Japan is jumping on the green energy train. They are attempting to make the switch from nuclear to wind energy. After the mishap in Fukushima, off the coast an offshore project has begun to replace the old ways. Their hopes is to have 140 wind turbines by 2020 replacing the energy output from one reactor.
Currently, many turbines are restricted to designated farms, and in shallow waters. Japanese technology allows for floating turbines, expanding limitations on building sites.
This is an investment. Not just for energy, but for jobs. Where over 7% are still unemployed, we need occupations which grant our nation the chance to achieve the American dream.
