Tokyo, with a population of 13 million and annual greenhouse gas emissions of 66 million tons, is not only the largest city in Japan but also accounts for a large part of Japan's yearly emissions. In the first section, after shortly introducing the Policy-Mix Framework, the criteria for an analysis of Tokyo's climate mitigation efforts will be explained, using a Policy-Mix approach. The criteria will be based on the instruments, the policy processes as well as the characteristics of the policy-mix. In the second section of the paper, this criteria will be used to analyse Tokyo's efforts toward climate mitigation, using empirical data. The analysis will be based on the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Climate Change Strategy from 2007 and the Cap-and-Trade program from 2010. Finally, the results will be summed up in this papers conclusion which will also show what the world can learn from Tokyo's efforts.
