Forests and oceans. At first glance, they may seem unrelated, but they are actually connected through rivers. The rich nutrients contained in the fallen leaves, branches, and soil of forests flow into the ocean through rivers, nurturing the fish and seaweed that live there to create a rich ocean environment.
Many rivers f low through Mitsubishi Materials’ forests. In addition to
delivering nutrients to the ocean, these rivers also provide homes for plants and animals and are important places for protecting water resources. And they are precious playgrounds for us humans.
To protect the richness of rivers and oceans, we regard the forests around rivers as conservation areas that protect water, soil, and ecosystems and keep the felling of trees to an absolute minimum.
Even during the hot summer season, the air around water in forests is cool and refreshing. If you’d like to cool off, why not visit a forest?
