Japan battles flooding amid deepening climate crisis
Rising rainfall and frequent typhoons test the archipelago's flood defenses
TOKYO -- In October 2019, Typhoon Hagibis made landfall on the Japanese coast near Tokyo, with winds of over 195 kph and waves as high as three-story buildings. The largest typhoon to hit Japan since records began, it slashed through towns and inundated low-lying coastal areas.
Facing the prospect of massive floods, authorities were able to fall back on a recently created defense mechanism: a system of artificial caverns dug into the rock and clay underneath Saitama Prefecture, north of Tokyo. By gulping down 12.18 million cu. meters of water -- about 4,800 Olympic swimming pools worth -- it saved Greater Tokyo from an estimated 26.4 billion yen ($201 million) of damage.
The underground channel, known as the Metropolitan Outer Area Underground Discharge Channel, runs for 6.3 km from east to west. Fifty meters below ground, 177 meters long and 78 meters wide, the pressure-adjusting water tank is a subterranean forest of 18-meter high cement columns that dwarf visitors and create an eerie, cathedral-like ambience straight out of a science fiction film.
