1. Introduction
Why now the green technologies Society growth should be limited by various and
intertwined complicate factors such as population, food
supply, pollution, finite natural resources, and industrial
output, which should impose a limit to the growth of
society including regional developments as well.
Green technologies must be one of important solutions to
this limitation.
The Rome Club founded in 1970s gives us thought-
provoking arguments even nowadays.

2. Brief Overview of Yamaguchi Prefecture
• Previously, rich resources such as salt, rice and paper, so-called “three whites”
• Rich natural resources such as coal, limestone, and soda induced modernization of industries in the 20th century
• Recently, the chemicals and petrochemical complexes prospers

Particularly Notable Features of Yamaguchi Prefecture’s Industry Source: “Yamaguchi Prefecture's Industry” (2012)
Basic material industries support Yamaguchi prefecture In Taisho Era(1912-1926 ) , various factories such as shipbuilding, chemicals, machinery, and metal engineering etc. moved aggressively into Yamaguchi one by one along Seto inland sea. After the world-war, petrochemical complexes were conformed , and they contributed to evolve Yamaguchi to a leading industrial prefecture. In the western part the previous coal mining industries reformed timely to chemicals, petroleum, ceramics etc industries, while in the eastern part chemical companies for sodas were accumulated around petroleum refinery complexes.
Industries for transport machineries, electronic components, and drug medicines accumulated In Yamaguchi , transport machinery industries prospered as well in addition to the basic materials, and big companies such as vehicle maker [MAZDA], railway car maker [Hitachi], shipbuilder [Mitsubishi heavy industries] got around , and the related industries also accumulated. Furthermore, mechatronics , electronic component industries prospered and recently, the medicinal chemicals and environmental industries prospered remarkably together with related SMEs , thereby their annual production values have reached the top-class in Japan.
Energetic SMEs accumulated Yamaguchi has a lot of energetic SMEs possessing technical skills high enough to compete world
widely. For example, Yamashita-kogyo Co. proud of sheet metal hammering process applied to the Shinkansen , Hiromoku-Giken Co. proud of super interior decorating technologies. Hibiki-Seiki Co. proud of cutting edge technologies producing the precise parts, e.g. for smart phones and
hybrid cars. Geo Power System Co. puts ventilation systems into market , utilizing earth thermal which were employed in pavilions at the Aichi-Expo (2005).
