Too many vending machines?

Too many vending machines?

TOKYO, Japan - A man buys a beverage from a vending machine in Tokyo on May 21, 2011. Nongovernmental groups and local authorities are taking actions to reduce the number of vending machines operating in the country -- about 5.2 million -- following moves by the industry and households to conserve power to cope with Tokyo Electric Power Co.'s damaged power supply capacity.

    A staff member selects photovoltaic panels to be sent to a photovoltaic power station in Cele County of Hotan Prefecture, at the workshop of a new energy company in Ruoqiang County, Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture of Bayingolin, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, on Sept. 22, 2025. Xinjiang, a region rich in solar and wind energy resources, has vigorously developed the new energy industry in recent years, accelerating the construction of large-scale wind and photovoltaic power base projects. A 750-kilovolt (kV) "power expressway loop," the country's largest of its kind, has taken shape throughout Xinjiang, providing strong support for efficient energy allocation. Today, about one third of the electricity transmitted in Xinjiang comes from clean energy sources such as wind and solar power. It transmits over 270 billion kilowatt-hours of green electricity to other regions. Besides, an increasing number of companies are developing clean energy in Xinjiang, driving the region's green development.

                      Paul Watson landed at Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle airport after spending 5 months in detention in Nuuk, Denmark, a country which rejected Japan's extradition request on Tuesday. He is a 74-year-old man, committed for around fifty years to the defense of whales and known for his punchy actions, aroused an outpouring of sympathy in France where the authorities had asked Denmark not to extradite him, as well as among environmental defenders.
