Abstract
  • Due to the development, Japan lost more than half of seaweed beds because of reclamations, water brake constructions and water pollution after the WWII. As a result, coastal fisheries production decreased from 2 million metric tons to 1.5 million metric tons. Building a forest in the sea has been paid much attention. This is shown both public and private approaches in Japan to cope with this problem from the points of building a forest in the sea with video (20 minutes) and power point (10 minutes) presentation. The video shows ecological characteristics of marine forests and government approaches to enhance seaweeds beds. On the other hand, the power point presentation show a model of volunteer activities led by a non-profit organization Marine Forest Promotion Society: Iki Tobu Fisheries Cooperative Association in Nagasaki Prefecture overcome the problem.
