Abstract
In December 2019, TMG launched its Zero Emission Tokyo Strategy and the Plastic Strategy. Both these plans inherit the goals of the Tokyo 2020 Sustainability Plan, including “Towards Zero Carbon,” and aim at realizing “Zero Emission Tokyo” which will be contribute to the global net-zero CO2 by 2050, pursuing 1.5 °C above preindustrial levels. The Plastic Strategy introduces the vision of a carbon-closed cycle and lays out TMG’s actions for prevention, re-use, and closed-loop recycling. Tokyo 2020 will be an opportunity to think globally and act locally again.
