Business efficiency can sometimes be the easiest way of being eco-friendly. A large example can be McDonalds, famous for cutting down their cost and increasing profitability by reducing the amount of packaging.
A smaller, but effective effort can be made in local family businesses too. The poster was put up at a local cleaning store in Kunitachi.
1. If you pick up your finished laundry within two days, you get 5% discount.
2. If you give back the hangers, you recieve a 50 yen ticket.
3. If you use your own eco-bag to take home laundry, you recieve a 10 yen ticket.
Each one is a win-win solution for the customer, the store and the Earth. It is not just an economic insentive for the customers, it will also be a reminder to pick up your important clothes to wear to the next party, save place in your closet, and reduce the amount of trash.
Please post up if you found other interesting ideas from local businesses!
