Toward a rich life to live together with the forest

 

At schools that have long carried out CFP, rich forests have been formed thanks to continuous silviculture activities.  Not only water retention capacity has increased and landslide disaster risk has decreased, it has also become possible to enjoy the blessings of the forest such as mushrooms and wild vegetables.

In order to leave to the next generation that forest giving many blessings, it is also important to teach the method of protecting the forests. Since we organized camps for preventing wildfire and conducted training for quickly responding when a fire has occurred, the local residents are ready for the occurrence of fires. In the future, we want to further promote training by devising the ways of maintaining and utilizing forests that have already been developed.
