Biodiversity

Fujikura Group is deeply aware that its business activities are closely related to the global environment, and aims to make every effort to protect the global environment, advocating the goal of being a "corporate group that is friendly to both people and the global environment." All living things live by supporting each other directly and indirectly, and our lives and livelihoods are supported by the many blessings brought about by biodiversity.
In response to requests for greening from local residents and increased attention to biodiversity when Fujikura Group established the Fujikura-Kiba Millennium Woods on the site of its head office in November 2010. In addition, in November 2016, the Fujikura Sakura Millennium Woods Project was launched, and the Fujikura Sakura Millennium Woods was developed within the Sakura business.

In 2013, Fujikura Group formulated the "Fujikura Group Biodiversity guideline" and the "Fujikura Group Long-Term Biodiversity Vision and Roadmap 2030," and is working to raise awareness of biodiversity conservation among each and every Fujikura employee.

As part of the redevelopment of its head office area (Koto-ku, Tokyo), Fujikura Group established the bio garden "Fujikura-Kiba Millennium Woods" in November 2010. This is the flagship of Fujikura Group 's efforts to protect biodiversity.
In 2013, in order to expand biodiversity conservation efforts to the entire group, we proposed turning the green spaces owned by each of Fujikura Group 's business sites into Satoyama parks, and developed a roadmap leading up to 2030.

"Fujikura Sakura Millennium Forest" Project

The Fujikura Group Fujikura Group established the Fujikura Sakura Millennium Forest Project in November 2016 from the perspective of Fujikura employee health management activities based on Fujikura Group 's Health Management Declaration, and has been considering how to utilize the naturally rich green space that spreads within the grounds of the Fujikura Sakura business (Sakura City, Chiba Prefecture).
For this project, a vegetation survey was conducted by a specialist biodiversity consultant, and a zoning plan for the Millennium Forest was created. Based on this plan, we have promoted the creation of a satoyama green space, including the protection of rare plants, the cutting down of densely packed trees, the planting of native species, and the development of walking paths. Through these activities, a green space of approximately 32,000 m2 has been developed as "Fujikura Sakura Millennium Forest." The forest is also used for Fujikura employee training, a "Children's Tour: Forest Exploration & Sweet Potato Digging Event" for Fujikura employee' families, and other activities to promote employee health and vitality.
The Sakura business 's "Children's Exciting Field Trip" was held for the first time in six years after being canceled due to typhoons and the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants enjoyed the beautiful nature of Sakura Millennium Forest and thoroughly enjoyed the hiking experience. Children were engrossed in digging sweet potatoes. We plan to continue holding events that Fujikura employee and their families can enjoy.
