Toyota Environment

Toyota has a long history of concern for the environment, and actively seeks ways to meet the growing transportation needs of society in ways that are less harmful to our Earth. To do that, we consistently examine our products, business strategies, and daily operations carefully, and set goals for environmental improvement.

It's all part of Toyota's Earth Charter and 2010 Global Vision, a commitment to the environment and to the communities where we do business. And it's also part of Toyota's efforts at continuous improvement—from reducing the use of resources and energy in our manufacturing processes to making sure we give something back to the people of the Earth.

Toyota's commitment to the environment guides every decision we make and every action we take. From the creation and improvement of cleaner automotive technologies and waste management techniques to contributions to local environmental and clean-up initiatives, it's a vision that we always keep before us no matter where our business leads us.

At the heart of that vision lies the Toyota Earth Charter, combining "Kaizen," our philosophy of continuous improvement, with responsible environmental stewardship. It's a vision we're naturally proud of and one we hope will help guarantee Canada's prosperity in the 21st century—and beyond.
