Commenting on the sponsorship, Svend Olling, Head of Department at the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said: “In meeting our criteria, Honda has been selected as official sponsor of vehicles for the COP15 Climate Conference. Not only does the sponsorship enable us to lower emissions from the conference itself, but the vehicles also demonstrate technology, which already today can help us in our efforts to reduce CO2 emissions in the transportation sector.”
Yuishi Fukuda, President of Nordic Honda A.B. added: “Honda is proud to have been accepted by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs as an official sponsor of the COP15 Climate Conference. The vehicles on display will demonstrate Honda’s commitment to manufacturing products with the highest possible environmental performance, using production systems with the smallest environmental impact. “
In 2006 Honda became the first automobile manufacturer in the world to announce global per-unit CO2 reduction targets for both its products and production activities.
