Why Japan = ECOLOGY?

Up till the last few years, food and art were the main theme of small business transplants. However we predict that the next topic will be environmental business.

Ecology level of Japan is quite high. Not to mention technology itself, based on the bitter experience of oil shock in the 1970s and industrial pollution during the rapid growth period, cultural background also plays a big role.
  
The spirit of SADO (tea), KADO (flower arrangement), KIMONO, UTA (poems) and so many other cultural activities are all about harmony with nature. A backbone underlying many Japanese products and services.
