View flyer Purpose The Chugoku-Shikoku Regional Environmental Office of the Ministry of the Environment established the “Climate Change Adaptation China-Shikoku Regional Council” in FY2018, and is conducting necessary discussions regarding climate change adaptation through wide-area cooperation in the Chugoku-Shikoku region. This fiscal year, we will highlight the results of the “Climate Change Adaptation Wide-area Action Plan Formulation Project” and the “FY2020 Climate Change Adaptation Regional Development Promotion Project in the Chugoku-Shikoku Region,” which were implemented from FY2020 to FY2024. Based on this, as part of the Ministry of the Environment’s “FY2020 Climate Change Adaptation Regional Development Promotion Project Chugoku-Shikoku Regional Operations,” we are conducting surveys and studies on regional adaptation issues. As part of this effort, we will try to collect information on fish and other species around the
Chugoku-Shikoku region with the cooperation of everyone. In this trial, we will use smartphones* to collect information on warm-sea fish from anglers, fishermen, fisheries engineers, divers, etc., and demonstrate a sharing system including open data. I will connect it to. Through these efforts, we plan to utilize the funds for actions to adapt to climate change. *We plan to utilize the citizen participatory photo collection app “Repot” that runs on a web browser and was used on a trial basis in the Chugoku-Shikoku region operations of the FY2020 Climate Change Adaptation Regional Development Promotion Project.
