This Week’s Column

GEPR introduce various opinions about Energy problems. We interviewed Mr. Takejiro Sueyoshi, a special adviser UNEP・FI and an opinion leader on environmental issues in Japan.

“Nuclear Power Phase-out is the National Consensus = Hope for Social Changes by Renewable Energies “(English translation coming soon)

Mr. Sueyoshi points out that Japanese public opinion came to a settlement for the nuclear power phase-out after the nuclear power accident. The government, however, has no realistic and long-term perspectives to practice it. He also insists that we should nurture renewable energies which are primary means for denuclearization.
