Town in Japan uses 34 DIFFERENT recycle bins to achieve ZERO waste!

Zero Wasters Dream! 

 This is the most comprehensive zero waste effort we have come across: a whole town in Japan that generates NO garbage.   ;D


 In Kamikatsu Japan residents must compost all their own organic waste, there are no collection bins.

 But this is the real game changer: the town has a sorting center with 34 different categories to deposit your non-organic waste! A bin for razors, a bin for batteries, a bin for bottle caps, a mountain of neatly stacked newspapers and more.

 Remember: garbage is a new thing. A few hundred years ago, every place, although not necessarily sanitary, was more or less "zero waste".
