So I went to Kobe on the Shinkansen. As I got off the train, there was a huge commotion - a bunch of security guys and Asian boys with blonde hair rushed by me to meet a cheering crowd. It turns out that one of the most famous K-pop bands was on my same train - Stray Kids

This campaign is asking citizens to do the work of removing the caps and labels to put them in the other plastics classification.

While there are way too many single-use plastic items, every little bit counts.

Many of the heavily damaged structures in the Ishikawa earthquake were of these traditional wood homes with heavy ceramic tile roofing. The tiles will last for lifetimes, but their immense weight is too much for the aged wood structures to bear when stressed with a large earthquake.
