The JS Group recognizes environmental conservation as a priority for develop- ing a sustainable society in the 21st century. With this recognition, it has declared a common environmental statement, “A legacy to our children: a beautiful earth and a quality life,” for the entire Group.

We plan to announce new targets when we formulate our new medium-term management plan, which will begin in April 2011.
