Environment

Riviera Zushi Marina became the first marina in Asia to receive the Blue Flag certification in 17, a strict international environmental certification that has a long history in the world and is committed to the 2022 SDGs.

As part of environmental protection, we encourage employees to switch to electric vehicles and assist in purchasing.A charging station was also installed at a hotel in the Riviera Zushi Marina, and in an emergency, a system that supplies electricity to the hotel by discharging electricity from an electric vehicle was introduced for the first time in a Japanese hotel.

We are focusing on blue carbon, which absorbs carbon dioxide and fixes it in the sea, as one of the measures to combat the widespread problem of coastal erosion. Using the regeneration of seaweed beds at the marina as a foothold, we aim to expand the branding to Sagami Bay as "Shonan Blue Carbon®," which will lead to a virtuous cycle for fisheries (fish catches and branded fish), environmental education, sustainable tourism, and an increase in the number of people connected to the Blue Carbon Belt®, which will connect to the rest of Japan, thereby restoring the marine natural environment of the island nation of Japan.

Through our support for the Yokosuka Sea Citizens Conference, we have cooperated in activities to protect the rich ocean and protect the ecosystem of marine organisms.

With safety at sea as a top priority, the group quickly patrols and carries out rescue missions, helping to save lives and raising awareness of maritime safety. They have performed over 600 rescue missions (over the 2010 years since 13).

Benefiting from the warm climate of the Seto Inland Sea, Niihama City, Ehime Prefecture, operates the largest solar power generation facility in Shikoku.
Approximately 20 solar panels will generate 54.0MW, providing power for approximately 2 households.

Riviera Zushi Marina's hotels, restaurants, banquet facilities and other facilities use 100% renewable energy.
We are promoting efforts toward decarbonization.

The single-use plastic materials used at events have been replaced with reusable eco-friendly materials, and events such as yacht races and fishing tournaments are being held, where marine litter is collected from boats.

Chargers have been installed in various locations since 2012. We have also introduced workplace charging as part of our employee benefits, providing subsidies for the purchase of EVs and encouraging employees to switch to electric vehicles.

We will hold illumination events and other events powered by fuel cell vehicles such as EVs and hydrogen vehicles. We aim to raise environmental awareness by holding these events.

Riviera Country Club in the United States is working with the City of Los Angeles to begin flood control work to restore a stream.
It is being restored to its natural state, where water from the Santa Monica Valley flows into the ocean.

To ensure safety on public roads and in parks and to preserve the scenery, we prune the trees twice a year and also plant, cultivate and manage the growth of young palm trees.

A shared bicycle system will be set up in the Kamakura/Shonan area to ease traffic congestion, and also to reduce exhaust gases emitted from automobiles.

In order to leave healthy oceans for the future, we propose "Blue Seafood," which prioritizes the selection of sustainable seafood, and offer it at events, restaurants, etc.
