Tokyo, as Japan’s capital and largest city, faces significant environmental challenges. These include high energy consumption, waste management issues, and air pollution. However, the city’s government and its businesses have recognized the urgent need to address these issues and have taken proactive measures to promote sustainability.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG) has been at the forefront of these efforts. Its “Tokyo Sustainability Action” plan outlines comprehensive strategies to reduce carbon emissions, enhance energy efficiency, and promote green technologies.
