Higashi
By observing the small creatures that support the rich ecosystem in tidepools, and studying about the fish that live on the Tatsukushi Coast and the environment of the national park in SATOUMI, we learn that the rivers that flow out of the rich forests also enrich the sea. The programme is designed to help people think about what they can do proactively in the future to pass on the baton in a beautiful form to the next generation as they become adults.
