Yes, safe if eaten. 食べるのは安全 Any environmental adverse side effects? 環境は？ Any abrupt change in productivity of crop? 突然変異は？ Yield may be go down. 生産量は下がる Even if Agrichemicals are safe for human, but is it safe for insects to help pollination? ミツバチのような受粉支援の昆虫は？ 53

Adaptation with Skilled Forecast 予測力と適応力 n n n Average Rain Fall = Slight Increase Temperature will go up to some extent Agricultural Suitability of certain place will be changed, but the other place will become good land for agriculture. CO 2 concentration increase =Some fertilizing 二酸化炭素の施肥効果 effect Area of farming land is about half of land 使用可能な農地 suitable for agriculture. 候補の半分を使用中 If enough farmers in the new agricultural 農民の数！ land, global supply of food will be enough. 多分大丈夫 54

It is a good strategy to have long perspectives of the global change as possible as we can, if we try to prepare for unexpected changes of local situation. 想定外の変化に対して準備をしておくこと 長期的な地球レベルの変化を予測することが重要 55

Theoretical Goal n n 理論上の解決法 “To realize Steady State of the Earth in 2100. ” 定常状態を実現する Three Conditions そのための三条件 n n n 1: Renewable Resources : Use only the amount naturally renewed. 再生可能資源：再生の範囲内 2: Non Renewable Resources : Use No Energy resources. Recycle all Metals & Minerals perfectly using Renewable Energy. 地下資源を使うな 完全リサイクル 3: Environmental Pollutant : Release only the amount within the capacity of the Earth. 汚染物：地球の処理能力以内 56

More Detailed Description by Herman Daily in 1971 ハーマン・デイリーの原則 n n 1. Renewable Resources: Do not use renewable resources at higher speeds than the speed of regeneration. 再生速度以内で利用 Good for : Fishery, Forestry, etc. 漁業、林業など 3. Wastes: Discard wastes Only at a speed less than the speed of reduction by the capacity of the Earth. 地球の処理能力以内で廃棄 Including “Nuclear Spent Fuel” 使用済み核燃料も 57

Continued n 枯渇性資源は、再生可能資源に変換せよ 2. Non-Renewable Resources: Do not use non-renewable resources at higher velocities than the velocity of conversion of non-renewable resources into renewable resources. n = We have to use a part of non-renewable resources such as oil to construct devices or equipment for renewable energy such as wind and photo voltaic, which can produce more energy than non-renewable energy consumed. 例：石油を使うなら、その一部で自然エネルギー機器を作り 石油より多くの再生可能エネルギーを生み出せ 58

Practical Goal n 現実的な分かりやすいゴール “ Use only the Energy from renewable resources in 2100” 再生可能エネルギーだけ！ の２１００年 n n n This will be 90% achievement to the これで 90%目標達成 theoretical goal. It means the life of natural resources will be extended about 10 times. 資源の寿命が１０倍伸びる It can be said, “Human Life Reach A New Stage”. 人類は新しいステージに到達したと言える 59

Conclusions n No Possibility of Extinction of Homo-sapience in spite of Limitation of the Earth. 地球の限界のために人類が絶滅することは無さそう n Local Sustainability will be affected by global environmental changes including climate change, limitation of some resources and loss of biological diversities. 地域の持続可能性はグローバルな持続可能性の影 響を受ける。気候変動、資源の有限性、そして、生物 多様性の喪失など n Crisis can be averted by prediction and management of environmental risks. 適切な予測と環境リスクの管理で危機は回避できる n Possible solutions for global environmental issues must be discussed and proposed. 何が起きるか不確実！ グローバルな環境問題の解決法を提案することが必須 63
