NTV Announces Programming & Events for Environmental Campaign 2010

Every year since 2003, NTV has engaged in an environmental campaign that has been conveyed through television programs, events and activities, all based on the theme of eco.
In this seventh year, NTV has teamed up with public broadcaster NHK to embark on a new movement with a renewed message of "making the future" through the three themes of learning, protecting and creating.

During Eco Week 2010, which will take place from May 30th through June 6th, NTV will broadcast various programs for viewers to reflect on what each individual can do to contribute to a hopeful future for the earth. In addition to the eight regular across-the-timetable programming of news and infotainment, a weeklong schedule of ecology-related content is planned.
