We are pleased to present the ninth annual Toyota
North America Environmental Report. Since publishing our
last report, much has happened in our world, most significantly
an economic slowdown that has led to a sharp decline in
demand for new vehicles. But our commitment to operating
in harmony with the environment and to our vision for
sustainable mobility has remained the same. Essentially, this
means we look for improvements in our processes across our
operations to reduce our impact on the environment, and we
work in partnership with other companies, government and
academia toward meeting society’s transportation needs in a
sustainable manner.
