Shimokita Peninsula, Higashidori Village、Sketch of windmill for wind power generation in Iwaya area。On a plateau-shaped mountain overlooking the Tsugaru Strait、It is the area where wind turbines of the same purpose are lined up most intensively in Japan today.。Since the Fukushima nuclear accident、It is also a symbol of "natural renewable energy" that has suddenly begun to be in the limelight.。A dozen kilometers south of here、It is now becoming a symbol of evil、There is a nuclear power plant (Higashi-dori Nuclear power plant)。Higashidori is, so to speak, a "village where angels and demons live together"。

I read a book last week。"Forest saturation" (Takehiko Ota、2012.NHK Books)。Mr. Ota、"The idea that nature is best left untouched" should be abandoned。Deny Satoyama's idea that "big trees should not be cut down"。"Japanese forests are already saturated、Is it a new nature to leave this saturated state? Invite a disaster "。To the current emotional increase in nature orientation、In a sense, it looks like it's pouring water、If you walk while actually sketching the mountains and the coast, you will be convinced in many ways.。

Considering energy issues with such a macroscopic historical eye、Suddenly there is a danger of pressing for a choice between nuclear power and renewable energy。"A village where angels and demons live together" sees trees and does not see forests、It may be a microcosm of modern Japanese thinking。

Recently、I can't hear my right ear (the left ear is normal)。Hearing loss is severe, especially in the human conversation range。There may be various causes、Looking only at the results、You don't have to ask me crap、Maybe it ’s a good thing、I thought half seriously。

The sketch is a windmill for wind power generation in the Iwaya district of Higashidori Village, Aomori Prefecture, and a view of the Tsugaru Straits and the direction of Omazaki (Omazaki is a peninsula that looks like a sketch)、Further behind。I couldn't see it with the naked eye on this day)。right now、This Iwaya area is the place where the wind turbines for power generation are most concentrated in Japan.。Of the windmill、A little over 60m from the ground to the base of the wings。It seems that the diameter of the blade is still a little over 60m、When any of the wings stands vertically、The height of its tip from the ground is huge, reaching about 100m.。From low frequencies when you go by、Sounds of various frequencies felt by the five senses shake the body。

The Tohoku Electric Power Higashidori Nuclear Power Plant is only a dozen kilometers away from here.。While in the same village、One is renewable energy, which is bearing great expectations.、One is a nuclear power plant that is now regarded as an evil incarnation.。Is it a village where angels and demons live together? Honestly、In Japan full of contradictions、For this simple dualism of Japanese people with addiction syndrome (including myself)、I'm so anxious that I can't keep up。2030Mr. Noda, who said that he would promote the abolition of nuclear power plants in the 1980s、I shook myself in less than a week、The Senkaku issue that was so noisy、If the Chinese demonstrations have subsided a little, the coverage will be reduced to a few hundredths.、Has disappeared from the paper。It looks as if Takeshima wasn't there from the beginning。

by the way、I'm also worried about tinnitus in my left ear。So that you don't have to listen to this story、The brain may have begun self-defense。
