The logistics business generates a large amount of CO2 emissions, which are a cause of global warming (17.4% of Japan’s CO2 emissions by industry in 2021*). Therefore, efforts to reduce CO2 emissions are an urgent task. We also recognize that reducing CO2 emissions during the transportation of customer cargo (Scope 3) is also an Material Issue. In response, NX GROUP has positioned reducing CO2 emissions as an important issue to be addressed for sustainable business growth and is actively working on this issue. NX GROUP has set as medium- and long-term CO2 emission reduction targets for the entire Group with the goal of reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% from 2013 levels by 2030 and contributing to the realization of a carbon-neutral society by 2050. Aiming to achieve these targets, we will strive to reduce CO2 emissions from our own operations. At the same time, we will work to provide products and services that contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions during the transportation of customer cargo. In this way, we will contribute to the conservation of the global environment, which is a prerequisite for the survival of our business, as we pursue opportunities for business growth.
