Environment

We are committed to preserving a sustainable global environment, and we have undertaken numerous initiatives to reduce the impact of our business on the environment. At the request of the Japanese government, bar associations, and other bodies, we also participate in committees and study groups on climate change and the environment.

Nishimura & Asahi's Environmental Policy is available from the banner below. We are committed to environmental preservation as an integral part of how we operate as a business and, as a member of our community, will continue to undertake numerous initiatives to identify and reduce the impact of our business and that of others on the environment.

Environmental Policy

Specific Initiatives

Implementation of eco-office measures

We take measures to combat global warming and to moderate as much as possible our use of electric power throughout the year, such as through the adjustment of air conditioners. We promote the elimination of plastic straws, the use of paperless and recycling measures, and the use of eco-bags.

When we relocated our Tokyo HQ in 2016, we selected a building designed and constructed with sustainability in mind and significantly reduced our carbon footprint by adopting LEED-certified materials for ceilings, walls and floors. There is a system in our Tokyo HQ building that purifies the water from the moat surrounding the neighboring Imperial Palace. All electricity used in the building has been derived from renewable and decarbonized energy sources since 2021.

From FY2020, N&A’s Tokyo office has been consistently recognized as a "tenant which implements good energy conservation measures (Rank AA)" in the "Program for Evaluating and Announcing the Efforts of Specific Tenants to Address Global Warming" implemented by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. We will continue to promote eco-office measures by continuing our energy-saving system and efforts.
