A snowball has a better chance in hell than getting Abe to back off from his push to restart the reactors.

Unfortunately, renewable energy on national scale is still not commercially viable. It’s either nuclear or lots of coal and gas plants. Nuclear produces zero greenhouse gases.

The Government the Nuclear industry have absolutely no idea how to, what to do about the mess THEY created. The head long thrust to restart an industry that has a proven track record of discarding responsibility for humans, and a focus on profits again at the expense of tax paying humans is obvious. As long as the cash rolls in why would they bother to care.

Good on them. Hope they can galvanize the public to actively campaign against the idiocy that is Nuke power and the idiotic LDP
Goodlucktoyou
I get so much solar energy I don’t know what to do with it. I also like taking picnics at dams and definitely enjoy onsens.

Japan's Abe government already restarted plural nuclear power plants in western Japan.
But nuclear disaster in western Japan will contaminate more extensive area by wind direction than Fukushima disaster 2011.
Many people live in leeward of nuclear plants but
Nobody inspect even reliability of evacuation plans.
Japan's government still insists : "We restart nuclear power plants that safety was confirmed" "Japan's nuclear regulation agency is independent organization".
but Japan's nuclear regulation authorities said : "We do not guarantee safety of nuclear power plants".
and Executives of Japan's nuclear regulation agency is occupied by beneficiary of nuclear industries.

It may cost travel money but Mr. Hosokawa and others need to visit at least one state that has no nuclear power plants but the biggest city business operate 24 hours a day lighted operation.
