Wishing a quick and complete recovery to the all victims of
the Noto Peninsula Earthquake in 2024.
At 16:10 on 1 January 2024, there was a magnitude 7.6 (preliminary) earthquake in the Noto region of Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan.
Many roads are reported to be sinking or collapsing. Rescue operations in the affected areas have been delayed because of these problems.
We wish our deepest sympathies to all people who are staying at home or in shelters in the cold winter days.
We also pray for you to rebuild the region with great strength.

We must also protect the satoyama that has protected the caves...
What can we do to achieve this...?
Where do we start?
We think that we have to start little by little from "what we can do" and "what only we can do".
We believe that we have to start little by little with what we can do.
Step by step, even slowly,
What we can do, little by little,
We are starting conservation activities for the satoyama, Underground Built Heritage and the region...
Why need Management of Satoyama ?
なぜ里山保全活動が必要なのか？
Satoyama is a human-managed mountain or forest that exists side by or coexists with a human settlement.
This means that they are man-made environments...
Satoyama has provided people with many blessings. Food, building materials, energy such as firewood, etc...
As satoyama was part of people's living space, it has been naturally managed by thinning out trees...
However, in recent years, neglected Satoyama has become more and more apparent...
As the height of trees growing taller on the slopes of satoyama, their centre of gravity also shifts higher.
When strong winds blow, the risk of trees uprooting and toppling over increases, causing a disaster prevention problem.
The risk of landslides increases as the number of neglected bamboo forests increases, which is also a disaster prevention problem.
This is why the management of satoyama is necessary to guarantee the safety of human settlements and schoolchildren on their way to and from school!

"Measurement of All Trees" to know the satoyama
First of all, how many trees of what type are there in this satoyama? What is the diameter and height of the trees? Where are they located?
We need a 'Measurement of Diameter of All Trees' to find out about the vegetation in this satoyama !
-
We are looking for researchers and experts to help us!
-
We need to secure funding for the purchase of survey equipment and materials!
-
And we are looking for survey volunteers!

Tree management, pruning and logging
Under Preparation
~ Currently preparing !! ~
Consider logging and pruning problematic trees that can be identified in every tree survey ... but at a very high cost.
Secure logging and pruning costs for tall trees !!
