"The news breaks a month after Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda called for a tenfold increase in the country's use of solar power by 2020. The government is considering subsidies to boost the industry."
Wow. I've lived in Japan and I like it here better, but I'm frustrated with our government over a number of things. I wish our country had a govennment that would make these kinds of quick decisions and execute said decisions with progressive, intelligent policies that generate jobs and are forward thinking. But NOOOO...were still mired in the "there's no global warming" debate. Good grief!

It's an 'Evil Oil Company'(Royal Dutch Shell subsidiary Showa Shell Sekiyu) that is doing this, NOT the "government". |
