Tokyo - QNA
Japan's greenhouse gas emissions fell 3.0% in fiscal 2015 from a year earlier, declining for the second straight year, the Environment Ministry said in a preliminary report released Tuesday.
According to the Japan's (Kyodo) news agency, the fall was partly thanks to further reduction in power consumption at houses, offices and commercial facilities.
Japan's greenhouse gas emissions in fiscal 2015 were 5.2% below fiscal 2005 levels, meaning the country has already met its goal of a 3.8% cut by fiscal 2020.
