Participation in External Initiatives
Isuzu is actively working toward the realization of a sustainable society through its participation in and endorsement of sustainability initiatives.
The United Nations Global Compact

The United Nations Global Compact is a worldwide framework for companies and organizations to act as good corporate citizens and achieve sustainable growth by exercising responsible and creative leadership. Companies and organizations that sign the UN Global Compact are required to support and implement the Compact’s 10 principles in the 4 areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption.
Isuzu is a signatory to the UN Global Compact and a member of the Global Compact Network Japan, a local network in Japan.
Task Force on Climate related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) Recommendations

The TCFD is a task force established by the Financial Stability Board (FSB), an international organization of central banks and financial regulators from major countries, to provide a framework for climate change-related information disclosure. The TCFD's recommendations encourage companies, organizations, and others to disclose information on climate-related risks and opportunities. In Japan, companies and financial institutions that support the TCFD proposal have established the TCFD Consortium to discuss effective information disclosure and how to link disclosed information to appropriate investment decisions by financial institutions and others.
In April 2021, Isuzu endorsed the TCFD proposal and joined the TCFD consortium to disclose information in line with the TCFD framework.
Participation in the GX League

The Green Transformation League (GX League) is a platform for collaboration between companies (GX companies) and industry, academia, and government to achieve the challenging objectives of sustainable growth for present and future societies and carbon neutrality by 2050 and to drive social transformation founded on sustainability.
Isuzu participated in the establishment of the GX League in May 2023 and will collaborate with industry, academia, government, and other stakeholders who share the same vision to promote the transformation of economic and social systems to achieve carbon neutrality.
Carbon-Offset City Gas Buyers Alliance

The Carbon-Offset City Gas Buyers Alliance was established in March 2021 by Isuzu and 15 other companies to promote the use of carbon-offset city gas and enhance its value. It brings together Tokyo Gas, which procures and supplies the gas, and participating companies that purchase it, with the shared goal of contributing to a sustainable society. The use of carbon-neutral energy is an important solution that directly contributes to climate change countermeasures, SDGs, and ESG corporate management.
Aiming for the realization of a decarbonized society by 2050, the Alliance members are promoting efforts to raise public awareness of carbon-offset city gas, improve its evaluation by investment institutions, and establish its position in various domestic systems.
Tokyo Zero-emission Innovation Bay (Zero-emission Bay)
