I knew working in manufacturing, for example, had the risk of exposure to pollution, so I chose to join the insurance industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I have always been interested in environmental issues and continued to study independently after joining AIG. I was actively involved in charity work, organizing charity concerts to raise funds for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and applying for the Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers, etc. Unfortunately, I had less time for social activities as I became busier with my career.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One day, a colleague said, &#8220;To be a respectable member of society, you need to fulfill three responsibilities: to your family, your job, and society&#8221;. This made me realize that I may have done well in my career and family life but may have neglected my social responsibility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Around this time, I read <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Naomi Klein and was deeply moved. Since <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/350.org\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">350.org<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was mentioned in the book, I called the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/world.350.org\/ja\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">350 Japan<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> office and started volunteering in 2018. Later, when Shin Furuno, the director of 350 at that time, was appointed as the Asia Regional Director, I was encouraged to apply for the director position.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>You started as a volunteer and rose through the ranks to the director of 350 Japan!<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, but it was challenging because I lacked experience in the NGO sector. I thought I had read many books about climate change, but there was still a lot I needed to learn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What led you to focus specifically on climate change among other environmental issues?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;ve been concerned about climate change since <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Limits to Growth<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was published. When I worked in the insurance industry, I felt the impact of climate change in various ways. Fire insurance was historically considered a highly profitable product but was becoming less profitable towards the end of my career. Not only did natural disasters like floods and wind damage affect the company&#8217;s performance, but they also made me aware of climate change.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>So the impact of climate change was noticeable for people in the insurance industry at that time.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, but Japanese companies were very slow to respond. At the time, Japan&#8217;s insurers were focused on sales, operating under the mindset that more disasters meant more insurance sales. The sales divisions had power within these companies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In contrast, American companies, driven by profitability, took measures against climate change. I think this difference reflects the cultural gap between Japanese and American companies. Especially when it comes to matters like coal-fired power, public pressure is much stronger overseas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What do you think is the role financial institutions play in addressing climate change?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Japan faces a significant challenge with its high dependence on coal, the most GHG-intensive energy source. Many major Japanese banks have historical ties with energy companies, so they provide funding through loans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We believe that by pressuring banks to withdraw financial support from the fossil fuel industry, we can end fossil fuel-based power generation. Recently, we&#8217;ve started seeing some progress, with Japanese banks finally tightening their policies. I believe the combined pressure from grassroots movements and shareholder proposals made this possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How does the role of insurance companies differ from that of banks in tackling climate change?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I spent 42 years working in the insurance industry, but I wasn\u2019t fully aware of their involvement in climate change. It wasn\u2019t until I spoke with Peter Bosshard, the former Program Director of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/global.insure-our-future.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insure Our Future<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, that I realized the role they play.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Life insurance and non-life insurance differ in the roles they play. Life insurance, due to its significant assets, has the power to mitigate climate change through its investment choices. Non-life insurance companies may have a smaller influence as asset owners, but they possess a powerful tool: the ability to refuse to provide insurance. If they stop underwriting insurance for coal-fired power plants, those plants would be unable to operate, as companies wouldn\u2019t risk running them without coverage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, with the increase in natural disasters caused by climate change, non-life insurers face the risk of higher claims, leading to potential losses. This creates a strong incentive for them to take action against climate change to protect their profitability. I believe they should use their power to contribute to the phase-out of fossil fuels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s sad to see AIG score so poorly on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/global.insure-our-future.com\/scorecard\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insure Our Future\u2019s scorecard<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. I even emailed my former boss, the CEO of AIG at the time, urging him to stop providing insurance for Adani\u2019s coal mine in Australia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What do you think is needed to raise more awareness about the role of insurance companies in climate action in Japan?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Historically, Japanese people tend to view climate change as an \u201cunavoidable\u201d natural disaster. Japan has always had frequent natural disasters, so people are somewhat accustomed to accepting annual typhoons and such. The public is yet unaware that climate change is caused by human activity and can be solved by humans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 350 Japan, we offer programs to learn the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/350jp.org\/basic-class\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">basics of climate change<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to help people understand the issue. While some people have strong awareness and interest, I feel that overall awareness is still lacking in Japanese society. I hope the climate change classes will help more people get involved in climate change activism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What are your plans moving forward?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I will always stay involved in climate change activism. It\u2019s such a significant issue that we can\u2019t just turn a blind eye.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With that being said, the way I am involved may not stay the same. <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/350.org\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">350.org <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">was originally founded by American students and focuses on people in their late 20s to 50s, and I believe people in this age group should take leadership. I plan to step down from my full-time role* since I\u2019m turning 70 this year. There is a new cross-sectional NGO project launched, so I plan to stay active there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">*This information is as of the time of the interview.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taka, once an insurance executive at the global insurer, AIG, is now heading a shareholder advocacy organization working to accelerate the transition to net zero greenhouse gas emissions.
