In this episode, I explore a playful yet thought-provoking idea: the “Hikikomori Energy Industry.” In Japan, many people view hikikomori—those who withdraw from society—as useless. But what if staying in bed could actually contribute to the world? From capturing carbon dioxide through simple breathing, to generating methane energy from human waste, science already points to surprising possibilities. I connect these ideas with the old Japanese tale of “Three-Year Taro,” who slept for years before saving his village. Beyond humor, this story asks us to see every person as having value, even in unexpected ways.
