Long ago, the coastal areas of Osaka Bay well deserved their reputation as having "beaches with white sands and green pine trees." A wide range of the coastline had a breath-taking beauty and was with full of thick pine trees shadowing the sea and providing fish with food and shelter. A large variety of fish were found there. Afler the Meiji Area, the Bay became a favorite swimming/leisure spot because of its beautiful natural sand-beaches. Today, however, that has changed. The coastal area has been used mostly for industrial purposes. Reclamation has been made and factories have been built on the beaches. The result is environmental destruction. It is especially serious in the enclosed Seto Inland Sea which includes Osaka Bay. To protect these areas and their natural environments, the first legislation was passed in 1973 to conserve the Seto Inland Sea. "The law Concerning Special Measures for Conservation of the Seto Inland Sea" (Seto Inland sea Act 1973) declares that the sea with such a worldwide incomparable beauty and such valuable abundant natural resources should be enjoyed equally by all in the nation and passed on to posterity. Facing with the environmental destruction of the Seto Inland Sea in spite of the Act, we need the more effective legislation to conserve the sea, so we must now consider the amendment of the Seto Inland Sea Act 1973.
