Homework:Martinique: Henri Guedon

Q,Martinique finally banned the use of the insecticide kepone in 1993, but the effects are still causing problems today. Have there been any similar cases in your country?

A,Yes. My country had that likely case. The case was a pollution related illness. It was about Japanese post-war economic miracle in 1950's~1970's. The big damage occurred to inhabitants by pollution. That a big thing of the damage was called "four major pollution-related illnesses". I'll give a example of this history,"Minamata disease" . The cause of this pollution-related illness was the waste fluid which Chisso drained into the sea. It was about 3,000 number of designated victims.

It's terrible, and I wish never happen this like pollution in the world
