the world toward a better society.
Preserving the Environment
Satellite Tracking of Cranes Migration Routes
A conference to conclude the Ramsar Treaty - an international agreement regarding protecting
the world’s major wetland areas as habitat for waterfowl - was held in the city of Kushiro in
Hokkaido in June 1993. In commemoration, NEC has already embarked upon comprehensive
research programs into the migration routes and habitats of the crane. A reflection of our deep
concern for preserving the earth’s environment, we are the sole sponsors of this project, which
is being supported by the extensive “Computer and Communications Technology” amassed
over the years.
