Another reason why I love Japan

You and me both. From what my environmental teacher told us, they have excellent trash management

It's true. Citizens very rarely litter and actually use the garbage cans even if they're kilometres away

Dude. There are no trash bins on the streets in Japan, BUT THE STREETS ARE CLEAN IT WAS CRAZY. The thing is, the bins are inside the stores (7-11 for example) Additionally, they put their trash bags in this metal cage so not only do the animals not get into it, it doesn't go everywhere and it's easy for the trash people to just empty it out.
