Honda’s head office acquired ISO 14001 certification in November 1999 and has since been committed to reducing the environmental impacts caused by its business activities. Associates have engaged in activities to reduce their environmental impacts as part of their office work, and the environmental impacts directly caused by the Aoyama Head Office building have been reduced. In fiscal 2004, we promoted new measures implemented to introduce environmental viewpoints into daily business activities at the Aoyama Head Office building. We believe these measures are important because the operations we conduct inside the building, due to their nature, indirectly cause very large environmental impacts outside the building.
In addition, following the start of operations at the Wako Building, Honda’s offices in the Aoyama Building, Wako Building, Yaesu Building, and Shirako Building enhanced cooperative measures to reduce their environmental impacts. As a result, in fiscal 2004, CO2 emissions and waste from these four office buildings totaled 14,276 tons and 302 tons, respectively.
In fiscal 2005, we will enhance our efforts to further reduce their environmental impacts through mutual cooperation to achieve the reduction targets of 2.7% for CO2 emissions and 22.4% for waste generation. We will implement environmental improvement activities in all business operations to make our offices more environmentally friendly and greener for the conservation of the global environment.
