I searched on the Internet, and it looks like Japan has 18 geothermal power plants.
So it's not like geothermal energy is completely not used in Japan.
It looks like only the ratio is low.
In my opinion, I don't think we should just wait for the government to have interest in the geothermal energy.
I think it's us who's the one to make a change.
Because most people use nuclear power energy, other eco-friendly energy systems are not used.
Thermal power plants has problems like carbon dioxide emissions, hydroelectric power plants destroys forests by building dams, and nuclear power plants has problems, as you know, like radio active contamination.
We should use solar energy, wind power energy, biomass energy, and of course, geothermal energy. These are an example of eco-friendly energy.
Although it's expensive, if we all start using them in exchange for the non-eco-friendly ones I mentioned above, the charges will eventually get cheaper, and the environment will be much better.
