Nearly half a century has passed since the ruling on the Yokkaichi Air Pollution Lawsuit was announced. Yokkaichi City continues even today to bring citizens, industries and the government together as one to establish wide-ranging initiatives directing towards the environment.
Yokkaichi City aims at becoming a sustainable city that can be proud of its environment by capitalizing on the experiences and lessons we learned from the Yokkaichi Pollution to initiate activities and other measures to protect and nurture the local natural environment on an individual basis and through collaborative efforts.
