This year's eco-s Mountain Clean Caravan will be held at Sugadairakogen Snow Resort, which was the first long eco-s activity to be held!
On the day of the event, many people from the locals to the distant people visited us to clean the mountains.

Riders from Nagano also participated in this eco-s.
Shin Miyajima, who has appeared in the world's highest peak video "THE FOURTH PHASE" and is active worldwide.
And Jiro Nakayama, where Sugadaira Kogen directs green.lab locally.
In addition, AIR MIX's famous MC Rio Tahara from Ueda City and Yone film, the director of Live Naturally, are also available.

Continuing from last year, we invited SSBA (All Japan Student Snowboard Association) students to participate.
I picked up a lot of garbage.

The Sugadaira Highlands, which are cool even in the summer, were able to work comfortably without being too hot even in fine weather.

In addition, after picking up the trash this time, we will hold a mountain dash game with the products of 241, green.lab, and VOLCOM who supported us.
I ran up the mountain that I had cleaned up a while ago and got excited.
At the VOLCOM booth, we also held a mini-game to throw in skate wheels, which was also exciting for all children and adults.

It would be great if we could enjoy snowboarding again in the snow in the winter in the field we cleaned in the summer.

Thank you to everyone who participated for the first time this time and those who rushed every time to the mountain clean in the hot weather!
I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We would like to continue to carry out eco-s mountain clean caravan with everyone.
Let's clean the mountains together next year!


What is eco-s?

"What is eco-s?"
Feeling that the earth and humans are connected in an unconscious part, thank the snowy earth, and act from familiar things.

e echo (return like an echo / echo)
c connection (Everything that is connected by the relationship between the earth and people / connection / relationship)
o occurrence (what happens by chance or what is born / by chance / birth)
s synchronicity (starts at the same time in completely different places / synchronicity)

Humans are not living alone.
You may not be aware of it in your daily life, but you should always be connected to someone else.And in the same way, we are connected to all the animals, plants and nature in the world through the existence of "Mother Earth".Sometimes in the form of a food chain, sometimes in the form of symbiosis, and sometimes in the form of emotional connections of healing and emotion ... in various circles, I, and everything. It exists.

In the dizzying daily life of modern society, it often happens that we inadvertently forget that connection.At such times, by spending a wealth of time playing in the mountains and the sea and enjoying dialogue with nature and animals, we can reconfirm the size of the existence of our friends who are connected through the earth.

"MISSION"
Through the vibration of "eco-s", in the near future, more than 2000 million people around the world who will play in the snowy mountains will have white snow in their favorite natural fields as well as in their work and life. We believe that if we can think about the global environment and act across national borders, we will surely leave a good environment for future generations.

"Behavioral theme"
GET ON BOARD THINK ENVIRONMENT
"The harmony of people who think and act on their own will about the environment"
* environment is the natural environment that influences people's emotions and perspectives.
* BOARD refers to the sum of discussions, committees, etc. around the table.

What if my favorite snowboarding and skiing white snow fields are gone ...?
If the "white snowing world" that I had taken for granted until now ends in our generation and I can't communicate with my child and then again ...
That's very sad.So what can we do now ...?There are countless numbers.
However, not all of them can be done.
The "eco-s project" that started in 2004 created the entrance that was the first step.
The environment and humans are changing every day.We recognize the current situation and create a place where each person can learn the correct recognition of the environment and the opportunity to acquire the knowledge necessary to think, while each person's feelings and perceptions are to continue our playground. I feel that I can have a very important meaning and role, and I want to take action.
