Shimokawa, Forest Futuer City with people shining
This proposal is focused on forests. It aims to consolidate a local community where the children, the elderly, and disabled people have a comfortable life with mutual support and cooperation, and where they can learn from the forest and enjoy their lives in good health, supply fuel to outside areas, and be fully self-sufficient by employing renewable sources centered on the forest biomass by creating an independent forest industry that can make the best profit of their abundant forest resources as a model of a “Forest Future City.” This proposal also aims to deploy sales of political measures and business packages from the “Forest Future City” to smaller rural municipalities in other Asian countries.
