1. U.S. Rejoins the Paris Agreement
This January, almost immediately after Joseph Biden was inaugurated as the 46th U.S. president, he signed an executive order to rejoin the international Paris Agreement on climate change that the previous Trump administration had withdrawn from. The United States, which six years ago had taken a leadership role in brokering the agreement to combat climate change, was now rejoining it. With this move, expectations for worldwide progress on measures to cut greenhouse gas emissions are rising.

2. Air Purification Technology - UV-C LED Attracts Attention
According to Fuji Keizai, the global UV-C light source market for sterilization of airborne and adhered viruses in 2020 is estimated at ¥22.6 billion (US$ 214 million). This is 7.5 times the market size of ¥3 billion (US$ 28.5 million) in 2019, when there was limited demand for UV-C used for airborne and adhered virus sterilization. Mercury lamps have been the mainstream light source for UV-C. However, since mercury has an adverse effect on the human body and the environment, a shift to light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that efficiently generate UV-C without using mercury is currently progressing.
