California Renewable Energy full transition 2018.12

<California is a unique renewable energy policy.>

In response to the Trump regime, which proved to be withdrawn from the "Paris Agreement", the international Framework for global warming countermeasures, California will promote its own state-level global warming strategy. As a medium-term target, we will raise the power generation ratio by renewable energy such as wind, solar, hydro, etc. to electricity companies in the state to 60% by the end of 30%.

Government buildings and other state-related facilities switch to renewable energy in the year of target achievement It is said that it is It will be implemented from January next year. In the United States, the difference between the central government and the local government is clear about environmental policy.

ESCO and the resource company business 1999.05.15

In the Environmental business field, energy conservation and resource-related business are likely to stand up. In the energy saving business, various technologies, products, and services related to energy saving and power saving are born to promote the rationalization of the use of energies. In Europe and the United States, it is called the Energy Service Company (ESCO) business, and it is in full swing as a business to provide the facilities, technology, manpower, and funds to enable energy saving and power saving for existing construction and factories.

In the Japan, it is commercialized for the enterprise, and energy saving and the power saving equipment are becoming popular gradually in the general process. The resource Service company business related to the resource saving if you want there is a business that such a ESCO business leads to energy saving, and it is not amusing to be commercialized in earnest. It is a support business that re-emphasizes production-oriented social structures and is a "resource saving" type. For each company and local government, we have developed a small amount of high-value-added products, the development of recycled resource-based product, the resource procurement of products, and the consulting of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for all production, distribution, consumption and disposal. It can be said that this is a comprehensive project to promote resource saving such as introduction of recycling technology and clustering of wastes.

This business is in full swing to promote resource saving and recycling technology. Japan imports vast amounts of natural resources from overseas and exports them to foreign countries as processed goods. Therefore, it is discharged to a large amount of waste and domestic. 2.2 billion tonnes of resources flowed in 1996. Of these, 1.29 billion tons are discharged after becoming new stock, such as civil engineering buildings, but only 230 million tons of recycled materials are used. Less than 900 million tonnes of waste are required, and the industrial wastes, 50 million tons, are general waste. The resource company business inevitably comes into view in the drastic improvement of the resource problem.

Eco-tour 1998.07.15

Compared to the recession, the travel agency seems to have fared still more. The total sales of 65 domestic companies were 6. 5 trillion yen and listen. However, "environmental preservation" is becoming a useful factor in the planning and management of attracting customers even in the travel agency. Recently, the Eco-tour as a fashion style of a new travel which harmonizes tourism and the environment is established, and popularity is increasing. The Eco-tour began in the 1960s Nordic. At the end of the 1980s, the new coinage of "eco-tourism" is in vogue in the United States and Canada. Tourism has grown significantly as an industry that brings economic benefits, but the traditional ways of travel are not only for travelers, but also for the receiving side. Therefore, the environmental destruction by the tourism development of the profit priority increased. The purpose of eco-tours is to foster an environmental mind that observes, understands, and leaves a legacy to the future through travel, on the assumption that the environmental impact of the traditional environment is minimized. This includes the unique culture of the region and enhances the interest in nature conservation after travelers acquire knowledge and recognition.

”Learning from Ancestors”

The United Nations University Institute for Sustainability and Advanced Studies (UNU-IAS) inaugurated the traditional Knowledge Initiative in 2007 to build further understanding and recognition of traditional knowledge and to convey initiatives by indigenous peoples, local communities and policymakers. The initiative studies the use of indigenous peoples ' current practices and the knowledge they have cultivated for many years. Research on the initiative is extremely important for a world where widespread development has caused so many problems.

In fact, modern society should be able to learn valuable insights and lessons from past indigenous societies on how to use resources efficiently and how to improve waste management systems. Between 2000 and 2050, the world's population is projected to increase by 50%, the world's economic activity is 500%, and the world's energy and resource utilization is 300%. These trends will stress more on the resources and Environment of the Earth, which is already multiplying a significant load. During the 1992 Earth Summit, world leaders warned that "the main reason for the constant deterioration of the global environment is the steady increase in the production and consumption and disposal of goods."

At the same time, the Rio Declaration affirmed that the "green economy" policy against sustainable development and the eradication of Poverty promotes sustainable and inclusive economic growth and promotes sustainable consumption and production. Resource utilization and waste management tend to be significantly different in developed and developing countries. If human life and society have unlimited abundance, the resources consumed and the waste produced (solid and liquid) will be many. Therefore, developed countries consume more energy, water, metal and plastic than developing countries. In the data of the World Bank of 2012, it was seen so.
The average American resident is 3.5 kg of waste per day, but for some African urban residents, less than 200 grams per person per day. In the initiative, the rate of waste generation in developed countries also shows a trend of stabilization or gradual increase. This trend reflects the maturity of the economic system of the industrialized nations and reflects a gradual increase or decrease in population. In order to ensure that economic growth does not lead to an increase in waste as it is, advanced countries have proposed efforts to improve resource efficiency and maximize the use of waste countermeasures, reuse and recycling.

On the other hand, in developing countries, the rate of waste generation has increased rapidly due to economic growth and urbanization. According to the World Bank, the rate of increase in waste generation rates will be fastest in Africa and Asia in the near future. For example, the waste discharged from sub-Saharan Africa over the next two decades is expected to triple. China will overtake the United States in 2004.
It is now the world's largest solid waste emission country. In many cities in developing countries, it is still difficult to provide the people with waste recovery and appropriate processing systems. As a result, the atmosphere, water and soil are contaminated, and public health has a negative impact. However, proper waste management can create employment opportunities and reduce the ecological footprint of society.

Therefore, in the policy and institutional design of solid wastes, we suggest that we should aim to minimize the generation of waste and to make the best use of waste material reuse and recycling. Technological innovations are often seen as answers to modern waste problems. But what can we learn from the historical methods that the great ancient societies, such as the Aztec tribe of the Mexico, were taking advantage of? How will past systems, such as Aztec waste management and resource utilization, relate to the modern world?

The treaty requires that new shipbuilding be equipped with equipment that properly handles ballast water since 2009. "This processing unit is expected to be in demand for more than two trillion yen in the world" (Eco-business Network Research) Other, the damage measures caused by the biological movement, it is no doubt that an immense market will be created. This is business opportunities in the marine Japan of the environmental technology nation.

We need a new agency with a thousand researchers 1998.10.15

The National Institute of Environmental Research announced a proposal to "not be able to respond to the environmental problems of the century if we do not have a research institution of 1,000 researchers." Currently, with the rapid increase in research themes, researchers at the institute remain flat with 180 people, and in 10 years they should be United States-level 3000. In the research budget, we estimate that we need to allocate 100 billion items to new institutions for about 10 billion yen in the current year.

The Renovation and renewal business of housing 1998.11.15

The "Renovation and renewal" business of housing, is expected to grow to a market that exceeds 20 trillion yen in fiscal 2015. The average service life of a Japan residence is very short with about 25 years. Compared with the 75 years of the United States, 44 years of the United Kingdom, it is well below considering the difference of the building method such as the wooden house and the brick. In the past, construction and renovation of new buildings has helped Japan domestic building demand. The construction industry has grown steadily in proportion to economic growth, and it can be said that the result of having continued the Bill de and scrap in that. According to the undisclosed of the Ministry of Construction and the Institute for Construction Economics, the maintenance and repair work for the entire construction industry in 1995 was 12.5 trillion yen. This is a total of 15.2% of all construction, and it has remained stable for the past six years. However, in Europe and the United States, it has exceeded 30% of United Kingdom, and has already grown to a scale comparable to the new market.

Minpaku - Growing share business in Japan 1

With the expansion of the service industry due to changes in the industrial structure, the share business is expanding. Share is a point of share, but in addition to the ban "Minpaku" in this June, already established as a new industry, such as cars and bicycles, offices. I tried to follow the actual business of the share. What is the share business? The definition of a shared business is not strictly defined. In general, "services that can be used by others to use the Internet, such as idle assets held by individuals" or. Recently, not only individuals, but also companies have been widely entered. Car sharing has already been commercialized by the parking lot management company and the car rental company mainly in the city part. The hotel is expected to expand its new business as an alternative facility for hotels in anticipation of the growing tourist. In this area, the "Air Bee and Bee" Company has grown to a huge "hotel chain" with more than 4.5 million registered properties in United States. -The future of share business is prominent in the exchange of things such as cars and rooms, from now time and know-how, wisdom and said intangible things can also be expected to be targeted. The business of sharing the professional ability such as acting on behalf of the housework general and the language lesson, and the design and the program construction is likely to become widespread. Share business is a low barriers to entry, if you have a PC or smartphone mechanism to tie the supply and demand is possible business idea. It's better to have a more mobile business place than a big company. It is also possible to contribute to the revitalization of the local economy in the local economy by utilizing human resources buried the region.

To Nature reproduction type Public Works 2003.03.20 (1)

The company entered a period of transition from public works that caused deterioration of the environment to natural rebuild-type public works. Last December, the governor of Kumamoto Prefecture, Yoshiko Seya, announced that it would immediately take the removal work after renewing water rights until March 31, 2003, when the water rights of the prefectural Arase Dam Country (50 years) expired on March 31, 2002. In the background of this nationwide first dam removal policy, there is a reason such as environmental deterioration of the Kuma River, fiscal pressure by the repair cost of dam embankment and the generator, and less than 1% of the demand amount of total electricity in the prefecture. In the midst of this dam, Yatsushiro-gun, the "devastating impact of the fishery aquaculture industry due to the deterioration of the natural environment" is a keen peep. The removal of this arase dam is inevitable now, the impact on the existing dam operation and new dam construction of 2700 group size combined nationwide. United States the dam kingdom, where the dam is believed to be a symbol of progress and prosperity, the 75000 more than 50 years have passed since the 1990s, when dams have been removed from the 90 's, and more than 500 dams have been removed. Doubts about water quality, environmental deterioration, flood control and economic effect by dam. Furthermore, in some states of United States, if an accident occurs due to dams, state laws are enacted to impose the responsibility on the dam owners, and they are directing the dam to be removed. After the dam removal in the United States, a lot of schools of fish are confirmed one year later, and the return to nature is advanced. Then, a new industry is born. In addition to the dam removal overseas, reclamation, wetland, and other natural environmental regeneration are the main projects for public works. The regenerated nature contributes to the creation of key industries in the region, including fisheries and hydrophilic tourism, as well as water purification. It has been proven that the rebuilding of the environment is not simply "natural regeneration", but it is effective for economic and regional activity. It is wiser to pursue the possibility of a big business opportunity in a fresh public works flow such as the dam removal, the multi-nature of the river and the reclaimed land.

<A variety of organisms from Japan cross the sea and have been in various parts of the world. >

Occasionally, it is reported the danger of foreign species such as the hiali and poison spiders that came from abroad in TV and the newspaper, but is not known unexpectedly on the other hand, a variety of organisms of the Japan cross the Sea, In each country, there are few cases that are causing the destruction of ecological systems and industrial activities.

Cross-border foreign species Mondai has become increasingly serious as globalization of trade spreads. Major blow to the ecosystem and water industry of the sea in recent years, marine pollution by waste plastic, such as radioactive water Runaway, but is calling the topic as international news, it has been seen as a problem from the past is a variety of biological destruction of the sea and marine and water industry damage and the like. New Zealand Among the fish farms in the South Island, it is said that the Japan seaweed damage is not unusual. "The mussels that I raised with great pains are ruined" and the voice of the criticism is constant. As of 2017, the survey is spreading damage throughout the country. Brown seaweed from Japan is hanging around the mussels in aquaculture. The mussels will not be able to consume seawater, and it may be difficult to ship because of suffocation or poor growth. I hear that native species of Japan other than wakame are rampaging in other areas. In the United States, "scum" and "Oohari Ali" and made in Japan are very active.

United States slowdown in greenhouse gas emissions 1999.11.15

The U.S. Department of Energy announces its 98-year global warming gas emissions. 1.803 billion tonnes to 97 compared to 1997. 2% increased slightly (of which CO2 is equal to 1.495 billion tons). 3 percent increase). Economic growth rate in 1998 3. 9 per cent significantly above. In addition to reducing the use of fuel in the steel and chemical industries, the reduction in the automotive sector has been noticeable, but the ministry has said that it will not necessarily continue to decelerate emissions after 1999, removing special factors such as mild winter and General Motors's strike.

Import and sales of environmental equipment from overseas 1998.8.15

The environmental business market is steadily expanding. More than 40% of listed companies and about 20% of unlisted companies are already developing or planning environmental business. The overall sales trend is on the rise. Government policies, policies, laws and regulations, corporate-side environmental activities, and the improvement of civic consciousness to the environment are the winds of expansion. Because an environmental business item can counts 800, it is thought that there is always a business opportunity on the extension of the work of the production. If the interest and awareness of environmental issues are deepened and it becomes a radar, newcomers should not be so difficult. There are a number of new ways to enter the market even if there is no adequate environmental resources for the new entrants. One of them is import and sale of environmental equipment from overseas. There are a lot of outstanding environmental equipment and goods of life-size not found in Japan country in the European and American countries called the Environment advanced country. The number is also rich, the quality is easy to operate high and the price is positively cheap. For example, there is no such thing as enumeration, such as Australia power saving device, Denmark wind power generator, United Kingdom water quality analysis equipment, and environmental goods of the United States made daily necessities. There is such a success example. The president of a small and medium-sized company who succeeded in the import and sale of a compressed reduction vessel convenient for the transportation and storage of Sweden-made garbage four years ago, "insight to choose a product, foresight to read the destination of the law, if there is a marketing power," he said. It was a success after thoroughly examining the European and American recycling-related laws and anticipating the establishment of a similar law in the Japan (container and packaging recycling law). As a source of information on imports, there is an environmental equipment exhibition that will be held in Japan first. Search on the Internet is also valid. Information can be caught from overseas environmental magazines. The trend of environmental goods in each country is examined in the Japan Trade Promotion Association (JETRO). A new entry into the environment business by the import and sale from overseas in a small business is high probability of success. It is also possible to create a trading company specializing in environmental concerns.

Forests absorb and accumulate about 11% of CO2 emissions in 1990 years

The amount of CO2 that is absorbed and accumulated by the forest and wood products, such as Wagueningen University of Netherlands, was investigated in six countries and one region, such as Japan and the United States. As a result, the Japan estimates that forests and timber products absorb and accumulate about 11% of the CO2 emissions for 90 years. Although the calculation method of CO2 absorption is determined by the Global warming Prevention conference in the Fall of 2000, the Japan which pledged to reduce by 6% compared with 90 years is recognized as a 5% increase in emissions.

The fifth meeting of the Climate Change Framework treaty held in Germany ended on November 5. While many countries, including the EU and the Japan, have adopted the decision to "aim for an early entry into force" of the Kyoto Protocol, the United States "will not ratify until it is guaranteed to participate in the suppression of emissions in developing countries." In addition, all of the "flexibility measures" such as emissions trading were postponed until the next meeting to be decided.

The origin of eco tour in Japan 1998.07.15

Under the recession, the travel agency still seems to have fared still more. The total sales of 65 domestic companies were 6. 5 trillion yen and listen. However, "environmental preservation" is becoming a useful factor in the planning and management of attracting customers even in the travel agency.

Recently, the Eco-tour as a fashion style of a new travel which harmonizes tourism and the environment is established, and popularity is increasing. The Eco-tour began in the 1960s Nordic. At the end of the 1980s, the new coinage of "eco-tourism" is in vogue in the United States and Canada. Tourism has grown significantly as an industry that brings economic benefits, but the traditional ways of travel are not only for travelers, but also for the receiving side.

As a result, the natural environment as a tourist resource is protected. In recent years, various eco-tours have been planned in the Japan. In 1994, at the hands of the Japan Nature Conservation Association Japan Committee on Eco-Tour guidelines

①A small group of people visiting nature and culture.
②Nature conservation, respect for local culture.
③A guide with environmental ethics.
④A facility that avoids adverse effects on nature.
⑤Return profits to protected areas and residents.

One of the most popular styles of eco-Tours is working tours and steady tours. It is a tour incorporating nature conservation and volunteer activities into the schedule. There are more and more participants each year. The Eco tour is likely to break though it leaves the problem of the visitor, the experience of the profit side, and the staff training of the guide post.
