April 25, 2009 TIEC Green Project Meeting

Presenter: Kenichiro Sano

Kenichiro gave us a nice presentation on today's situation with Japanese trees. It appears that unlike the most of the world, Japan has the problem of having too many of them. Moreover, the trees in Japan are strictly protected by laws, that makes very difficult to renew the landscapes.
