The Climate Group（温室効果ガス排出量削減に取り組む国際NPO)がCDP（環境情報公開を推進する国際NGO)の支援の下、過去1年間のRE100（事業運営を100%再生可能エネルギーで調達することを目標に掲げる企業が加盟するイニシアチブ）参加企業の進捗やアンケートを集計し、その分析結果から得られた示唆や、先進的取組事例等をまとめた年次報告書（2019年版）である。 特に注目される動向としては、PPAs（電力販売契約）の件数が記録を更新すると共に、回答企業の65%が2020年末までに再エネ普及に直接的な影響力のある調達方法（PPA、オンサイト発電等）を検討しており、今後もこの傾向がさらに強まることが予測されている点である。また、新たな参加企業56社のうち、44...

In this volume, we seek to contribute to the understanding of how different kinds of values, which have been called “multiple values of nature”, are provided and maintained through sustainable use of biodiversity in socio-ecological production landscapes and seascapes (SEPLS) management. Included here are case studies that demonstrate how...

When we think about land use, the concept sounds somewhat distant from our day-to-day lives; however, various resources, including food...

In this volume, we seek to contribute to the understanding of how different kinds of values, which have been called “multiple values of nature” (we will use the initialism “MVN” for the purposes of this volume), are provided and maintained through sustainable use of biodiversity in socio-ecological production landscapes and seascapes (SEPLS).
