This article strongly argues for restarting nuclear power plants, connecting the total shutdown after the Fukushima accident, the increase in fossil-fuel power generation, the loss of 15 trillion yen in national wealth, and the torrential rains that struck western Japan.

Since the Fukushima accident of March 11, 2011, Japan has completely stopped all of its nuclear power plants and, in only a few years, has burned 15 trillion yen’s worth of fossil fuels.
I was stunned while watching the noon news.
It was because the whole of western Japan had been struck by torrential rains, as if after the arrival of a tsunami.
It was because scenes of flooding like those seen in tropical and subtropical regions were striking the whole of western Japan.
I even began to feel anger.
Since the Fukushima accident of March 11, 2011, Japan has completely stopped all of its nuclear power plants and, in only a few years, has burned 15 trillion yen’s worth of fossil fuels.
On top of that, the CO2 emissions of neighboring China are, needless to say, among the largest in the world, along with India.
Its air pollution is at an unprecedented level, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is not an environment in which people can live.
The main reason is that China is a one-party dictatorship ruled by the Communist Party, but because I think of this air pollution, China alone is a place I have absolutely no desire to visit.
There is no doubt that since 2011, after the total shutdown of nuclear power plants, Japan must have been rapidly warming.
Considering the enormous amount of electricity generated by a single nuclear power plant, my inference must be correct.
The aforementioned people, who by now may be called the “Three Villains of the Hidden Fortress,” together with Asahi Shimbun, have created an absolute opposition to nuclear power plants, a movement that is like a regression from civilization, and is in fact the self-interested maneuvering of worthless people; and Asahi Shimbun, which is not only a mass of pseudo-moralism but is also possessed by the disease called anti-Japanese sentiment, continues to oppose the restart of nuclear power plants.
Japanese people who have sympathized with them and, through unscientific pseudo-moralism, have advocated absolute opposition to nuclear power plants.
If a major earthquake strikes, your house will vanish; if torrential rains like this strike, your house will be submerged or collapse.
But only nuclear power plants will absolutely not be submerged or collapse.
Why?
Because they are the most robust buildings humanity has ever constructed.
Looking at today’s scenes, as if western Japan had been submerged, what I thought was this: immediately restart all nuclear power plants!
Let us sharply reduce fossil-fuel power generation at once.
If we do so, surely the frequent torrential rains and tornadoes that have been striking Japan over the past several years will subside.
