In order to quickly achieve a decarbonized society and resolve climate change issues and the energy crisis, we will work with external partners who are aware of the climate change crisis and are committed to achieving the 1.5°C target, and promote global warming countermeasures through collaboration with trade associations and policy advocacy. We regularly check the consistency of our climate change policy/measures with those of our member organizations, and if we believe that an organization's policy/measures are partially inadequate, we will work with the member companies to strengthen their policy/measures. If the policy/measures are significantly inadequate, we will consider the possibility of withdrawing from the organization.
