Upcoming Online Seminar on Nature-Positive Strategies

Yachiyo Engineering Co., Ltd. is hosting a free online seminar titled "A Must-Attend for Companies Struggling with TNFD Disclosure: Utilizing LCA for Nature-Positive Strategies" on March 26, 2026. This seminar aims to shed light on how corporate sustainability professionals can effectively adopt Nature-Positive strategies in light of the new guidelines from the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD).

Understanding TNFD and Its Impacts

As businesses move beyond merely addressing climate change, TNFD requires them to disclose not just their climate-related risks but also their nature-related risks and opportunities. Many companies in Japan are currently reporting in compliance with TNFD; however, as stakeholders increasingly demand more detailed disclosures, companies are facing challenges in evaluating these requirements effectively. The main question many companies ask is: "Where should we start?"

To answer this, holistic approaches are necessary, particularly by quantifying reliance on natural resources across various operations and materials, which can help in formulating effective policies. In this seminar, we will discuss Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as one of the quantitative tools effective for strategizing Nature-Positive approaches. With LCA, businesses can identify the processes and materials within their value chain that have the most significant impact in terms of energy consumption, water usage, and biodiversity effects.

What Attendees Will Learn

The seminar will cover LCA fundamentals and its application to TNFD considerations, along with case studies demonstrating effective strategies. It is highly recommended for:

• - Sustainability professionals seeking to enhance their corporate strategy.
• - Individuals and departments unsure about how to begin tackling sustainability initiatives.
• - Companies that have already disclosed TNFD but wish to deepen their understanding.
• - Stakeholders looking to establish or refine their environmental policies and strategies.
