This website promotes sustainable living in Japan, but I don’t want this website to be all about buying sustainable products. I want to go beyond that. I want to fundamentally change our lifestyle to align with preserving the planet resources.
Japan is split between modernity and tradition. We have a tradition of utilizing intelligently and appreciating the small limited resources available to us. We also have developed into a modern and rich society with abundance and consumerist mindset. Today, it’s hard for us to abandon the practical and exciting consumerist lifestyle. I want to dig deeper and find alternatives.
This site currently generates revenue through affiliates from Rakuten, Amazon, and Yahoo Shopping, available only for people living in Japan. I want to keep providing free contents, but feel frustrated that the only model available for us is through intensive advertising.
It is my wish to make this place free from intensive advertisement.
