Midori Ippai Project Activities LINE 229Creating a Beautiful "Satoumi" through Everyone's Efforts! May 28, 2017 NTT West Hokuriku Group
On May 28, 2017 (Sunday), a total of 220 employees, family members and retired employees of NTT West Hokuriku Group took part in "Clean Beach Ishikawa in Kanazawa," a beach protection activity to maintain the beautiful coastline of Ishikawa.
Weather conditions were unfavorable as it started to rain late at night just before the event. Nonetheless, many people gathered next morning at the activity venue. The sky started to clear up slightly when cleaning began at 7a.m., and the weather turned slightly hot.
Hokuriku Group was one of the volunteer leaders for this event, and worked together with people from local companies and citizen volunteers to clean the approximately 1km stretch of coastline at the Senkoji area in Kanazawa City.
Children participants meticulously picked up trash while enjoying ripples that lapped onto the shore every now and then. Meanwhile, adult participants engaged in the heavy lifting work such as loading bulky trash onto the truck.
Much patience is needed to pick up garbage that is washed ashore and buried in the sand, but nevertheless cleaning was completed with participants and their family members talking to and showing concern for one other.
We realized the boundless expanse of the sky and the sea when we took a look at the clean beach at the end of the activity.
NTT West Hokuriku Group will continue to engage in environmental conservation activities to maintain the beauty of our "satoumi."
