The
Production Environment Logistics Subcommittee established in
April 2001 is engaged in activities to lower CO2 emissions and
reduce the usage of packaging and wrapping materials. Improvements
have been made enabling the setting of reduction targets and
collection of data, not only for overall transport volumes but
also for CO2 emissions per unit, which until now was difficult
due to the varied shapes and diverse nature of items to be transported.
Mieruka2 (visualization) has so far been promoted mainly in
Japan. However, Toyota is now considering a more comprehensive
approach by expanding its application to include overseas affiliates.
