In an effort to combat the ageing population, encouraging and appealing to young couples to start a family is vital. I think clearing enough space for proper housing is essential. Advertising campaigns that persuade young couples to move out into the suburbs and into rural areas is the first effort to encourage couples to start a family and, thus, keeping a balance in Tokyo's age demographic.
The rate of building of further high rise apartments should halt, and in replace, make more room for suburbs and communities. Tokyo, should harbour examples from Victoria's own advertising campaign 'Good Move' which is encouraging couples and families to move to rural Victoria to combat the ever growing population in urban areas. Tokyo's aim should be appealing towards couples and encourage their movement into the outer areas of the city, and in the same time, establishing communities. Moving offices, workplaces and any essential income earning institutes should also make a move out of the city as this is a major influence for whether people make the decision to move.
Clearing space is a major issue for Tokyo as most of the city occupies skyscrapers, high rise office buildings and apartments, therefore, the rate of urban sprawl in Tokyo is very low. Encouraging this, however, can be greatly beneficial socially and economically. It also could answer Tokyo's ongoing traffic congestion and transportation problems in the central part of the city, as more people are dispersed in the outer areas of the city, rather than being packed into one central district.
In the past, Tokyo has been faced with chronic air pollution, water pollution and traffic congestion. Now, its condition has eased, as well as its economic stability and overall recovery from the recent earthquake and nuclear meltdown. Nonetheless, there is still a considerable amount of air and water pollution, and getting around in Tokyo is still hectic, but, the Government and that people of Tokyo have made a vast improvement over the previous years.
