AKS is a hair salon in Omotesando. They recently switched their cups from normal paper cups to cups made from Kanbatsu-trees (thinned trees, usually disposed. More about KANBATSU). Yu Imamura (photo above), in charge of beverage, decided to adopt this new cup last month. "Why not start doing something, when the cost is the same and it is better for the environment?" Using Kanbatsu trees for products will contribute to the healthy growth of Japanese forests. The impact may be small, but whatever small a change is a change. Visit AKS to experience how "same" the cup is with normal paper cups! AKS website (Japanese only)
