Our Approach
Nissan aims to reduce environmental impact through improving technologies and business processes. Driven by Nissan’s corporate purpose, we have devised a comprehensive framework to consistently deliver positive impact.
Nissan Green Program 2022
Nissan Green Program 2022 (NGP2022) served as Nissan’s comprehensive environmental action plan from 2017 to 2022. This program aimed to expedite initiatives in combating climate change, reducing resource dependency, improving air quality, and addressing water scarcity issues.
Climate Change
Climate Change
We are committed to achieving carbon neutrality through our daily operations and the lifecycle of our products by 2050. We will prioritize electrification and manufacturing technology as key enablers of Nissan achieving its carbon neutrality goal.
Air Quality
Air Quality
We strive to develop technologies that lead to cleaner vehicle emissions as well as improving the in-cabin environment. Efforts include expanding electrification, developing more intelligent vehicles, and embracing innovative monozukuri – a synthesis of tech and know-how that encompasses how industry is viewed in Japan.
Water Scarcity
Water Scarcity
Dive into our efforts to reduce water consumption and effectively manage water quality through monozukuri, demonstrating our commitment to caring for ecosystem services.
Resource Dependency
Resource Dependency
Nissan has adopted the “circular economy” approach whereby we invest maximum effort in reusing and recycling materials, thus lowering the demand for resource extraction. Nissan is not only actively recycling but we are also seeking to replace newly-mined resources with sustainable alternatives in the design, procurement, and production stages.
Business Foundation
Business Foundation
As a global company, we have a responsibility to address diverse environmental challenges. We use Life Cycle Assessments to identify risks throughout a vehicle’s lifespan, collaborate with suppliers to improve their environmental performance, and work with NGOs to tackle climate change, water crises, and support local communities.
