Citizens’ Awareness of Environmental Protection

Because Taiwan has the policy of bringing your own bags and levying money from using plastic bags. The Use of Shopping Bags

There are many old-clothes recycling boxes on the street and can give clothes to the orphanage in Taiwan. Question:How do people in Japan handle their old clothes? Old Clothing Recycle/reuse Habits

Though Taiwan has the promotion of bringing your own table set and do not use disposal chopsticks,but we do not force citizens to bring their own chopsticks. Bringing Dinner Set

People in Taiwan do not support the policy because it is inconvenient to carry out the policy. We think that people in Japan are too busy. The Reason of Opposing the Garbage Separation Policy
