Reducing Environmental Impact
|
 |
|
Easing the burden on the global environment and creating a society and economy that are in balance with the environment are major issues for the people of this century. To unify each Group company's conduct with the same philosophy, MUFG has formulated a Group environmental statement and policy, and is contributing to the realization of a sustainable economy and society by promoting eco-friendly activities. These activities include reducing the use of paper for copying, increasing the use of recycled paper, recycling used paper and other waste materials and encouraging staff to wear lighter garments in the summer to combat global warming by saving energy. Additionally, each Group company is seeking to conduct its business operations in an environmentally conscious way.
