Zero Waste Town Kamikatsu (2023x1)

:

This time, we visit Kamikatsu, Japan's first town dedicated to achieving zero waste, and see why it's gaining worldwide attention. One reason: its recycling system, in which waste is separated into 45 categories. 80% gets recycled, which reduces incineration. There's also a free used goods shop and more. These efforts have attracted young people and revitalized the town. Our host Alisa Evans visits to get a "zero waste" experience.
