Mr. Yoda feels the challenge for Japan is to create a new philosophy of energy use that melds Japan's 20th century prosperity with its ancient respect for the enduring value and sustenance of nature. Noting that Japan has had unfettered access to the world's energy resources for nearly a half century, in some nations worsening conditions thereby, he feels it now has a responsibility to ease and improve the plight of others. Drawing from its vast intellectual warehouse, he says Japan should willingly distribute its wealth of scientific and technical knowledge. Further, he feels Japan should become a model for energy efficiency in all stages of energy generation, conversion, distribution, and consumption. He also makes positive recommendations for their leadership in nuclear power, renewable energy, and environmental pollution abatement and control.
