| In June 2011 the Fuji Group Environmental Vision 2020 was established as guidelines for the Group's environmental activities. The target for the absolute reduction in CO2 emissions and the amount of supplied and discharged water by 2020 was set at 20%. Efforts are also focused on greening the Earth and conserving biodiversity. We have started participating in activities, including Satoyama conservation and tree planting projects, with the purpose of passing our beautiful environment onto future generations. As for CO2 emissions, we have also set reduction targets for overseas Group companies. Since the combined energy consumption is larger in overseas than in Japan, energy saving at overseas Group companies is an important environmental issue for Fuji Oil Group. In particular, in order to achieve the 20% reduction of CO2 emissions, it is important for the Group to continue its steady efforts to save energy, such as by replacing aged facilities with those designed to save energy and implementation of the productivity improvement and challenge (PIC activity), as well as promoting a reduction of water used and discharged. It is also essential to establish innovative energy saving techniques. Given these factors, our vision is not so easy to achieve, but by integrating our resources and the wisdom of the entire Group and with our constant awareness to reduce the influence of our business activities on the environment, each and every Fuji Oil Group employee is determined to accomplish the Environmental Vision 2020. |
