Celebration Earth: Making The Jump From A Culture Of War To A Culture Of Peace
CROW INTERVIEWS THE WALKING TREEMAN AT MOUNT MINAMIYAMI SAVE THE FORESTS EVENT
The forest of Mount Minamiyama are being destroyed by developers and the local government. These forests lie within ten mile sof downtown Tokyo and are one of the last natural green spaces in the crowded city vicinity. The people of Minamiyama don't want their green space to be destroyed, people wonder why more homes are necessary when Japans population is decreasing?
80,000 and more trees will be lost, plus the habitat for 80 types of longhorn beatle and the endagered Tokyo Salamander will dissapear. The Racoons that live there will also be lost. To help save the forests on the Mountain, the Walking Treeman appeared on the day 120 people from all over Tokyo came to the forest, to celebrate it's great beauty and to inspire people to action. Crow, took the opportunity to chat with him.
