Tokyo - QNA
Japan's greenhouse gas emissions fell 3.0% in fiscal 2015 from a year earlier, declining for the second straight year, the Environment Ministry said in a preliminary report released Tuesday.
According to the Japan's (Kyodo) news agency, the fall was partly thanks to further reduction in power consumption at houses, offices and commercial facilities.
Japan's greenhouse gas emissions in fiscal 2015 were 5.2% below fiscal 2005 levels, meaning the country has already met its goal of a 3.8% cut by fiscal 2020.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris.

Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
