Save the world with Dr. Takashima's fermentation

Dr. Yasuhide Takashima is a person who is serious about environmental issues. As a Ph.D. in Environmental Microbiology, he conducts research and development on the decomposition and disappearance of various persistent and radioactive substances. He shares his achievements and activities on his homepage and YouTube channel. He is also contributing to environmental conservation, such as the greening campaign of Mt. Fuji and the development of bio-toilets.

Is real technology threatened by resistance forces?

However, he was arrested in 2010 on suspicion of illegal dumping of sludge. There are difficulties in developing real technology. No information was found that the innocence was confirmed in subsequent trials. His commitment to environmental issues should be appreciated, though.

Dr. Yasuhide Takashima

Dr. Yasuhide Takashima is the representative director of Takashima Development Engineering Research Institute Co., Ltd. (founded in April 1987)
Academic Theme: “Decomposition and disappearance of various substances such as radioactive substances, heavy metals, and harmful substances by the presence and expression of degrading bacteria and degrading enzymes for all substances such as radioactive substances, heavy metals, and harmful substances using complex fermentation based on complex microbial dynamic system analysis”

Bio-toilet

Dr. Takashima has developed a permanent bio-toilet called “Organic View”. This bio-toilet uses complex fermentation technology to decompose and eliminate excrement and food waste. It also does not require water or electricity and does not produce any bad odors. In addition, the treated water can be used as reclaimed water for agriculture and river purification. This bio-toilet is an innovative system that is environmentally friendly and can be used in times of disaster or in places with poor infrastructure, such as in mountainous areas. As a result of this technological development, Dr. Takashima received the Fire and Disaster Management Agency Commissioner's Award for Excellence in 2008.

Midsummer Tokyo shrine

A shrine where people gather even on a midsummer day

On Saturday, June 25, in central Tokyo, the maximum temperature was over 40 degrees Celsius. Even so, worshipers were scattered around at Tokyo Daijingu, a shrine famous for its marriage. There were about 10 chairs with straw cushions on wooden logs in the precincts, and there was a shade on the ceiling. Furthermore, fog was sprayed from above. So people enjoyed the refreshing space. The end of June was the turnaround of the year, and there was also a set of Chinowa-kuguri to remove the evil.

For the remaining six months, I once again swore to myself that I should be honest with myself.

Fog is sprayed from above
at the outdoor resting corner of Tokyo Daijingu,
and it is refreshing even in the summer.

What the privatization of water has brought about

Japan's water in crisis

Japan has many mountains and rivers, so it has been blessed with water. Japan, where tap water is used as drinking water, is rare in the world. It guarantees a minimum of abundance. But the water in Japan is at stake. In the first place, private operation of the water supply business begins with the enactment of the revised Water Supply Law in December 2018. The water supply that had been operated by local governments until then is being privatized. Privatized water services cost more than people's lives.

Japan has abundant forests and rivers,
and has developed technology
while valuing the environment.

Water companies will not repair after an earthquake

The Great East Japan Earthquake occurred around 14:46 on March 11, 2011. One week has passed since the earthquake, and the water outage managed by the local government in Miyagi Prefecture has been resolved. However, water outages have continued for a long time in the housing complex in Sendai City, where private businesses manage water supply. Awareness of water is fundamentally different between local governments that protect residents and companies that emphasize profitability. I hope that the current situation of water privatization will change.

Industrial water without environmental measures

In February 2022, it was announced that Taiwanese semiconductor giant TSMC would "advance" in Kumamoto Prefecture. 

Kumamoto has abundant groundwater, and that groundwater is the basis of cultivation. It seems that the Japanese government has decided to provide TSMC with this precious groundwater free of charge. There are semiconductor manufacturers in Japan as well, but industrial wastewater generated during the production process takes environmental measures. Therefore, Japanese products are costly. If TSMC discharges polluted water without environmental measures, Kumamoto's agricultural products are hopeless.

Japan's clean and abundant groundwater is
the basis of safe vegetables and crops.
Such a relationship with nature itself is ecological.

Summary

Water is a treasure nurtured by nature. Water is an important ecological element such as forests, microorganisms and small animals. To pollute the earth and water is to despise the human race itself. It cannot be converted into money. Be sensitive to things around you that aren't other people's affairs. And let's do what we can.
