Shinjiro Koizumi, Japan's environment minister, poses for a photograph in Tokyo, Japan, on Monday, July 13, 2020. Koizumi said in an interview that he wants Japan, the worlds fifth-biggest emitter, to aim for deeper cuts as part of its participation in the 2015 Paris Agreement. The nation has kept its emission goals unchanged since that year amid continued reliance on fossil fuels, partly due to public resistance to nuclear power after the 2011 Fukushima disaster.
