NYK aims for double digit CO₂ reduction

NYK announced that it achieved a 10.8% CO₂ emissions reduction at its offices in fiscal 2008, compared with the previous year. NYK’s goal for the fiscal year was a 10 percent reduction, and the company was able to achieve its target by introducing eco-friendly facilities at the head office, among other initiatives.

In fiscal 2009, NYK is aiming for a 5% reduction over fiscal 2008 through more efficient operation of head office facilities, such as optimizing air conditioning and continual CO₂ reduction campaigns.

The company established the Eco-Efficiency Office Committee in 2001 to introduce and address environmental issues such as global warming, and will continue to make every effort to preserve the environment.
