Forests have several functions such as head water\u00a0recharge, CO<sub>2<\/sub> absorption, and flood disaster prevention. However,\u00a0forests themselves also can be damaged under a huge\u00a0natural disaster.

The extent of the collapse was large, and it ranged from 30 m in width to 200 m in length, but there was no influence on the lower private houses, fortunately. So I was relieved. &#8221; After Mr. Kai, Mr. Noto of the Aso Promotion Bureau in Kumamoto Prefecture and Mr. Sato of the Mayor\u00a0in Aso City have also the greetings.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_261\" style=\"width: 264px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190369RR.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-261\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-261\" src=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190369RR-254x300.jpg\" alt=\"\u7532\u6590\u7406\u4e8b\u9577\" width=\"254\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190369RR-254x300.jpg 254w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190369RR-768x908.jpg 768w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190369RR.jpg 837w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 254px) 100vw, 254px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-261\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chief Director Kai<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_247\" style=\"width: 276px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190380R.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-247\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-247\" src=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190380R-266x300.jpg\" alt=\"\u718a\u672c\u770c\u963f\u8607\u632f\u8208\u5c40\u80fd\u767b\u5c40\u9577\" width=\"266\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190380R-266x300.jpg 266w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190380R-908x1024.jpg 908w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190380R-768x866.jpg 768w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190380R.jpg 951w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 266px) 100vw, 266px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-247\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kumamoto Prefecture Aso Promotion Bureau Dirctor Noto<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_248\" style=\"width: 249px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190383R.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-248\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-248\" src=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190383R-239x300.jpg\" alt=\"\u963f\u8607\u5e02\u4f50\u85e4\u5e02\u9577\" width=\"239\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190383R-239x300.jpg 239w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190383R-816x1024.jpg 816w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190383R-768x964.jpg 768w, http:\/\/mizutomidori.jp\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/P1190383R.jpg 855w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 239px) 100vw, 239px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-248\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mayor Sato Aso City<\/p><\/div>\n<p>At the briefing to the staff prior to planting trees, Mr. Yoshizu Executive Director of the foundation gave thanks and encouragement greetings.
