  1. Plenty of opportunities for geothermal. They can be built to not disturb the nations obsession with onsen. Geothermal doesn't melt down and it doesn't have any pollutants, especially in closed loop systems. As far as extracting hydrogen from methane hydrate from the ocean floor or even from regular gas, wouldnt it be more straightforward and simpler to just use water electrolysis to get the hydrogen? Solar and wind could provide enough power for that.

  4. Even more environmentally friendly and less effort to just use water electrolysis. Just need 2-5 seed power plants (geo, solar, hydro, wind) around the country to power the electolysis, fresh or salt water (not pure water), amd small amount of platinum for the plates. The power plants can directly power electric trains and vehicles via catenary cables or third rail, and houses and businesses. The hydrogen can be used as fuel cells for backup generators, off-catenary-wire vehicles, and lighter ships. Liquefied hydrogen can be used for commercial flight and heavy ships.

  5.  @herrputschy54  Did Japanese citizens affected at least get a class action lawsuit against TEPCO (the power company) or the govt? I don't recall them getting anything except temporary housing that was quickly withdrawn and claims that went nowhere. At least when airbags kill you, you can sue the pants off the company...

  9. Long vowel before another vowel, single consonant, or consonant cluster (eg TH). Long vowels in English differ from continental long vowels (eg short a is cAt, long a is kAte; short e is pEt, long e is pEte; short i is bIt, long i is bIte). Some dialects don't consider TH as a consonant cluster and retain a short vowel, hence the difference between the pronunciation of methane, etc. 🇨🇦🇬🇧🇳🇿🇦🇺🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

  14.  @w8stral  Notice I used a blend of renewables, not just wind. 😉

  15.  jomax clux  Water electrolysis separates oxygen from the water with no by-products other than the above. Solar, wind, hydro, geo, etc could produce by standard electricity to power water electolysis. No gas required. While water electrolysis of pure water takes more energy, both fresh and salt waters have nsturally occurring minerals to reduce power input required.
