Local government council aiming for sustainability

He participates in the international city network, which is made up of more than 1,500 municipalities aiming for sustainability, and is engaged in various activities as a Director of Japan Ikley.

In addition to participating in study sessions of member local governments and Ikley Sustainable Urban Study Group (Ikurei Cafe), which is held once a month in Japan, exchange opinions and information with other cities, I participate in various international conferences sponsored or involved in various international conferences hosted or involved. In 2018, at COP24 held in Katowice, Poland, hosted by Ikley and the Ministry of the Environment at COP24 held in Katowice, Poland, and also participated in a session hosted by the Convention Secretariat.

Yokohama City is participating in the Global Covenant of Mayors, which was launched in January 2017 as a platform for disseminating and appealing initiatives by local governments on climate change mitigation and adaptation measures. With more than 7,100 participating municipalities from 119 countries, it will be the world's largest intercity collaboration on climate change countermeasures with more than 7,100 participating municipalities from 119 countries. Participating municipalities will publish existing reduction targets and plans, make annual reports on their progress through the official reporting platform of the Compact of Mayors, carbonn Climate Registry or CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project), which is the official reporting platform of the Compact of Mayors, and steadily implement adaptation measures. We pledge to formulate an adaptation plan within three years. This participation and performance is also effectively implemented with support from Ikley.

Climate change countermeasures and adaptation measures are not issues that can be solved in a single city, but it is important to share knowledge with various cities and work together to work together. We will work to strengthen cooperation with the world's largest city network, and will actively work on it.
