In addition, certain JUN Group shops will be selling ecology-conscious items. Posters, flyers and POP advertisements at shops will promote and support "Earth Day Tokyo 2010."

*Green Electric Power
Green electric power is electricity generated from natural energy sources, such as wind and photovoltaic power generation. This electric power includes the value of electricity as energy itself and environmental added value (ecological value). It is the green electric power certificate system that has made it possible to separate this environmental added value from the electricity and sell it in the form of "certificates." Even without possessing power generation facilities, you are able to use green electric power easily just by purchasing "ecological value" = green electric power certificate. In addition, the money spent to purchase these certificates goes to power stations using natural energy sources, thereby making it possible for them to continue power generation that will help the global environment and our futures hereafter.
