Fostering a forest that produces less pollen: The Forest of Mitsubishi HC Capital Group

Since fiscal 2019, we have been participating in a project led by the Tokyo Development Foundation for Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries to foster forests that produce less pollen through corporate partnerships. This project aims to gradually replace varieties of Japanese cedar and cypress that release a great deal of airborne pollen with varieties of cedar and other trees that produce less pollen in the man-made forests of Tokyo’s Tama region.
