Let’s Take Part in Deco-Katsu
Minato City is participating in Deco-Katsu, an initiative aiming at achieving a decarbonized society through changes in daily behavior, and will work together with residents and businesses to promote these efforts. Why not start by rethinking how energy is used in buildings and equipment, and by finding ways to reduce waste?
What is Deco-Katsu?
Deco-Katsu is the nickname for a nationwide movement that promotes a new, richer way of living that contributes to decarbonization. The term combines “deco,” which includes reducing carbon dioxide and eco-friendly practices, with “katsu,” which refers to activities and lifestyle.
