Japan's CO2 emissions are up 11% relative to 1990, when they are supposedly planning to go down 21% by 2030.

“They’re aware that Japan has fared perfectly well without nuclear power for almost two years.” is not really accurate CO2 into account.

Ironically coal plants release invisible, cancer-causing radioactive particles into the air, and nuclear plants generally don't.
