To reduce its impact on the environment, the OKI group established the environmental protection activity program "Oki Eco Plan 21" as the base for its environmental conservation efforts. As the following table shows, the targets set in the "Oki Eco Plan 21 (Version 2006)" were mostly achieved.
In fiscal 2007, our activities will be based on the "Oki Eco Plan 21 (Version 2007)", which includes new measures drafted on the basis of the results from the previous fiscal year.
