As a result of rapid industrialization in East Asia, atmospheric pollution has become a major problem across a wide area that transcends national borders and includes, among others, problems of acid rain and photochemical oxidants. Conducting countermeasures to these problems involves the daily lives of the citizens affected and understanding of the issues is required, not just among policymakers but among ordinary citizens. However, in many countries public awareness of the issues is poorly developed and the promotion of environmental education in schools is a vital issue. In response, this group creates tools that can be used in raising public awareness and conducting environmental education activities in regard to atmospheric pollution including acid rain. Specifically, it produces factsheets taht summarize the problem of atmospheric pollution in each country in East Asia, including the latest monitoring results and countermeasures, distributes these in each country and links up with NGOs to conduct public awareness activities. Also the group has produced and distributed a guidebook for use in environmental prgrams in Asian countries that is based on the participatory learning program focused on conducting experiments demonstrating atmospheric pollution and acid rain implemented in elementary schools in Japan and Thailand in 2007 and 2008.
