Nissan Chemical Corp demonstrates limited climate lobbying governance. It states "We have joined the investigation/research projects related to the climate change planned and promoted by JCIA and contributed to working groups in JCIA as members," and responds "Yes" when asked whether it has a public commitment to conduct its engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement. However, the company does not disclose any defined policy or process for reviewing or managing its direct or indirect lobbying activities, nor does it identify any individual or formal body responsible for overseeing the alignment of its policy engagement with its climate strategy, and we found no evidence of routine monitoring procedures or association-review mechanisms to ensure consistency with its stated climate objectives.

Nissan Chemical provides only limited visibility into its climate-policy lobbying. It names two Japanese statutes that frame its engagement – the Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures and the Act on the Rational Use of Energy – and refers to its participation in METI’s GX League and Keidanren’s Carbon Neutral Action Plan, indicating that these platforms are channels for policy dialogue. Beyond citing membership in those forums, however, the company does not explain how it seeks to influence policy: it gives no examples of letters, meetings, consultation responses or other forms of outreach, nor does it identify which ministries, legislators or regulators it addresses. The company also confines its stated objectives to broad aspirations such as support for the Paris Agreement and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, without spelling out the specific legislative amendments, regulatory standards or incentives it is promoting. As a result, readers gain only a partial picture of what issues Nissan Chemical lobbies on, how it conducts that lobbying, and what concrete outcomes it is pursuing.
