2017 AEON RYUKYU Reduction of CO2 Emissions
AEON RYUKYU proactively promotes environmental preservation campaign with our customers.
Most familiar examples are “bring your own shopping bag” and “in-store recycling box”.
Encouraging customers to carry own reusable shopping bags reduces the use of plastic bags,
and this contributes to saving resources and CO2 emissions reduction.
In-store recycling box aims to reduce household waste by collecting food trays and paper cartons,
for the purpose of reusing resources.
