4 out of 5 want nuclear reactors scrapped in Japan

TOKYO, June 19, Kyodo

More than four out of five Japanese want the nation's 54 nuclear reactors to be decommissioned either immediately or gradually in the wake of the crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, a poll reported by the Tokyo Shimbun daily showed Sunday.

Only 14 percent said the reactors should continue operations while 82 percent backed their decommissioning, showing a marked lack of confidence in the nation's atomic energy policy, according to the June 11-12 poll.

In a breakdown, a total of 54 percent of respondents said the reactors should be decommissioned ''while taking into account the power supply-and-demand situation,'' followed by 19 percent who want decommissioning to ''start with ones undergoing periodic checks'' and 9 percent who called for immediate scrapping of nuclear plants.

Even with 40 new nuclear

Even with 40 new nuclear reactors in China, nuclear power will still produce only 4% of the PRC's energy needs. For just 4%, is it worth having so many (massive-sized) nuclear reactors?
