Midori Ippai Project Activities LINE 270Pine Forest Conservation Activity at Fukui Beach of Itoshima City April 21, 2018 NTT West Fukuoka Group
On April 21, 2018, NTT West Fukuoka Group held the eighth round of the pine forest conservation activity at Fukui Beach (Fukuoka Prefecture, Itoshima City, Nijo-Fukui).
This initiative makes use of the Adopt Program of Itoshima City that was introduced in August 2014. Segments that are assigned by Itoshima City are regarded as "foster (adopted) children" for cleaning and beautification activities to be carried out in the long term and not just temporarily so as preserve and hand down the beautiful landscape of the white sand and green pines to future generations.
The sky was clear on the day of the event, and with support from the "Pine Forest Preservation Society," the body that was commissioned to manage the Itoshima City Adopt Project, a total of 102 participants including employees of Fukuoka Group and their family members took part in the activities.
They spent about an hour working hard to protect the pine trees from weevils by picking branches and pine needles as well as cutting grass.
When the activity first started four years ago, it was impossible to set foot in the forest as it was filled with dead branches and undergrowth. Thanks to the support from the large number of participants in the past and current rounds of cleaning and beautification activities, the pine forest is now maintained in a beautiful state.
NTT West Fukuoka Group will unite its efforts to promote the "Midori Ippai Project" while continuing to deepen its cooperative ties with the local government bodies and other organizations.
