initiatives related to SDGs in a sustainable environment include
Climate Action: Japan may have policies and programs to address climate change, including the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation strategies to cope with changing climate conditions.
Smart Cities: Initiatives to create smart and sustainable cities might involve the integration of technology for efficient resource use, transportation, and urban planning.
Waste Management: Given Japan's focus on waste reduction and recycling, there could be initiatives to minimize waste generation, increase recycling rates, and promote a circular economy.
Environmental Education: Efforts to raise awareness about environmental issues and promote sustainable practices might include educational programs in schools and communities.
International Cooperation: Japan might be engaged in global partnerships and initiatives to address environmental challenges that extend beyond national borders.
Water Management: Sustainable water management practices, including conservation and pollution prevention, could be part of Japan's environmental initiatives.
Renewable Energy: Japan has been working on increasing the share of renewable energy in its energy mix. Efforts are made to invest in solar, wind, and other renewable sources to reduce reliance on traditional energy sources.
Definition
Chen Lyuling A179089
In Japan, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) related to a sustainable environment primarily focus on preserving biodiversity, promoting clean energy, ensuring sustainable water management, and addressing climate change. These goals align with Japan's commitment to balance economic development with environmental conservation for a more sustainable future.
HOW LI XINGYU A179038
Maintaining biological diversity and protecting the security of forests, oceans and other environments：To build national and local ecological reserves centred on nature reserves; to strengthen wildlife protection and countermeasures against exotic organisms; to regulate agricultural, forestry and fishery activities, to preserve the pristine appearance of deep forests and to reduce damage to the sea, and to achieve the sustainable use of natural resources.
Energy conservation, development of renewable energy, combating climate change and building a recycling-based society
Strengthen research and development to prevent environmental degradation before it occurs Apply scientific knowledge, science and technology to environmental protection and strengthen the scientific nature of decision-making. Focus on prevention and formulate policies and measures to prevent environmental degradation before it occurs.

Impact of natural disasters
Japan is located in a seismic zone and is often affected by natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis and typhoons. Disasters can cause large-scale casualties and property losses, and have long-term impacts on the economy and society
Population aging and population decline
Japan has one of the highest life expectancy rates in the world, while its fertility rate continues to be below the level needed to maintain population stability. Aging has tightened the labor market, increasing demand for health and elderly care services while reducing the tax base.
Energy dependence issues
Japan is the world's largest importer of liquefied natural gas and the second-largest importer of coal.
Dependence on energy imports makes Japan vulnerable to fluctuations in international markets, while nuclear safety issues have become particularly sensitive after the Fukushima nuclear accident.
Balancing economic growth and environmental sustainability
Japan needs to find a balance between pursuing economic growth and environmental protection. Traditional growth models can cause harm to the environment, while excessive environmental protection measures can limit economic activity.
urbanization issues
As the population concentrates in cities, urbanization has brought about a series of problems, such as housing shortage, traffic congestion and urban pollution. These problems can lead to reduced quality of life and social inequality.
