Kher lived in a refugee camp in Ethiopias
17、 Gambella region for-13 years. When he was 16, Kher came to America: While he was in college in Virginia, he started Humanity Helping Sudan to raise awareness of the refugees.

18、. The coffee companys name is meaningful.

But almost immediately, t
24、he 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
25、 their waste into 45 different categories. But in the beginning, it wasnt easy to convince local people to do all this work, and there was some pushback.

26、d some unexpected social benefits as well. Like much of Japan, Kamikatsus 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 purpo
27、sefully 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 social
