Environment

We believe it is our responsibility to protect a healthy global environment and pass it on to the next generation to “realize a Kirei World in which all life lives in harmony”.
We promote environmental conservation through a variety of initiatives, including support for local environmental activities and environmental education for children, the future leaders of our society.
