fukushima failure is that the damage to the emergency cooling occurred due to the tsunami, not the earthquake itself.
The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant in Japan holds the record for the most cooling towers, featuring a total of 7 cooling towers. This facility is notable not only for its number of cooling towers but also for being one of the largest nuclear power plants in the world in terms of electrical output. The plant is located on the coast of the Sea of Japan and plays a significant role in the region's energy supply.
The power plant were where they were because the generators needed cool water for the cooling systems at the plant.
Japan has nuclear power plants but no nuclear weapons
The tsunami wiped out almost all of Japan knocking down many buildings such as skyscrapers and nuclear power plants that were operating in Japan. The tsunami destroyed the nuclear power plants and radiation leaked out which caused a raging panic among the people of Japan.
53 according to Wikipedia.

lots
Some people do not agree with Japan building and using nuclear power plants because twenty percent of the worlds earthquakes occur in Japan which causes dangers for the people living in Japan.
They both cuased nuclear melt downs in power plants.
No, I'm sure there is no connection
Nuclear Plants give off radiation, however when some of the nuclear plants in Japan were destroyed, some of the radiation did travel here but the radiation it sent here isn't strong enough to do any damage :)
