Good sign for our elections. Things are leaning left.
I just wish the CDP (the biggest player on the left in Japan) weren’t against nuclear energy. But other than that I too am pleased to see it. Maybe if they can buck their traditionalist conservative authoritarian streak, their country may finally make a dent in its persistent stagnation.
Nuclear energy is only a stopgap measure anyway. It still uses a non-renewable resource. Plus, uranium mining is a disaster.
I’m not worried about nuclear safety, I’m just not a fan of replacing a non-renewable resource with another non-renewable resource. Especially one that takes years to get up and running. We don’t really have those years to wait.
