Advantest Manufacturing, Inc. (AMI), situated in Kumagaya City, Saitama, has taken part for the second time in Ecolife Day 2007, a summer campaign against global warming organized by Saitama City.
CO2 is a cause of global warming, and in Saitama Prefecture, household emissions make up 19.6% of the prefecture's total CO2 emissions. Compared to the country as a whole, this ratio is high and as such, households in Saitama are being asked to reduce their CO2 output.
Participants in the Ecolife Day campaign receive a sheet detailing simple measures that can be taken in the home to reduce CO2 emissions, which they use as a checklist to mark down which of the measures they carried out over the day. This information is then used to calculate the total saving in CO2 emissions. This year, the number of AMI employees and family members participating totaled 668, well exceeding last year's 90. By carrying out activities such as setting their air conditioning at suitable temperatures and properly separating their waste throughout the day, they managed to reduce their combined CO2 emissions by a total of 583kg.
In order to raise the awareness of employees, an Ecolife Day 2007 stall was also set up at the entrance to AMI's canteen, providing information on how to keep cool in the summer.
We will continue to contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions by participating in Ecolife Day.
