Naturedyne Naturedyne Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, President Keiichi Nakajima, hereafter: ND) is using its own crop cultivation technology, SoBiC (Solar Pneumatic Bio Cycle System), to make the food crisis worse. We will develop concrete measures to avoid the crisis of war and to build a sustainable society. Analyzing the Causes of the " Negative Spiral " from the Food Crisis to War and Proposing Solutions The root cause of the current turmoil in the world situation is, needless to say, the rapid increase in the population of the earth's natural resources. .. Currently, the population is 7.3 billion, and it will continue to grow at a rate of over 8 billion in 10 years and over 9 billion in 20 years. Among the natural resources stored on the earth, the amount that humans consume and the amount that is regenerated by the resilience of nature becomes unbalanced, resulting in an imbalance in sustainability and the rapid synergistic destruction of the environment. will go forward. According to physical calculations by scientists, if people in developed countries continue to consume resources while maintaining their lifestyles, the population is limited to 3 billion to maintain a sustainable balance. It has been. As the population grows, the scale of the economy expands, industrial development progresses in response, and industrial technological innovation accelerates the consumption of natural resources synergistically. Today, 7.3 billion people have been consuming resources far beyond their original capacity for natural regeneration for decades, and as a result, they have already caused various serious environmental problems. It can be said that we have reached the "limit of growth" not only because we are out of balance now, but also because the resources themselves have begun to be depleted and have exceeded the quantitative limit . In other words, it can be said that it is already close to terminal illness. Water scarcity is the number one cause of terminal illness. Water scarcity is directly linked to food shortages, which is the most deadly problem in all ecological environments. This problem has become more prominent, creating a "fatal negative spiral." Food shortages are directly linked to life-threatening. As an instinct of life, when food is scarce, the sense of crisis alone leads to fierce competition, and finally a life-and-death battle. It is self-evident that this will be a war if it is done at the national level. Once the battle begins, the population will be reduced until the supply and demand of food is balanced. Many scientists have issued warnings about these things for quite some time, but they have all been ignored. However, the background that has been ignored is not simply the selfish values that come from human greed. Population growth is the result of the development of a peaceful and good society, and the recommendations that hinder it are also social evils. Even with China's one-child policy, forced population control can distort the social structure. Moreover, since the society itself cannot be established by advocating communism in a capitalist economic society and denying economic growth, such a proposal cannot be accepted by society, and the current situation is unavoidable. It can be said that this is the result of doing as much as possible. However, for the survival of society, we absolutely must stop this negative spiral. In order to stop this " negative spiral " , it is necessary to understand the root cause and the mechanism of chaining, and then proceed with simple and effective countermeasures at once . Superficial measures are just a deception. In the meantime, things get worse and worse. With a complicated mechanism, it cannot be deployed at once, causing new problems. The root cause of the negative spiral is that it originates from an industrial structure that depends on the consumption of natural resources , and if this can be solved, the negative spiral can be stopped. For that purpose, it is necessary to change the foundation of the industrial structure to a structure that does not depend on oil or electric energy, does not lose convenience, does not burden the environment, and can dramatically save water resources. If this can be done in the agricultural production industry, it will be a drastic solution because it will enable industrial development while increasing economic growth. Agriculture is the largest basic industry that supports human society, and 70% of human intake is agricultural water. If we can save 70% of the current agricultural water consumption without depending on natural resources, it will be possible to maintain a sustainable social structure even if the population increases to 10 billion . The problem is, is there an unconventional agricultural production system technology that does not use electricity, saves 70% of agricultural water, does not impair efficiency and convenience, and makes it easy to produce crops? However, the SoBiC system can achieve this. SoBiC is a system that can be easily cultivated and produced by anyone, anywhere by using the solar heat of the sun and operating automatically without using electricity or machinery, saving 70 to 90% of water compared to the past. Crop production, that is, food production, is an industry in which demand increases as the population increases, so if this can dramatically reduce dependence on natural resources , economic growth can be expected reasonably. In other words, it can contribute to economic growth and environmental improvement without imposing any obstacles on the fundamental social structure and the state of the capitalist economy, so it not only stops the negative spiral but also proposes a virtuous cycle that enriches society. I can do it. However, there are some issues. The efficiency and usefulness of SoBiC cultivation is not unreasonable from the viewpoint of natural science, and its good growth has been proved in various experiments, but it does not depend on conventional agricultural technology or high-tech technology. Therefore, it has the character of completely changing the values of related technologies up to now. Since there are some factors that conflict with the existing industry, it is difficult to immediately gain the understanding of related industries and spread them in cooperation. To deal with this, we will take advantage of SoBiC itself, which has almost no technical or cost issues, and will build up achievements from areas that are absolutely necessary overseas, such as selling cultivation kits to ordinary households and Africa. That is the pillar of our development strategy. Established a joint venture company in Kenya Started expansion in the African continent ND acquired SoBiC technology through the mediation of AIESEC Japan, the Japanese branch of AIESEC, the world's largest student organization operating in 126 countries and regions. We accepted Mr. Mable Nelson from Kenya as an internship student for the purpose of doing an internship for about two months, mastered the technology, and received his strong intention to spread SoBiC throughout Africa. , Decided to launch Naturedyne Africa as a joint venture in Kenya Nairobi. In Africa, water shortages and drought damage are becoming more serious year by year, and many areas are starving to death due to food shortages. SoBiC does not require power supply equipment, can be easily installed anywhere with a small amount of water, and does not require the acquisition of advanced system technology or cultivation technology, so anyone can easily handle it, so it is easy to spread and it is large. It does not require a large investment even when introducing a scale, the labor load can be reduced, and food can be produced efficiently, which helps to support self-reliance and independence. You can expect a big improvement effect in. Responding to the Sustainable Development Goals SDGs set by the United Nations As ND, at the same time as deploying in Kenya, in cooperation with Isek Japan, the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals SDGs (Sustainable) Efforts based on the 17 goals for changing the world (poverty eradication, zero hunger, etc.) set in the Development Goal) will be embodied from various angles, effective improvement approaches will be considered, and the forces will be strong. We will work toward the creation of a sustainable society while trying to cooperate and collaborate with various related organizations and institutions. Please refer to the description of specific effective initiatives for the United Nations. Employees of Nature Dine Co., Ltd. and members of the United Nations Japan Inc. Understanding the current crisis and proposing collaborative activities this month On the 3rd, the shocking news that North Korea succeeded in the development experiment of the hydrogen bomb ran around. It is said that the power of the hydrogen bomb will be several tens of times that of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Even if this does not appear on the missile, if it explodes somewhere, it is possible that World War III will begin at that point, involving the surrounding countries, or that it will develop into the worst nuclear war that will lead to the destruction of humankind. It means that the current world situation is not limited to North Korea, but indiscriminate terrorism by Islamic countries is occurring frequently all over the world, and conflicts are intensifying in many countries, and the destination is There are a lot of refugees who do not have it. The world economy is whispering the "limit of growth", and even in developed countries, the poverty rate is rising rapidly, and now we cannot afford to accept refugees and immigrants, and now most of the world's population Is in a situation where he is accumulating a great deal of stress. To repel this, abnormal weather is occurring all over the world due to climate change due to warming, etc., and while heavy rains and floods have caused enormous damage in urban areas, water storage areas such as dams and rural areas It doesn't rain at all, desertification is widespread, and serious drought damage is widespread. These man-made disasters are accelerating food shortages, aggravating social unrest, accumulating further stress, and ending in a "negative spiral" that goes beyond the limits and develops into conflict. The current situation is that we have fallen into. With a population increase of only one billion in 10 years, this stress will accelerate at once. Unless this "negative spiral" is stopped as soon as possible, Kikake will surely have a big war in the near future (within 10 to 20 years) , or some kind of incident will exert a large amount of population control power . It seems. ND will utilize SoBiC to seek cooperation with organizations and companies that widely support activities to stop this negative spiral. We have released a video explaining SoBiC on YouTube.
