Minister Koizumi attended the Global Warming Summit and said no concrete measures September 24, 8:22
Minister Koizumi, visiting New York, attended the UN Global Warming Summit on behalf of the Japanese government. While each country has launched a major introduction of renewable energy, this time Japan did not show any concrete new initiatives.
At the summit for global warming, the summit of 60 countries, including German Chancellor Merkel, attended the UN Secretary General Guterres, and announced new initiatives such as the significant introduction of renewable energy.
On the other hand, Prime Minister Abe of Japan did not attend, but instead Mr. Koizumi attended, but there was no opportunity to speak about specific measures.
While claims about the global warming situation, especially among young people, are growing more critical than ever in the world, Japan says that measures are inadequate, such as the expansion of coal-fired power plants that emit carbon dioxide. Some points out.
Mr. Koizumi attended an international conference for the first time since he took office, but there is hardly any specific new content compared to countries that are active in combating global warming. The question is whether to go.
