Fujitsu Limited, ANA X Inc., Toshiba Data Corporation, and Kawasaki City announced the launch of a pilot program aimed at achieving a decarbonized society through utilizing each company’s smartphone application. The program will commence from February 27, 2025.
This pilot program will utilize a database, developed by the Ministry of the Environment and other companies, to visualize CO2 reductions and provide feedback to residents and workers of Kawasaki City on their CO2 reductions achieved through environmentally conscious actions. This is the first trial in Japan to use this database. The program aims to quantitatively assess citizen environmental actions, promote individual environmental awareness, and contribute to the realization of a decarbonized society.
Japan aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, targeting a 46% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by FY2030 (compared to FY2013). To achieve this target, a significant reduction in CO2 emission from citizens’ daily lives is indispensable.

Kawasaki City has set ambitious targets of a 50% reduction in city-wide CO2 emissions and a 45% or greater reduction in household emissions in the city by FY2030 (both compared to FY2013), actively pursuing initiatives to achieve a decarbonized society.
Moreover, 富士通, ANA X そして Toshiba Data have been actively engaged in discussions within the framework of the Ministry of the Environment’s ‘Decokatsu’, a national movement to change people’s behavior and lifestyles toward the achievement of carbon neutrality.
Under this national movement, The POSITIVE ACTION Initiative (PAI), an initiative to create a new and prosperous lifestyle connected to decarbonization, towards creating a world where citizens actively engage in environmental actions. This pilot program serves as the first step in our efforts to promote the early social implementation of the newly developed CO2 reduction standard metric, contributing to our decarbonization initiatives.
