And
mean while
Australia is playing games with
recycling water up and down hill
and dreaming the wind never stops
and the sun shines at night
and goes bust
because electricity costs have gone through the roof, so to speak
and
in the liberal party if you ever dare to think about the cost of these
so called renewable and the cost to industry and try to stop the madness
your a bad guy, just ask Abbott
mean while
up in Japan
the government is trying to help the people, industry and the country by
building COAL base load power stations
that even produce electricity when its night time and when the wind doesn't blow
(bet this is news to the turnbull liberal party members', here)
Japanese government planning to build 45 new coal fired power stations to diversify supply
The Japanese government is moving ahead with its plans to build up to

Japan plans 45 new high-energy, low-emissions HELE coal fired power plants.
( ABC News )
The power plants will utilise high energy, low emissions (HELE) technology that use high-quality black coal.
Japan is the largest overseas market for Australian coal producers, taking more than a third of all exports.
Tom O'Sullivan, a Tokyo based energy consultant with Mathyos Global Advisory, said in the wake of the Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011, Japan started importing more liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Australia.
But he said the move to more coal fired power was because coal was cheaper than LNG, and the energy security was priority for the government.
"Japan needs to import 95 per cent of all its energy sources," he said.
"So it's trying to diversify its fuel sources and it doesn't want to be too reliant on any one market."
