Invitation for Second Submissions of 2009 Model Projects for the Promotion of Sustainable Urban Renewal

The Ministry of the Environment (MOE) invites second submissions of model projects for the promotion of sustainable urban renewal in which the projects incorporate progressive measures against global warming, including aggressive CO2 reduction plans, the evaluation of CO2 reduction, and public communication.

The current increase in public awareness towards global warming, the development of the Kyoto Protocol Target Achievement Plan and the Action Plan for Achieving a Low-Carbon Society"mean that all business activities must deal with global warming. The MOE urges companies actively fighting global warming to take this as an opportunity to participate in urban renewal for effective CO2 reduction.
