The Greens Japan (緑の党グリーンズジャパン, Midori no Tō Greens Japan, literally "green party Greens Japan") is an established national Green party in Japan.
After the electoral success of Green activist Ryuhei Kawada in the 2007 House of Councillors election, the local green political network Rainbow and Greens had reportedly decided to dissolve itself and merge with the Japan Greens in December 2007. The two precedent organizations dissolved themselves and relaunched as Greens Japan, a political organization in late 2008, under its former Japanese name, Midori no Mirai (みどりの未来 - "green future").
Representation
On the 22 of November, 2010 Kazumi Inamura became the first popularly elected Greens Japan Mayor, in the city of Amagasaki as well as the first popularly elected female mayor of the city with 54% of the vote.
Party Establishment
On 28 July 2012, the party was officially re-established under its new name by local assembly members and civic groups to run in the Upper House election. Two of the core policies of the party at launch were to reduce, and ultimately terminate Japan's nuclear power generation, and oppose the nation's entry into the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).
