Building sustainable communities and their worldwide network | Hiroyuki Sato | TEDxKyoto

Hiroyuki Sato, the CEO of AMITA Institute for Sustainable Economies Co., Ltd. seeks to create an environmentally sustainable community that includes renewable energies, resources and food based on the local natural sources.

In today’s world people have come to expect foods and products from across the globe to be readily and locally available. However once upon a time our lives were lived much closer to the land upon which we stood. Hiroyuki Sato, the CEO of AMITA Institute for Sustainable Economies Co., Ltd. seeks to re-establish our ties to our local environments. He has been making his goals a reality since 2011, when he began working with AMITA’s Tohoku Office. There, he has helped create an environmentally sustainable community that includes renewable energies, resources and food based on the local natural sources. It is Hiroyuki’s hope that as we re-focus our energies on building locally and environmentally sustainable communities, we also reinforce our ties with each other to create a richness of spirit that goes far beyond money.
