The situation surrounding waste administration has changed with the times, and there is a need to respond to various issues such as achieving the SDGs, realizing a decarbonized society, plastic measures and reducing food loss, responding to diverse social needs, and developing facilities with a view to the future. In order to steadily respond to these changes in the times, we have formulated the “Yokohama Plan 5.3 (garbage) plan (Yokohama City General Waste Treatment Basic Plan)”.
In Yokohama City, with the cooperation of citizens and businesses, the reduction of garbage has progressed significantly in about 20 years from 2001.
This plan aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from waste disposal and contribute to the realization of a decarbonized society by focusing on reducing plastic waste contained in burnable garbage in addition to 3Rs and stable waste disposal.

Overview of the Plan

Plan period: FY2023 (Reiwa 5) to FY2030 (Reiwa 12)
Target: Reduce plastic waste in burnable garbage by 20,000 tons (compared to FY2022)

(5.3 kg per citizen)

We will promote six policies to realize our basic philosophy and achieve our goals.
