This exhibit will look at recycling and sustainability in Japan and Hawai'i. The Japan portion of the exhibit will feature the work of renowned Hawai'i photographer Brian Y. Sato, who produced a photo essay of Japanese recycling and sustainability practices.

Sato's photographs, most of which were taken in the Kansai area, feature images of large municipal recycling centers in Kameoka, Kobe and Miyako, along with images of Japanese recycling bins, trash sorting, trash/recycling trucks, and other aspects illustrating Japan's longtime commitment to sustainable practices.

On the Hawai'i side, the recent resurgence of interest in recycling will be highlighted in displays of practices in the various counties throughout the Islands. The display will also include sustainable practices that have been part of local Japanese culture since the days of the issei (first-generation Japanese) in Hawai'i.
