@Vesperto. I believe Japan has some small wave generators but have recently injected quite a bit of cash into development. This will take years though.
Most of the geothermal is under national parks but the gov is allowing some projects to go ahead with a total potential capacity of 2GW.
There is a huge push for solar right now which many people believe is the cheapest and safest option.

I stopped after reading Allen Carr's book and I can't recommend it enough. I've been smoke free for almost a year now.

“People forget that the Beatles were once a cheesy boy band" A boy band that formed themselves and did the hard graft playing in clubs night after night. They weren't hand picked because they appeal to a certain demographic. These managers and record executives know exactly what they are doing and make a shed load of money from their plastic, painting by numbers, soulless, wankywanky, baby babaaaayyyy, vomit inducing audible tripe.
I'm not bitter...

I really hope that the car was not bought specifically for the dog. I get annoyed when I see people carrying dogs. It's got four legs, make it walk!
