[G01-05] The Necessity of Expanding Disaster Literacy toward the Era of "Society 5.0" "SDGs"
Keywords:Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake Disaster, Great East Japan Earthquake Disaster, soft disaster prevention, hazard map, Fukushima nuclear power plant, probability
The junior high school textbook with the highest adoption rate in Japan (Tokyo-shoseki Edition), contained the geological cross-section of Rokko Ikoma since 1981, and it was introduced as a typical example of earthquake and crustal movement. In 1970's, Kobe City asked the group of researchers of Osaka City University for active fault investigation, and the result covered 1 side of the local paper as "Kobe May Hit by Earthquake". In 1990's, in the decision of the regional disaster prevention plan, the seismic intensity of 5 which is unnecessary in the earthquake resistant fire cistern was chosen through the discussion on which seismic intensity of 6 or seismic intensity of 5 is assumed. The Han-Shin Awaji Earthquake disaster is a typical example of causing the earthquake disaster without being utilized even if there is a knowledge with high probability.
The Ishinomaki plain, Sendai plain and the coastal area of Fukushima Prefecture was left unprotected, because it was not taken in the countermeasure, though there was an experience of the giant history tsunami of Jogan and Keicho.The Manual for the Creation of Tsunami Storm Hazard Maps by the Cabinet Office (2004) established the principle of indicating a wide inundation area for the purpose of soft disaster prevention, which protects people's lives by evacuation, even if the hardware could not prevent tsunami attacks. However, it did not even specify the possibility of inundation damage such as making the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant an inundation area. It is thought that behind this was political pressure from the electric power companies (The details are summarized in the serial of 'Science' "and the tsunami that was buried" by Kunihiko Shimazaki who experienced a member of the Earthquake Research Committee of the Headquarters for Earthquake Research Promotion, a chairman of the Long-term Evaluation Subcommittee of the Headquarters, and an acting chairman of the Nuclear Regulation Authority.).
The SDGs target of "leave no one behind" is set, and in the "Society 5.0" for the realization, it can be said that the innovation is not only the industrial technology development but also the solution of the public problem by the cooperation of civil society. I would like to establish a social framework that does not bring about "unexpected" such as the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake and the Great East Japan Earthquake as one of the pillars of literacy for disaster prevention education. To achieve this goal, the government will examine the need for public education and democracy.
