Expansion of a new industrial base should be allowed only when the living environment of its vicinity is to be better re-created and perennially guaranteed. In more specific terms, formation of Environmental Protection Forest is recommended. Environmental Protection Forest is diverse and stable in nature, and biologically represents the integral of a given region's indigenous natural environment, upon which human life is profoundly dependent. Since the climate of the Japanese Archipelago is temperate and rainy, more than 95% of the land was covered with woods and forests. The woods and forests which mainly occupied the southern half of the country were evergreen broad-leaved forests dominated by Castanopsis, Persea (Machilus), evergreen Querrus etc. In the northern half, they were summergreen broad-leaved forcsts dominated by Fagus and Quercus (deciduous species). Man migrated to the Archipelago approximately 2000 years ago, and started to slowly cultivate land and develop industries. And now, the new civilization created by the population increase and rapid urbanization has inevitably resulted in nature destruction. such as deterioration and demolish-ment of vegetation. Although continuously destroying nature on one hand, the Japanese have created, cherished and preserved nature in certain locations, after many trials and errors over a long period of time. This is Native Forest as symbolized by the "Chinju-no-mori(Heimatwäder)" forest in and around towns and villages. "Chinju-no-mori" has been under the protection of communities' residents. In Japan, our recommendation has been widely accepted. Natural environment survey (vegetational suvey) is now a prerequiste to the construction of hydraulic, thermal, atomic and geothermal power plants, factories, industrial sites and residential complex. Also, time is ripe for making it a premise to disgnose current conditions of the greens in the vicinity concerned and compile an actual vegetation map, a base map for nature restoraction, and a potential natural vegetation map i. e. a quantitative illustration of the habitat. Realistic planning and implementation of nature preservation, restoraction and creation as represented by the Environmental Protection Forest, are neccessary. These diagnosis and proposals from the point of view of ecology and phytosociology are being adopted and utilized in the Japanese environmental policies today. Gradually, Environmental Protection Forest, a creative ecological response to an emerging new era, is taking root in various energy and industrial bases thoughout the country.
