Biodiversity and Environmental CSR

Respecting and cherishing all living species on our planet 

Biodiversity — plants, animals and micro-organisms — all rely on each other, as well as the air, water and soil ecosystems. Both businesses and humans are negatively affected by biodiversity loss, and the risks of jeopardizing the health of our critical ecosystems are great.

We support a sustainable society. This includes not only reducing our environmental impact, but working to conserve biodiversity and enhance ecosystems. We believe these activities will not only heal the present environment, but set the stage for future repair and recovery.

Think and act globally and locally

To coincide with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), World Environment Day, we participate in Ricoh Global Eco Action Day. On June 5 every year, all members of the Ricoh Group worldwide are encouraged to think about and take environmental actions, wear green to show their commitment, and share eco-mindfulness with a larger audience.

Some of the local actions taken include:

  • Cleaning up parks and shorelines.
  • Planting trees and native plants.
  • Hosting learning programs on environmental sustainability.

To further underscore the importance of sustainability, we work with partners from government and non-government organizations, as well as our stakeholders, to achieve shared goals.

We hope we inspire you to do more, too.
