Think and act globally and locally
To coincide with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), World Environment Day, in 2020 we changed the name of our annual “Ricoh Global Eco Event” to “Ricoh Global SDGs Action Day.”
Since 2005, June 5 has been a day when all members of the Ricoh Group worldwide are encouraged to think about and take environmental actions, wear green to show their commitment, and share eco-mindfulness with a larger audience. Additionally, we turn off our billboards and signage — except for our solar- and wind-powered ones — for the day.
Some of the local actions taken by Ricoh employees include:
Cleaning up parks and shorelines.
Planting trees and native plants.
Hosting learning programs on environmental sustainability.
To further underscore the importance of sustainability, we work with partners from government and non-government organizations, as well as our stakeholders, to achieve shared goals.
We hope we inspire you to do more, too.
