The Central Environment Council recommended a "Vision for a Virtuous Circle for Environment and Economy in Japan" on May 13, 2004, to the Minister of the Environment.
The aim of the Vision for a Virtuous Circle for Environment and Economy in Japan is to establish a "Healthy, Rich and Beautiful Environmentally-Advanced Country" by realizing a virtuous circle for the environment and the economy, based on the concept that our actions for environmental issues will boost the economic growth while the resultant economic growth will further improve the environment. FY 2025 is set as the year for an interim goal to accomplish this vision.
