Press Release

Since the 1990 Osaka Flower Expo, the significance of international horticultural expos has evolved substantially toward "coexistence with green spaces and nature to resolve global environmental challenges."
Since its founding, the JAL Group has aimed to realize a prosperous society by connecting people, regions, and the world through air travel. At the same time, we recognize the impact that our operations in the skies bring to the global environment, and we believe we have a responsibility to pass down a rich, vibrant Earth--essential for a sustainable society--to the next generation.
Under our new slogan "Soaring Together," established in March this year, we have systematized our environmental initiatives, expressing this commitment through the words: "Small Steps Toward a Brighter Future." We view our participation in GREEN×EXPO 2027 as a crucial step toward connecting a rich Earth to future generations, serving as a catalyst for action and change toward the future while contributing to the realization of a sustainable future society.

In 2024, the "Let's Fly with Used Cooking Oil®" project was launched to collect household used cooking oil and utilize it as raw material for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). Celebrating the project's two-year anniversary,collection box locations have expanded nationwide, currently supported by 111 local governments and 235 stores (*4).
During GREEN×EXPO 2027, under the slogan "Small Drops Toward a Brighter Future," a participatory campaign will be held where participants who bring household used cooking oil to designated collection hubs will receive perks such as miles or lottery entries.

Opportunities will be provided for children, who represent the next generation, to enjoy thinking about the skies of the future. By engaging with and reflecting on environmental issues through various entry points, the JAL Group aims to contribute to building a social foundation capable of taking action on environmental challenges in the future.
Specifically, JAL sponsors the elementary school idea contest "Mirai Action STATIONS" (*5), challenging students to think about actions for future skies centered around SAF. Visiting classes are also planned for target elementary schools.
