where CO 2 reduction effect of a part X is expressed as R Xrebuilt ; CO 2 emissions from
producing a locally-repaired part is expressed as E L (Nakajima et al. 2012).
12.6.4 Annual Changes of CO 2 Reduction Figure
for Recycled Parts
The effect of Green Point System for nine years from 2010 is summarized in Fig. 12.6.
Although there is some ups and downs, the annual changes in CO 2 reduction figure
has been stable, with total reduction amount of 1,273,000 t-CO 2 for nine years.
It can be said that the system has made a significant contribution to environment,
which is equivalent to 90,928,500 cedar trees. The details are shown in Table 12.1.
12.7 Domestic Response
Domestically, the system has been appreciated by many administrative agencies and
companies. Especially, it is highly evaluated by administrative agencies and new
collaborations with the organizations using this system have been emerged, which
