Pollution and
environment
From 1972, pollution problems came to
be widely caught with the viewpoint of an environmental problem
by Ministry of Environment (at that time old name" Environment
Agency"), and the pollution white paper's name changed the
environmental white paper from this year.
First of all, pollution means artificial destruction of the living
environment and natural environment which are caused in the present
capitalism production system.
Pollutions of today's in Japan are according to water, soil, underground
contamination, industrial waste, exhaust gas of cars, noise on streets,
and weite of the environmental destruction generated through consumption
habits, such as a garbage problems, are also high.
Furthermore, as problems of the earth scale, such as air pollution,
acid rain, sea pollution and global warming are becoming very big
matters.
In Japan Ministry of Environment and meny NGOs (non-governmental
organization) are tackling to these problems, and Internet sites
are also gone up to a large number
Then, we, Japan plaza, want to take up these problems for topics
only, such as "Automobile emission control of Tokyo Metropolitan"and
"Correspondence of Japanese government to the Kyoto Protocol".
