Item Description
At Katsurashima Island of Shiogama City, which floats on the Matsushima Bay, one in every two residents is over 65 years old. Although the island received damage from the tsunami, they did not have a single casualty from the Great East Japan Earthquake. The islanders cooperated with each other to protect lives that cannot be saved by teachings such as “tsunami tendenko” (to each his/her own) and “proactive evacuation,” which encourage the protection of your own life.
