Towards Zero Emissions

The Environmental Vision 2021 program is a demonstration of the Mitsubishi Electric Group's commitment to achieving zero emissions status and promoting the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) in order to help bring about a recycling-based society. Completely eliminating waste that goes directly to landfills requires that waste be efficiently reused and recycled. Based on proposals made by local area environmental managers, Mitsubishi Electric has initiated a recycling system involving the coordinated efforts of multiple local production areas in June 2007. This type of system is actually quite rare in this industry, so it has garnered the wider attention of the industry as a leading example of progressive cross-regional waste recycling.
