Kamikatsu , Japan , is the first zero -waste town in the world, with a recycling rate of 81% .
Japan is a global leader in recycling, with an impressive 86% and 70% of plastic bottles recycled.
The town's transformation took years , beginning in 1991 when officials first tackled food waste by providing composters to every household.
Kamikatsu Zero Waste Center is shaped in a giant question mark, urging people to ask why they must spend money on something.
Places like The Refill Shoppe, Common Good and Clean Cult offer green alternatives to single-use cleaning solutions and soaps.
Ask yourself: Do I really need to throw away that jar, or could it become a treasured container?.
