Initiatives for Achieving Carbon Neutrality

This is an introduction to our Impact Assessment key initiatives.

Yamaha Motor produces motorcycles, outboard motors and other core products that emit CO₂, but at the same time we strive to prevent global warming through a variety of initiatives aimed at reducing greenhouse gases that cause climate change.
