Main Opinions and Requests from Our Readers and Honda’s Responses
Opinions and Requests regarding Honda Environmental Annual Report 2004
• It is burdensome to read both the Honda Environmental
Annual Report and Honda ECOLOGY. Honda needs to examine
the possibility of integrating these two brochures.
—> This year, we have integrated the Honda Environmental Annual Report and Honda ECOLOGY to not only reduce the burden on readers who had to read two different brochures but also make these reports easier to understand in view of the fact that the reports are becoming more complex due to increased technical details. In this integrated environmental annual report, we will appropriately introduce and explain our commitment to environmental activities in all aspects, including our basic policy toward the environment, environmental conservation activities conducted by our operations, and the future direction of our environmental activities, while focusing on accurately conveying the progress we have made in our environmental activities. As in the previous report, technical jargon was avoided as much as possible, and explanations and comments were added for easier understanding.
•More substantial information about Honda’s advanced research, technologies, and activities need to be included in the report.
—>In this annual report, we have a section entitled “Honda’s Advanced Environmental Measures” to introduce technologies adopted for our products, those that are now under research or already applied, and advanced environmental activities that we are promoting in our business operations.
