Efforts to Prevent Global Warming
In order to prevent global warming, we will move forward with energy savings in our plants and offices, cut emissions of greenhouse gases, build efficient logistical networks and provide IT solutions together with products that save or stimulate the saving of energy. We will do this throughout the entire life cycles of our business activities.
Basic Approach
We are working to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases associated with all our group business activities. These efforts include reducing emissions of CO2 due to energy consumption and other greenhouse gases at our factories and offices and reducing emissions associated with transportation. Furthermore, we are working to prevent global warming throughout all areas of business activity by contributing to reduced emissions of greenhouse gases by our customers, industry, and society in general by developing IT products that achieve energy savings and by providing IT solutions that have the effect of reducing environmental burden.

Low Carbon Committee Newly Established
Since preventing global warming will become an increasingly important business issue and will have a correspondingly greater effect on the way we conduct our operations, we set up a new Low Carbon Committee at the corporate level.
The committee's remit is to make those in charge of our businesses aware of the quantities of CO2 emissions associated with their operations and to deliberate and formulate clear policies on how our businesses should be operated in the Group as a whole with attention to global warming.
Specifically, the committee has begun discussing policies such as setting reduction targets and business evaluation indicators for each business group and budgeting for equipment investment.
Bussiness Office Activities
Reducing the environmental burden in office, such as saving energy, Reducing waste generated.
Cuts in Carbon Dioxide Emissions in the Distribution Process
As a manufacturer that must transport its products, we, and others charged with transporting our goods, are reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the distribution process ( these are known as "Green Logistics " activities).
Procurement, Waste, Recycling Activities
Redicing greenhouse gas emissions at the material procurement and waste, recycle stage.
Environmental Engagement in Products and Software & Services
By providing our customers with environmental solutions and products designed to save energy, we will reduce carbon dioxide that is produced when our products are used.
Energy-saving Designs for Our Products
We are working to improve the energy-saving performance of our products through the development of Super Green Products and Green Products. Based on this, we have been able to attain various energy-savings standards and target levels, which will reduce the power consumed when our products are used.
Providing Environmental Solutions
We compute the reduction in carbon dioxide emissions that would result from introducing an IT solution, and inform customers of this as part of our solution offering. Also, we certify those IT solutions where carbon dioxide emissions can be cut by 15% or greater as Environmentally Conscious Solutions and provide certification to our customers.
