basic philosophy
while our business activities contribute to the economy and society, they also put a heavy burden on the global environment. we at the konoike group are unified in resolving global environmental issues for sustainable development. greenhouse gas emissions are an inevitable part of our business. we must make efforts to reduce these emissions at all business sites. when the kyoto protocol came into effect in 2005, we established our basic environmental policy. this policy outlined our basic environmental philosophies and five action guidelines. based on these guidelines, we set environmental targets for each business site and strive to achieve them. in addition, we are taking environmental issues in society head-on using the unique characteristics of our businesses. examples include reverse logistics and recycling businesses, which play a role in the recycling-oriented society.
