The Sea Mystery Executive Committee is a mystery-solving project “Warning from the changing world of the sea” to help children learn and understand the deterioration of the marine environment, which is regarded as a problem all over the world, through “mystery-solving”. -Investigate the changes in the sea- “will be held at” Sunshine Aquarium “(Ikebukuro, Tokyo) and” Hakkeijima Sea Paradise “(Yokohama, Kanagawa). This event will be held as part of the activities of The Nippon Foundation “Sea and Japan Project”.
Currently, marine problems such as plastic waste and overfishing are regarded as problems all over the world. Japan, which is surrounded by the sea on all sides, is no exception, and each and every one of us must “personalize” the marine problems and carry out sea conservation activities that we can do close to us. Therefore, this committee can use marine problems as the theme of the “mystery solving” event, which is said to have a market size of 50 billion yen, and learn, understand, and “personalize” the actual creatures in front of them at the aquarium. We have decided to hold an event.
Participants will use devices such as smartphones that can connect to the Internet and a special kit distributed on the day to solve the mystery using the information installed at the checkpoints in the aquarium. After solving the mystery, you will receive a can badge as a proof. Please come to the event where both adults and children can enjoy learning about the “sea”.
* The number of novelty tin badges is limited and will end as soon as they run out.
