Over the past several years, global warming has come to be recognized as a common human concern worldwide.
In the face of ongoing climate change and weather abnormalities, participants at the L’Aquila Summit in Italy called for a global consensus to keep the rise in temperatures by 2020 to within 2°C of levels recorded prior to the Industrial Revolution. The industrial world is now under pressure to transition from a resource-consumption paradigm to a knowledge-intensive industrial base. At the same time, human values are shifting sharply toward environmental preservation, and to energy and resource conservation.
Measures to confront global warming are the top priority facing companies worldwide today. ORIX is partnering with a host of companies to address environmental concerns through business.
The leasing business is originally an eco-conscious enterprise itself, since it promotes efficient long-term use of lease property rather than ownership. In this sense, eco-friendliness is embedded in ORIX’s DNA. By leveraging finance, consulting, sales, maintenance and many other functions honed over the years, ORIX, as an Eco Services Integrator, will deliver environmentally sound products tailored to customer needs.
