Turkey Hunt
Trevor Denny was the only
Julian kid to participate in the
inaugural Youth Turkey Hunt at
Heisse Park on March 26-27.
Sonsored by the National Wild
Turkey Federation, 6 youth's took
part with four be successful in
calling a bird into range.
The County Parks will now
review the event for possible
future hunts.

Dear EarthTalk: Were Japan
to close all its nuclear plants
following the recent damage and
radiation leaks from the March
11 earthquake and tsunamL what
could its energy mix look like?
Would it be able to provide all of
its power in other ways?
-- Richard Miller,
New York, NY
Most experts agree that Japan
would be hard pressed to close all
of its 54 nuclear reactors anytime
soon, especially given that these
plants provide over a third of the
nation's electricity supply and 11
percent of its total energy needs.
Japan relies so much on nuclear
power because it has so few
other domestic sources of energy
to draw upon• According to the
U.S. Department of Energy,
Japan is only 16 percent energy
self-sufficient, and much of this
comes from its now-wounded
nuclear power program.
Despite producing only trifling
amounts of oil domeStically from
fields off its west coast, Japan
is the third largest oil consumer
in the world behind the U.S.
and China, as well as the third
largest net importer of crude oil.
Imported oil accounts for some
45 percent of Japan's energy
needs. Besides bringing in a
lot of oil, Japan is the world's
largest importer of both coal and
liquefied natural gas. Against
this backdrop of imported fossil
fuels, it's no surprise that Japan
has embraced nuclear power;
worldwide, only the U.S. and
France produce more nuclear
energy.
Factoring in that it would take
decades to ramp up capacity
on alternative renewable energy
sources--right now hydropower
accounts for three
of Japanese energy
and etherrenewable
like solar and wind only one
percent--and that Japan must
import just about all its fossil
fuels, it becomes obvious that
the country will need to rely on
nuclear power for some time to
come, despite the risks.
"Supplying the same amount
of electricity by oil, for example,
would increase oil imports by
about 62 million metric tons .per
year, or about !.25 million barrels
per day," says Toufiq Siddiqi, a
researcher with the nonprofit
East-West Institute. He adds
that at the current price of oil per
barrel (roughly $100), switching
out nuclear for oil would cost
Japan upwards of $46 billion
per year. "Further, it would take
almost a decade to build enough
new oil, coal or natural gas-
fired power plants to provide the
equivalent amount of electricity,
and tens of billions of dollars per
year would be required to do so,"
he concludes.
In the short term, the easiest
way for Japan to make up for
its reduced nuclear output is
by importing more natural gas
and other fossil fuels, sending
its carbon footprint in the wrong
direction. What's less clear is
whether Japanese policymakers'
pre-existing plans to increase the
country's nuclear capacity--the
stated goal is to generate half
of Japan's electricity via nuclear
power within two decades as part
of a larger effort to trim carbon
dioxide emissions--will still be
followed following the Fukushima
accidents.
The Fukushima plant failures
are likely to impact the always
evolving energy mix worldwide
as well, not just within Japan.
The Fukushima-Daichi plant after two weeks of effort to control
various problems. Japan would be hard pressed to close all of
percent its 54 nuclear reactors anytime soon, especially given that these
usage plants provide over a third of the nation s electricity supply and
sources
l] percent of its total energy needs.
Many analysts expect the nuclear
disaster in Japan to cause a
shift toward the increased use
of natural gas worldwide. Of
course, the downside for the
environment is that natural
gas is a fossil fuel and its use
contributes significantly to
global warming. While solar and
wind power can take up some
of the slack, these and other
renewables• are at least decades
away from the scalability needed
to power a significant share of
a modern industrial society's
energy requirements.

Annual Talent
Practice has already started for
this years Talent Show. This year
the sophomore class of 2013 is
presenting the Talent Show on
April 27th We will be admitting
all ages this year so it is hoped
everyone will be there!
Practices are every Monday
until the Talent Show!
Members of the Elementary
school, Jr. High and High School
will all be displaying their abilities
on the stage at the Multi-purpose
room.
This is always one of the most
fun events that Julian has all
year long, with more cheering
than when the hero arrives in
the Melodrama as each grade is
represented by only the best they
have to offer.
