The Kanto Plain, Tokyo is one of three large cities, the other two is Yokohama and Kawasaki, located along the northwestern shore of Tokyo Bay. Tokyo also intersected by the Sumida River , that has an extensive network of canals.
Land reclamation project = Tokyo's available surface area by filling in the bay + providing room for waste disposal, additional port facilities, and new residential areas.
Pollution of the environment = public offense. While the national government is often slow to address environmental issues,growing public pressure has led to legislation requiring industrial polluters to rectify any environmental damage for which they are responsible. regardless of widespread use of bicycles and public transportation, automobile exhaust is a problem in Tokyo. The imposition of emission standards has lately eliminated some of the smog that has plagued the city.
