| Research Abstract |
Environmental problems are commonly understood as environmental pollution or the increased ecological footprint caused by industrial mass production, regional disparity and the like. However, there also exist somewhat different types of environmental problems such as environmental constraints on everyday life, caused by de-population, an aging society and poor traffic conditions among others. In disadvantaged areas such as remote islands, both types of environmental problems tend to occur simultaneously and are inextricably interwoven. I studied these matters, referring to research date on Teshima jiken- the illegal dumping of toxic industrial waste on Teshima, Kagawa Prefecture.
