This book is a work that focuses on the forest environmental tax.
Forest resources have played a major role in preventing global
warming by absorbing carbon dioxide and supplying oxygen. However,
global economic growth has adversely affected the global
environment and has exacerbated global warming due to excessive
consumption of forest resources. The functions or "services" of
forests are diverse, but the interest of the citizenry in forest
cultivation is scarce since forests are public goods. Concurrently,
Japanese forestry, which has played an important role in forest
conservation, is steadily declining, and it is no longer possible
for private forest operators to maintain the forest environment.
Therefore, in order to realize sustainable economic growth, it is
necessary to formulate policies for the conservation of appropriate
forest environments. Forest conservation is an especially important
policy issue for Japan, where two-thirds of the country is
forested. In Japan, a forest environmental tax is being introduced
as a forest conservation policy. As of 2021, the forest
environmental tax has already been introduced in about two-thirds
of the prefectures and soon will be introduced as a national tax.
In this book, the significance and issues of the forest
environmental tax will be sorted out, and the status of the
introduction of the forest environmental tax in Japan will be
compared with that of other countries. In addition, there is
additional material regarding the water source conservation fund in
Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, a system similar to the forest
environmental tax.
