Geothermal energy in Japan Storm in a hot tub Clean bodies versus clean energy

After the Nuclear disaster in Fukushima last year, 54 of Japan's 55 Nuclear Reactors were temporarily shut
down, and since then, Japan has slowly been losing their Nuclear power. This article talks about how Onsen, which are Japanese hot springs, are very popular in Japan and they want to have more of them, but they just do not have the energy to make more since Nuclear Power made up two thirds of Japan's total energy output. The Japanese are trying to find a new way to power these Onsen with alternative energy sources like the Geothermal kind. Now Japan is lifting bans on Geothermal energy in other areas as well. I think it is great that Japan has found another power source that they can use while their nuclear energy is failing.
