Japan will set its targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions by November after reviewing the current 25 percent reduction goal that the government has said is out of reach.
The timetable was announced today by Minister of the Environment Nobuteru Ishihara around the same time as Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said the review will take place. The current target covers the period from 1990 to 2020.
