Abstract :
Acceptance for NPP in Japan was approximately supported by half of the population. This was composed by 11% in favour of expansion and 42% in favour for at least maintaining the current plants in operation. In comparison to previous reports, there is virtually no change in the percentage of those supporting NPP expansion but the remaining have shifted to a more sceptical or opposed view towards NPP.
