I saw this in Tokyo on my way from the airport to my hotel. Thousands of people are demonstrating in Tokyo to stop nuclear reactors from restarting. What's funny is that there are try few news coverage by media in Japan.

Room temperature in Japan

Jul

8

The office temperature is set to around 28C (81F) in Japan. I do not think it has anything to do with conserving energy. People here, specially female workers, complain about the room temperature being too low.

I don't think it is productive to have the room temperature this high. At least last few years, people are not expected to wear ties.

Moving from Tokyo to Ashiya

Jul

I just arrived at my home in Ashiya using Japan Rail. Firsr I took Shinkansen from Tokyo to Shin-Osaka, then I tool local trail from Shin Osaka to Ashiya. Very easy connection.

It was very interesting when they apologize for the train being laster for 3 minutes.
