• Drivers of Willingness to Pay for Conservation in Southeast Asia: Nature Relatedness Over Visual Cues Among Japanese People

  ABSTRACT Many long‐distance migratory birds are experiencing global declines, creating an urgent need for conservation actions. Engaging public commitment to their conservation is therefore crucial. However, this task is challenging as the social interest diminishes as the geographic distance to conservation issues increases. One potential solution is to reduce people's psychological distance by providing visual information that illustrates how avian migratory routes connect countries and how conservation organizations implement conservation measures in distant countries. In this study, we conducted a discrete choice experiment with the Japanese public (n = 1081) to estimate their willingness to pay (WTP) for conservation measures aimed at improving and protecting the wintering habitats of migratory birds in Southeast Asia (i.e., establishing wetland/forest nature reserves and implementing environmentally friendly farming/forestry). We tested the impact on WTP of showing respondents avian migratory routes and photographs of activities undertaken by conservation organizations in Southeast Asia. Contrary to predictions, showing the evidence‐based migratory routes connecting Japan and Southeast Asia had limited effects on the WTP of the Japanese public for conservation measures in Southeast Asia. Surprisingly, showing photographs of activities undertaken by conservation organizations in Southeast Asia had slightly negative impacts on WTP. Instead, WTP was strongly linked to subjective connection with nature (nature relatedness), with those exhibiting a stronger nature relatedness showing higher WTP. People showed higher WTP to establish nature reserves in Southeast Asia than to implement environmentally friendly farming/forestry in Southeast Asia, and there were weak negative interactions between implementing nature‐reserve establishment and environmentally friendly farming/forestry simultaneously. These findings suggest that providing visual information alone may not be effective to foster social support for conservation measures in distant countries. Rather, approaches that cultivate the connection with nature—such as environmental education, residential camps, and local nature experiences—are needed, ideally beginning from a young age.

• Combined effects of urban blue–green spaces on the thermal environment: a case study of Kobe, Japan

  Yu Zhang, Yuta Uchiyama, Masayuki Sato

  Abstract Global climate change has led to the deterioration of urban thermal environments, resulting in serious negative impacts on human well-being. As a countermeasure, the public sector has established ad hoc policies, but there are concerns about the financial sustainability of these policies. This study focuses on economic land-use policies for blue–green spaces, using Kobe City as a case study, and evaluates and discusses economic policies such as the Production Green Space Law by quantitatively assessing the combined effects of blue–green spaces. Using Landsat-8 remote-sensing images from the summers of 2014 and 2019, this study retrieved land surface temperatures (LST) by applying the Radiative Transfer Equation method. The results indicated that (1) the area with LST above 32 ℃ in 2019 showed a significant trend of expansion compared with that in 2014. (2) The LST in 2014 was ranked as follows: built-ups, bare land, farmland, water bodies, grassland, and forests. (3) The impact of landscape pattern metrics on LST varied by grid scale, and the correlation was validated at a grid scale of 1200 m. However, the correlation was not significant at a grid scale of 1500 m. (4) The higher the concentration and area of the forests, the better the cooling effect. Regression analysis revealed that water bodies had a mitigating effect on LST. Water bodies and forests exhibited a weak combined warming effect; however, the diminutive regression coefficients suggested that the overall combined effect was not notable. Moreover, the Law on Productive Green Areas is conducive to improving the urban thermal environmental effect, providing the necessary agricultural production support for the city, and improving the well-being of residents.

• Impact of increased subway station density on air quality in the Yangtze River Delta

  Xiaohui Ye, Masayuki Sato

  Abstract This study uses empirical methods to explore the relationship between subway system development and air quality in the Yangtze River Delta. We propose a new variable to measure subway development, ‘subway station density value,’ which can more accurately describe subway development than the traditional ‘line opening’ variable. It eliminates the effects of differences in subway line length, layout, and size of the local subway system. Using this variable, we find that subway development has a significant positive impact on air quality improvement; that is, an increase in the density of subway stations is significantly associated with improved air quality. This finding provides a scientific basis for the relevant authorities to formulate the development and layout of public transport facilities. It strongly responds to previous debates on the relationship between subways and air quality. In addition, we find that urban population size, economic development level, and subway system size play moderating roles in the relationship between subways and air quality. Increasing the availability of subways can significantly improve the air quality in cities with high population sizes and economic development levels. However, as the size of a subway system increases, its effect on air quality improvement may weaken, suggesting that the development of subway systems should not be unthinkingly expanded either. Although our study has valuable findings, we must discuss several limitations further. These include restrictions in the selection of the study population, data availability, and potentially oversimplified criteria for considering the impact of urban differences. Overall, this study not only provides new theoretical and empirical perspectives for understanding and explaining how subway development affects air quality but also indicates the direction for further exploration in future studies.

• An interdisciplinary approach to environmental conservation policy: a case of Satoyama redevelopment in the peri-urban area

  Masayuki Sato, Toshifumi Minamoto, Atushi Ushimaru

  Abstract This study proposes a practice and discussion for an interdisciplinary approach to policies for the conservation of suburban and peri-urban ecosystems. We highlight the need for evidence-based assessment of the current quality of the targeted nature from perspectives of natural science and problem formulation, and that causes should be investigated from the combined perspectives of social science, economic evaluation, and policy design and evaluation, with an awareness of the possibility of consensus building. In this study, based on the ongoing international trend of ecosystem conservation, an economic analysis was conducted to examine the direction of Satoyama development as a case study of urban and peri-urban ecosystem conservation. The result identified the preference and needs of citizens with regard to Satoyama ecosystems and discussed the consistency between policy targets and citizens’ evaluation.

• A Practice in Valuation of Ecosystem Services for Local Policymakers: Inclusion of Local-Specific and Demand-Side Factors

  Takashi Hayashi, Daisuke Kunii, Masayuki Sato

  Although researchers expect the valuation of ecosystems and their services to be used in various decision-making processes, some studies have insisted that the valuation results cannot be fully used in the real world. The so-called “information gap” was highlighted, and some reasons for the gap were raised by researchers. One of them is the lack of local-specific and demand-side information, such as who receives the benefits and to what extent. This study proposes a valuation that includes demand-side information for it to be practically useful for policy decision making, especially for local policymakers. We focus on the headwater conservation service of the forest ecosystem by referring to the case of constructing solar power plants in the Satetsu-gawa river basin in Ichinoseki, Japan. We estimate the size of the area and the number of households affected by deforestation caused by the construction of the plants. Furthermore, the lost value of ecosystem services is assessed in monetary terms to reflect information on the demand side. Based on the results, we present multiple indicators for assessing the impact of constructing the plants and discuss how the valuation can be used by local policymakers as well as how it can close the information gap.

  It has been theoretically shown that a necessary condition for sustainability is ensuring that comprehensive wealth―including natural capital―does not decrease. Because of this, in recent years the Inclusive Wealth Index, which actually measures this wealth, has attracted attention as a sustainability indicator. In this paper, we review the policy, theoretical, and empirical research background, and as one example we examine the issues encountered when incorporating water into natural capital. Intra-generational equity, the effects of population decline, aggregate spatial scale, and shadow price estimates are identified as areas for future research.

• 食品購買時の提示情報量と消費者の選択行動

  SATO MASAYUKI, 新山 陽子

  Recently, with the social requirement, traceability systems come into use for recognition of thehistory or origin of the food product. However, there remain important problems: what and how muchinformation should be supplied to consumers. Some people argue that the information should beoffered as much and detailed as possible. Others suggest that because a deluge of information is notdesirable, we should sort out or summarize the information and then provide to consumers.
  In this paper, for inquiring the desirable quantity of information with traceability systems, weanalyze the consumers' ability of processing information by using discrete choice models. Throughthe experiment by increasing the quantity of information, two interesting results are obtained. First, we identify the point at which the effect of information overload occurs. The result shows thatinformation entropy indexes are lowest at 6 attributes and become higher at more than 6 attributes.
  These imply that information overload effect appears around 6 attributes. Second, "knowledge" and"product involvement" are found to be dep ressant factors of information overload. People who havehigh knowledge or high involvement have relatively low entropy index.
  From these findings, we can argue that to provide too much information to consumers isproblematic because it makes consumers confuse. To avoid this, we should select what is importantinformation for them. It is also important to offer an appropriate education and enlightenment inorder to heighten their knowledge and involvement.

• Conjoint Analysis of Consumer Preferences for Broadband Services in Japan

  Masayuki Sato, Takanori Ida

  This paper applies conjoint analysis to consumer preferences of Japan’s broadband services such as ADSL, CATV Internet, and FTTH. The stated preference method has advantages in analyzing innovative and qualitatively changing services from a long-term point of view. We make two points. First, we find that the actual availability of FTTH has an effect on consumers’ stated preferences: consequently, the WTP for 1 Mbps is about \32 ($0.29) for users with access to FTTH, while it is about \45 ($0.41) for those without access to FTTH. Second, we show that stated preference and revealed preference may vary for a certain population: consequently, the WTP for 1 Mbps is about \32 ($0.29) based on the former, while it is about \20 ($0.18) based on the latter.

  This study investigated the impact of innovation of environmental technology on economic outcomes by using econometric methods. We explored relationship between patent applications and export values with regard to wind and solar energy technology. As are result of gravity model analysis based on OECD 27 countries data, we found that the higher level of innovation lead to the higher export values although the relationships is weaker for solar energy technology.

  This research investigated ecosystem valuation around Mt. Rokko, which is located near Kobe, a major city in Japan. Special attention was paid to how differences in lifestyle and experiences of valuators influence willingness to pay. It was found that certain experiences had a significant effect on valuation of ecosystem services. From psychological analysis, it was also found that psychological measure offered the different results from welfare measure. These findings suggest the importance of considering the diversity of valuators, and it also warns the extinction of experience with nature under on going urbanization for urban ecosystem conservation. This research concludes that measurement approach, recognition process, urbanization and lifestyle change are important in ecosystem service valuation.

  Risk communication, an interactive exchange of information and opinions concerning risks among risk managers, risk assessors, citizens and other interested parties, is considered the most critical element in the risk analysis process. To promote risk communication, we succeeded in: 1) elucidating the characteristics of public risk perception, understanding of information and food choice behavior; 2) developing an interactive risk communication model with experts and citizens, and examining the effect by experimentation, and; 3) drawing up a design of a food communication text. In addition, we developed case studies locally and internationally to establish ethics of food business operators, ethical commitments of consumers to food and agriculture, and profession of food hygiene engineers.

  人間の福祉(Well-being)は、決定要因である生産的基盤と、構成要素である幸福や生活満足度とに分けて考えることができる。これまでは、前者に基づいた持続可能な発展の研究と、後者の幸福度等の研究とが個別に進んでいた。そこで本研究では、両者を結び付ける枠組みについて、決定要因と構成要素とにかかわる制度に注目して検討した。これにより、消費や効用をベースにした持続可能な発展から、幸福度等の主観的福祉まで含めた持続可能な発展に議論を拡張することができる。 本年度は、(1)幸福度等の主観的福祉と持続可能性と、(2)制度と持続可能性、のサブテーマの統合研究に着手した。具体的には下記の通りである。 第一に、昨年度まで進められてきた最適成長モデルに基づく持続可能性研究と、主観的福祉が経済成長に与える影響のインプリケーションを統合し、主観的福祉に基づいた持続可能な発展の概念枠組みを検討した。 第二に、昨年度まで進められてきた公共財としての地球環境の持続可能性に関する分析結果を踏まえ、環境難民など具体的な問題への適用を念頭に、複数国からなる国際社会での制度と持続可能性に関する理論分析枠組みを検討した。 第三に、主観的福祉を反映した資本の一例として習慣形成を取り上げ、その社会的価値(シャドー価格)を用いて従来の持続可能性指標を拡充する枠組みを構築した。 第四に、自然資本のシャドー価格を使って持続可能性指標を計算する際、類似する自然資本のシャドー価格を援用する便益移転などの評価手法を用いることで主観的福祉を反映させる方法について検討した。 第五に、コンピュータ・シミュレーションによって将来の持続可能性指標を算出する際に設定する必要がある消費者の選好パラメータについて、主観的福祉を反映する実験的研究に着手した。具体的には、参照水準が主観的福祉に与える影響、利他主義、主観的リスク・時間選好等である。

  本年度は環境の価値の経済学的定式化とその測定手法の開発にとりくみ、それら環境評価手法に基いた環境政策に関する研究を行った。本年度は研究計画の最終年度にあたるため、これまでの研究蓄積を総括し、本研究課題の成果を論文にまとめ、学術雑誌等に投稿し掲載された。 第一に、離散選択モデルを環境問題とりわけ建築廃棄物問題に応用した研究「建築廃棄物問題と住宅政策」が査読を経て『経済政策ジャーナル』に掲載された。これは昨年度の研究に基づくものであるが、今年度の改訂の際に住宅選択時の環境負荷にかんする消費者選好の多様性を分析するために、計量モデル(Random Parameter Logit Model)を選好パラメタの相関を含めるかたちに展開し、そうした選好の多様性をふまえて建築廃棄物問題と現状の住宅政策にかんする考察を行った。 第二に、とりわけ情報の不完全性と繰り返される消費者行動と環境の認識を分析するための研究「環境・品質情報の信頼性と消費者行動」が査読を経て『国民経済雑誌』に掲載された。本研究では離散選択モデルと計数データモデルを併用することで、繰り返し選択と環境認識の関係を分析した。また、先の研究とあわせて、消費者選択の頻度によって情報の影響の差異があり、環境評価手法における注意点をあわせて整理した。 第三に、情報の質と量が消費者行動に影響することが定量的に示した以上の研究を発展させ、情報の受け手側の性質に注目して情報過負荷現象の発生と抑制のメカニズムを分析する研究に着手した。本年度は、消費者への情報提供や教育・啓蒙活動の影響を分析する研究を行った。知識や関心が高くなければ環境情報は適切に処理されず選択における混乱(行動誤差)の原因になること、そして知識の提供や専門家とのコミュニケーションはそうした誤差を抑制する作用があることを示した。
