Donations via hometown tax are Here From When a large-scale disaster causes a power outage, water outage, or sewage pipe breakage, toilets become unusable and the issue of life and dignity becomes more serious. There is an urgent need to take measures to ensure that people can spend their time in safe evacuation centers with peace of mind, and to resolve the toilet problem that places a physical and mental burden on many people. Midori City supports the “Disaster Dispatch Toilet Network Project,” an initiative that aims to resolve the toilet problem that worsens during disasters by helping each other, and will introduce the “Toilet that Makes Everyone Healthy” disaster toilet truck. The aim of this project is for each local government across the country to own a mobile toilet, so that in the event of major damage caused by a disaster, they can send toilets to each other to provide support. So far, 23 local governments across the country have joined, and we are also active in areas affected by the Noto Peninsula Earthquake that occurred on January 1, 2020.

In recent years, as disasters have become more severe and more frequent in various parts of Japan, Midori City has made the “Midori 5 Zero Declaration” in order to tackle the rapid climate changes and environmental problems caused by global warming. In order to build the city, we are working on disaster prevention measures with the aim of reducing the number of deaths from natural disasters to zero. In the Noto Peninsula Earthquake that occurred on January 1, 2020, three city employees were dispatched to Kahoku City in Ishikawa Prefecture as members of the Gunma Prefecture Disaster Response Support Team to assist in disaster response and to assess damage to residential buildings. We conducted an investigation and accepted applications for disaster victim certificates. In areas affected by the Noto Peninsula Earthquake, securing water due to lack of toilets and water outages has been cited as an issue, and 22 toilet cars owned by member local governments from the Disaster Dispatch Toilet Network were dispatched to the affected areas to provide clean toilets. Continuous support was provided to secure the environment. In order to prevent health damage and deterioration of the sanitary environment during evacuation, toilet preparation in the event of a disaster should be a priority. Our city has also taken measures such as stockpiling portable toilets at evacuation centers, but in response to the Noto Peninsula Earthquake, we have decided to introduce toilet trucks to further strengthen our system. After the introduction, we will participate in the Disaster Dispatch Toilet Network, and by participating in the system where member local governments from all over the country rush to help each other, we will not only be able to dispatch toilet trucks from our city to disaster-stricken areas, but also be able to send toilet trucks from all over the country when our city is affected by a disaster. We will be able to send you from all over the world. We kindly ask for your support and support for this project.

https://fields.canpan.info/organization/detail/1615952833 This is a private project that was launched in 2011, immediately after the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, when co-representatives Junya Ishikawa and Naoyuki Sato proposed to high-ranking government officials that public-private information cooperation should be used to support the disaster relief efforts. Having completed our role in Tohoku for the time being, we have shifted our focus to preparing for the next major disaster and providing effective support and matching in the event of a disaster. As of 2024, in order to reduce the number of disaster deaths and disaster-related deaths to zero in this country, the disaster relief toilet network project “Toilet that makes everyone feel better”, the disaster relief personnel network “WAA ReSCue”, “Welfare evacuation center that makes everyone better”, “ We are currently promoting the Zero Disaster-Related Deaths Summit. Currently, there is an overwhelming shortage of toilets in Japan during disasters (earthquakes, floods, coronavirus clusters, etc.). In evacuation centers where many people gather, it is said that one clean, safe and well-lit toilet is required for every 50 people. Toilets are an essential lifeline, not only because of bad odors, but also because they can cause infections. The number of evacuees during disasters was 400,000 in the Great East Japan Earthquake and 180,000 in the Kumamoto Earthquake. It is said that an earthquake directly hitting the Tokyo metropolitan area would cause 7 million people to die, and a Nankai Trough earthquake would cause 9.5 million people to die. If each of the 1,741 municipalities across the country were to deploy one toilet trailer at a time, and if people from all over the country could quickly gather in disaster-stricken areas, the problem of toilet shortages during disasters could be greatly resolved. It will be a great addition to regular events such as fireworks displays and sports days. A toilet trailer in your town. Let’s create a network of mutual support in order to make Japan, a disaster-prone country, more resilient. ＞＞Toilet HP that will make everyone feel better http://corp.tasukeaijapan.jp/toilet/
