It is necessary to take optimal choices depending on energy availability to reduce
CO2 emissions as quickly as possible and as much as possible.

Summary of our presentation
 Only 15% of the SDGs` target are ON TRACK at the midpoint.
 Importance of “the range of pathways” or “multi-pathwayapproaches” are supported by G7 countries and IPCC reports.

 Japan has succeeded to reduce CO2 through expanding
lineup of electrified vehicles.
 Variety of options (technologies/efforts) to reduce CO2
emissions toward carbon neutrality are steadily in theimplementation phase.
 It is necessary for stakeholders in “Production”,“Transportation”, “Utilization” to unite and take actions
right away toward tackling climate change.
