In the joint campaign, the two stations will work together to promote and raise awareness, including broadcasting videos using the same catchphrase and having announcers and weather forecasters from both stations appear on each other’s programs and media. Through this campaign, we will raise awareness among the people of Shizuoka Prefecture about the importance of climate change and encourage them to take concrete action.
