【The Third Symposium】
logo

 Thank you everyone for coming out and participating with us.
 The symposium was a huge success with outstanding participation.


Purpose

It has been three years since the Tokyo Zero-emission Innovation Bay (hereinafter referred to as "Zero-emission Bay") was established. During this period, the path to achieving carbon neutrality has accelerated even more than when the Zero-emission Bay was established, including the government's declaration to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the establishment of the Green Innovation Fund, and the enactment of the GX Promotion Act.
At this year's symposium, we will discuss the challenging task of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 and the role that Zero-emission Bay should play in it, based on these domestic and international trends.
Zero-emission Bay has been discussing the creation of carbon-neutral models from the Tokyo Bay area and how to disseminate information about them, centered on the Zero-emi Vision Study Working Group. Based on the results so far, we will discuss the efforts and issues to be addressed for carbon neutrality, the role of each stakeholder and others.
We look forward to your participation.
