The wide spreading activity of regional sustainable education program

铫子半岛的地质和地理特征为该地区带来了荣誉，成为日本最好的春白菜产区，也是该国最重要的渔业基地之一，并吸引了许多风力涡轮机，这被认为是领先的可再生能源。铫子地质公园项目将使人们不仅了解铫子半岛的地质形成过程，而且了解这一土地利用过程对环境的影响。这将使人们相信当地环境的重要性，并促使他们在未来采取具体行动保护当地环境。我们将当地环境划分为三个阶段--过去的形成过程、现在的利用过程和未来的保护过程--的概念定义为“当地生命周期思维”。通过利用这一概念，我们正在该区域的小学、初中和高中提供可持续发展教育。由于这些活动，“铫子地质公园”于2012年9月24日诞生，并为保护当地环境做出了贡献。

The geological and geographical characteristics of Choshi peninsula have brought honor to the region as Japan's best spring-cabbage-producing area as well as one of the most important fishery bases in the country, and have attracted many of wind turbines, which are considered as leading renewable energy. Choshi geopark project will provide people with understanding of not only the geological formation process of Choshi peninsula but also of the environmental impacts resulting from this land utilization process. That will convince the people of importance of the local environment and prompt their concrete activities toward conservation of the local environment in the future. We define the concept that divides the local environment into three stages - the passed formation process, the present utilization process and the future conservation process - as the “local life cycle thinking”. By utilizing this concept, we are providing education for sustainable development, or ESD, at elementary, junior-high and high schools in the region. Due to these activities, “Choshi geopark” was born at 24, Sep. 2012, and was contributed the conservation of local environmental
