Japanese consumers share opinions about nuclear power in range of surveys

"In a survey conducted by the government, 87 percent said they wanted to get rid of nuclear power altogether. Other polls have found opinions a little more nuanced -- 30 percent to 40 percent want a nuclear-free Japan while an equal number say nuclear power should be no more than 15 percent of total energy production."
