Four Futures Japan


The Four Futures Tokyo installation is an immersive, science-led experience guided by EY Experts on climate change and sustainability, hosted by EY Tokyo office and supported by global colleagues in March 2025. 


In Brief

  • Introduced at COP 28 and now featured in Tokyo in March 2025, Four Futures is an immersive, science-led experience hosted by EY Tokyo office, whereby our Experts on climate change and sustainability guide participants through sustainability scenarios and explore potential outcomes for communities, businesses, and policymakers. 
  • Four Futures consists of a two-part experience, starting with a virtual trip into the four plausible futures, followed by a discussion where participants can explore transformative ideas together and create momentum for action in their organizations. 
  • The experience connects climate information to real-life impacts by using storytelling and tapping into emotions, all grounded in science, data, and technology. This enables participants to understand how our present actions can shape the future and aims to inspire courageous and innovative thinking for a better future. 


Four Futures Japan  was held from March 18th to March 21st , holding sessions for more than 300 participants from over 70 organizations and institutions.

PARTICIPANTS’ VOICES

  • I was able to experience the scenario of climate change through images and sound, and was strongly impressed by the heightened sense of realism and crisis.
  • I felt that the contents of this presentation were effective as a means of communicating a theme such as climate change, which is difficult to feel. I also got some useful hints for corporate communication.
  • The video and audio presentation helped us to deepen our understanding of a topic that we often deal with in writing in our daily work, in a way that also appeals to our emotions.
  • Among the many environment-related events, this event was particularly stimulating, and I gained a lot of insight.
