Toyota to Strengthen Its Automobile Recycling Efforts

TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION (TMC) announced today that it will further enhance its efforts in vehicle recycling. TMC always has considered environmental protection as one of the most important aspects of its operations. It has based such activities on the "Toyota Earth Charter" (established January 1992) and the "Toyota Environmental Action Plan" (established February 1993; amended April 1996), which last year were intensified even further under the "Toyota Eco Project." Today's announced plan reinforces numerous activities already underway.
