[Speaker] Yohei Kawada, Director of the Resource Circulation Promotion Office, Resource Circulation Division, Ministry of the Environment [Key Lecture Content] In Europe, a proposal for the ELV regulation has been made, which includes the mandatory minimum content of recycled plastics in automobiles. Building a recycled plastic market to support the stable production of our country's automobile industry is an urgent and important issue. Through initiatives for collaboration between industry and academia, the Ministry of the Environment has established a "Consortium for Building a Market for Recycled Materials for Automobiles" since last year, aimed at advancing the construction of a recycled plastic market. This lecture will introduce the initiatives of the consortium and the concept of a centralized hub for establishing a stable supply system for recycled plastics for automobiles. [Lecture Items] 1. Current status and "desired state" of recycled plastics for automobiles 2. Direction of discussions for the 2025 Industry-Academia-Government Consortium 3. Current situation analysis and BAU (Business As Usual) scenario 4. Towards the establishment of a supply system for recycled plastics for automobiles 5. Direction for appealing the value of recycled plastics for building the domestic market 6. Q&A / Business card exchange *The content of the lecture may change based on the latest trends.
