Based on the concept of eco-efficiency, we have set goals to ensure that all people can lead affluent lifestyles in harmony with the Earth.
Eco-efficiency can be expressed as a fraction, with the creation of new value as the numerator and environmental impacts as the denominator. The more enriched value created—or the more environmental impact is reduced and progress made toward coexisting with the Earth—the more eco-efficiency improves. We call the degree of improvement in eco-efficiency the “Factor,” and increasing the Factor leads to affluent lifestyles in harmony with the Earth.
