Response to Climate Change
In recent years, extreme weather events have occurred all over the world, and society’s interest in the issue of climate change is growing. TASAKI will work to contribute to prevent climate change.
Risks and Opportunities of Climate Change
One of the causes of climate change is believed to be the increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere due to the massive consumption of fossil fuels such as oil and coal.
As climate change progresses, policies such as the imposition of carbon taxes and the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions may increase the economic burden on businesses. On the other hand, given the growing interest in environmental issues today, if companies can build a sustainable brand image by clarifying our stance on environmental issues and taking concrete actions, they may be able to enjoy demand from a new segment of consumers. To minimize risks and maximize opportunities, TASAKI believes it is necessary to conduct business operations that do not rely on fossil fuels.
Initiatives to Prevent Climate Change
TASAKI engages in the following initiatives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
- To minimize energy consumption in working places, such as air conditioning and lighting, we hold regular training sessions to raise employees’ awareness of saving energy.
- We are gradually replacing the lights in our ateliers, pearl farms, offices, stores and other facilities with LEDs, which consume less energy.
- We also keep the operation of the engines on our pearl farm vessels to a minimum.
- We are looking at ways to not only reduce energy consumption but also create it, such as installing solar panels at our pearl farms.
- At our Kobe office, we are working to curb energy consumption by upgrading large facilities, such as cooling towers, which improve air conditioning efficiency, air conditioners and elevators.
- We aim to further reduce energy consumption by reducing the hours that store façade lighting stays on at night and improving the efficiency of air conditioning, including periodic simultaneous ventilation.
- We achieved a reduction in copy paper consumption by bringing some of our internal application systems fully online (introduced in November 2022).
TASAKI Vision
Our aim for 2030 is to be a jewellery brand that co-exists with nature by switching to renewable energy, achieving zero emissions, and conserving ecosystems, to protect the marine and mining environments that help create our precious jewellery.
