Summary

Concern about global environmental problems such as global warming and acid rain led to the adoption of the Kyoto Protocol UNFCCC-COP3 in December 1997. In this protocol, Japan committed itself to reduce emissions of six key greenhouse gases by 6% before the period 2008-2012. Recent Research and Development (R&D) efforts on alternative heat and energy sources have focused on chemical heat storage/heat pump systems.
