The aim is to promote projects that involve with nature and environmental conservation in the watershed of Tama Plant.Going forward, we will work together with the metropolitan government, as well as Tokyo Environmental Public Service Corp., the city of Higashi-Kurume, and Higashikurume Fureai Volunteer to carry out activities.CCBJI was selected as the first recipient of the Certificate of Recognition for Corporate Supporters of the Aso Grasslands, which acknowledges companies and organizations that have made active contributions to Kumamoto Prefecture’s Aso Grasslands Maintenance Program. The certificate was presented to the Kumamoto Plant manager by the governor of Kumamoto Prefecture at the prefectural office.Since 2011, toward solving the social issues of decreasing grassland area, lack of manpower and aging population involved in restoration projects, we have been supporting the Aso Grassland Restoration Project, which works to preserve and restore the Aso Grasslands environment. For many years, we have continued to provide grants to the Project and have supported company employees who volunteer for field burning.Field burning helps to restore and maintain the grasslands and makes a major contribution to grassland water retention and recharging functions, maintenance of the grassland landscape, elimination of harmful insects, and preservation of the living environments of endangered species. The Aso region is home to 56 endangered species of animals and plants, including Polemonium caeruleum, and our support for grassland restoration has led to the protection of diverse life forms.In addition to Aso Grasslands restoration, we also support employees at the Kumamoto Plant in their involvement in other projects in the watershed, such as forest conservation and rice field flooding. CCBJI will continue to support water replenishment activities at its plants and create an environment where employees can actively participate in volunteer activities as a means of solving local issues.Presentation of the certificate (right: the governor of Kumamoto Prefecture)Employees engaged in field burning
