Kamikatsu, a small town in Japan, has shown the world that our garbage has far-reaching effects, and not just
on our environment.
Theexperiment in going zero waste started when the town built a new incinerator 20 years ago. But almost
immediately, the incinerator was determined to be a health risk due to the poisonous gases when garbage was
burned in it. It was too expensive to send waste to other towns, so locals had to come up with a new plan. Then
the Zero Waste Academy was born, which helped perform this plan.
Now Kamikatsu people separate their waste into 45 different categories. But in the beginning, it wasn't easy
to convince local people to do all this work, and there was somepushback. Only after that initial education period
did most residents come on board.
This is all great news for waste reduction of course, but it has also had some unexpected social benefits as
well. Like much of Japan, Kamikatsu's population is aging, and about 50 percent of the locals are elderly. The fact
that the whole community takes their trash in to be recycled has created a local action and interaction between
generations.
That idea has been purposefully expanded to include a circular shop where household goods are dropped off
and others can take them, and a tableware "library" where people can borrow extra cups, glasses, silverware and
plates for celebrations.
"The elderly see this not as a waste-collection service, but an opportunity to socialize with the younger
generation and to chat. When we visit them, they prepare lots of food and we stay with them for a while, we ask
how they are," Sakano, the founder of the Zero Waste Academy, said. Sakano's ideas are truly revolutionary if you think about it. She's proving that community can be found
through handling the stuff we no longer want and need.
4. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 2?
A. What harmful effects garbage burning has.
B. Why garbage sorting is necessary in Japan.
C. How the idea of zero waste was put forward.
D. What the Zero Waste Academy functions as.
5. What does the underlined word "pushback" probably mean?
A. Inactive response. B. Generous reward.
C. Bitter suffering. D. Beneficial guidance.
6. What is a bonus of the zero waste project?
A. Reducing waste. B. Creating community.
