About this page

This page describes Japan's Public Transportation Usage Promotion Management Council under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. It addresses CO² emission reduction targets set by the Kyoto Protocol, particularly focusing on the transportation sector. Private vehicle emissions have increased from 40% to 50% of transport-related CO² over a decade, requiring urgent measures. The council facilitates cooperation between transportation operators, businesses, and government to promote public transit usage and shift from private vehicles to lower-emission transport modes. Since 2005, multiple council meetings have advanced mobility management and eco-commuting initiatives.
