Tomorrow energies

An episode from the series HOPEFUL EARTH

Synopsis

Japan's population growth in the 20th century led to extremely dense urbanization and considerable resource consumption.

Today, the country seeks to preserve its environment (many protected areas, recycling, anti-diesel policy in Tokyo...) and ecology is a consideration at all levels, both from the traditional and artisanal point of view and within large companies that integrate the issue of environmental impact into their development.
