Building a Low Carbon Society First Draft Ministry of the Environment, Japan December.2007 About this paper In May 2007, Japanese Government has identified building Low-Carbon Society and promoting Innovative Technology Development as two keys to make global emission half in 2050. http://www.kantei.go.jp/foreign/abespeech/2007/05/24speech_e.html Ministry of the Environment, Japan has started to develop ideas on Low-Carbon Society’s principles, images and strategies to realize, mainly for Japan. With regard to this work, we don’t be based on numerical scenarios, instead, we try to describe broad direction toward Low-Carbon Society. Please refer to a research program, Japan Low-Carbon Society Scenarios toward 2050” for numerical scenarios. http://2050.nies.go.jp/index.html Images and strategies for Low-Carbon Society should be diverse among countries, depending on their natural environment, developing stages, industrial structures. But we believe elements Japan describes will be useful for other countries and we would like to work together for further development of ideas with international colleagues. This paper is not our conclusion but the starting point and material for discussion. We very much welcome comments from all over the world.
