80 people are missing after a mudslide hit Japan. Is it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?

Debris flow in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan is a natural disaster, but it is also a man-made disaster.

Why do you say that? It is because the cause of debris flow is usually that heavy rain hits the soil on the hillside, leading to landslides. It has been raining continuously in Japan during this period, and the precipitation so far has exceeded the total amount in July last year, which is of course a major cause of mudslides. But in Shizuoka Prefecture, this is the first time a mudslide has occurred. In addition to the increase in rainfall, another cause of debris flow is man-made.

It is reported that half of the sand loss area comes from Houshan? Fill the soil? . According to the preliminary investigation, the source of debris flow is the massive deposit in the back mountain? Fill the soil? This 50,000 cubic meters of fill reveals? Abortion? Development plan. ?

20 1 1, this piece at that time? Fill the soil? The land is being prepared for development, but in the early stage of construction, the project was taken over by another enterprise. The enterprise used the land for afforestation and environmental greening, but left the fill in place. The local government did not take measures to urge enterprises to deal with this fill. Therefore, the cleaning of this fill has been put on hold until now, and the potential safety hazard of this fill itself has been ignored. It was not until a mudslide occurred in July that people realized that the occurrence of this mudslide was not entirely natural, but related to this development plan.

At present, the official of Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan has not made a specific statement, only that the specific situation is still under investigation. It is hoped that the results of the investigation will be announced as soon as possible, and the enterprises and government agencies involved will be given due punishment and punishment. In addition, the mudslide caused 80 people missing, and the seriousness of the matter is extraordinary. The search and rescue work is still difficult. I hope that the people affected by the disaster can get help as soon as possible, and the upcoming Tokyo Olympic Games can go smoothly.
