일본의 습지보전 및 관리법제

The policy on preserving wetlands in Japan is suggested systematically and concretely in the Basic Environment Plan and the three National Biodiversity Strategies of Japan. Among them, the Second National Biodiversity Strategy of Japan is kept an eye on because it has many important policies on preserving wetlands. Those policies are such items as selecting the wetlands worth being preserved, preserving wetlands in the nation-wide view and with international linkage and cooperation and the arrangement of data concerned with wetlands. But it matters whether those laws and institutions, etc. are prepared to implement those desirable policies. In Japan, they do not have the law only for preserving wetlands, which dose not meet the need to preserve wetlands. Now it is necessary to make the exclusive law to implement the Basic Environment Plan and the three National Biodiversity Strategies of Japan, especially the Second Strategy.
