There are many instances of human/environment interaction in Japan. In Japan there is mining for steel and different metals, farming for rice, and fishing for fish. Most of Japan is mainly forests, but there is also a lot of agriculture/farming. In Japan's big cities, such as its capital Tokyo, has skyscrapers, industries, shopping areas, arcades, and restaurants. Japan also has many natural resources. For example: forests and metals. Japan's forests cover 65% of the land. Unfortunitly, polution used to be a BIG problem in Japan. Factories were dumping garbage in the seas, but then in 1967 everything changed and Japan had to succumb to new laws. Japan's polution problem has been fixed.
