Fukushima stoked the fears that power that sentiment, and helped lead them to their current totally predictable economic plummet. What happens when you shut down all your fission power plants, but don't have solar, wind, hydro, or geothermal power ready, and have no way of building enough storage to handle the intermittency of solar and wind? Well, you import petrochemicals from potentially-hostile foreign countries and burn them.
