The forest located along the coast that once served as protection from disasters was swept away in the tsunami after the Great East Japan Earthquake, leading to unprecedented damages. As an advocate of the Minna no Morizukuri: Miyagi Coastal Forest Restoration Project, we are working to restore protective coast forests which defend the local community from disasters and seek to return the coast to a verdant state.
