Address Climate Change and Environmental Preservation
As a medium- to long-term environmental management plan to contribute to the realization of the NEC Group Vision 2017, NEC developed an action plan in June 2010 called the NEC Group Environmental Management Action Plan 2017/2030. Under the plan, NEC is tackling three key themes－low carbon, ecosystem and biodiversity preservation, and resource recycling and conservation.
Biodiversity Preservation Programs at the Abiko Plant
NEC’s Abiko Plant is located in a rich natural environment, centered on four ponds. The area around the ponds is home to a brook damselfly (Copera tokyoensis), which is an endangered species. Also inhabiting the ponds are exotic fish that threaten native species and are upsetting the environmental balance.
NEC collaborated with the Teganuma Pond Aquatic Life Research Society in completely draining one of the ponds to remove numerous exotic fish. Employees and their families took part in an initiative to set up a biotope to protect the brook damselfly.
In fiscal 2013, Around 300 people participated in 4 flora and fauna observation events.
