Ministry considers emission curbs on traffic magnets
The Environment Ministry is considering requiring measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions for large-scale projects such as building shopping centers in suburban areas that lead to a sharp increase in road traffic, ministry sources said Sunday. Aimed especially at reducing the rising emissions in the transportation sector, the ministry wants to include the provision in a bill it plans to submit during the ongoing Diet session to revise the law on promoting measures to deal with global warming, the sources said.
