Initiatives to reduce environmental impacts

In response to climate change, as part of the Toshiba Group, we will set mid- to long-term greenhouse gasreduction goals in line with Science Based Targets (SBT) which are based on scientific evidence, and lay outmeasures to help reduce the temperature increase since pre-industrial times to less than 2℃.

In response to the circular economy, we will continue to make maximum use of our ingenuity in reducing the total volume of waste generated and final waste disposal volumes, recycling and also proactively promote high-quality. As for the management of chemical substances, we will make efforts to discontinue the use of substances targeted for reduction mainly through the introduction of alternative substances and process improvements.
