Conservation Initiatives for Biodiversity

Approach to Biodiversity

As an automotive parts manufacturer, the Company recognizes that the preservation of biodiversity is essential for a sustainable society. In accordance with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (COP15) and the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP) of Japan 2023-2030, we will work to prevent biodiversity loss by reducing the　environmental impact of our business activities and aim to build a sustainable business model. As a member of the local community, we believe that ensuring biodiversity conservation is a fundamental aspect of our corporate social responsibility.

Specific Initiatives to Conserve Biodiversity: Ecosystem Surveys

As part of our efforts to build a foundation for biodiversity conservation, we have been conducting ecosystem surveys in phases since FY2023. Based on the scientific knowledge of the current biodiversity at respective locations obtained through these surveys, we plan conservation activities appropriate for local ecosystems. We plan to begin specific activities based on the survey results step by step and disclose their progress and results on an ongoing basis.

Case example: Fujisawa District　In view of the ecosystem survey results two years ago, we began working to create an environment that attracts more insects

Based on the ecosystem survey results, we began working to create an environment where insects thrive. More specifically, we have set up a butterfly garden and biotope and hold biotope making workshops inviting employees and their families to join as an opportunity to expose children, who will be the leaders of the future, to biodiversity.

Social Contribution Activities and Nature Conservation Activities

We are dedicated to the sustainable development of society through our various social contribution activities across many areas of business. We will continue these efforts, believing that our day-by-day actions will lead to the conservation of local nature.
