2 1. Establishment a Sound Material- Cycle Society
3 Japan is Undertaking Transition to a Sound Material-Cycle Society Concept Sound Material-Cycle Society Minimize consumption natural resources 1st: Reduction Reduce waste, by-products, etc. Input Natural Resources 2nd: Reuse Use things repeatedly. Production (Manufacturing, Distribution, etc.) 3rd: Material Recycling Recycle things which cannot be reused. Consumption Treatment (Recycling, Incineration, etc.) Discarding 4th: Thermal Recycling Recover heat from things which cannot be recycled materially and which have no alternatives but incineration. Landfill Disposal 5th: Proper Disposal Dispose things which cannot be used by any means. If above-mentioned order seems not to contribute to reduction environmental load, exceptions are permitted so that different orders can be adopted. 1-1
4 Fundamental Law for Establishing a Sound Material-Cycle Society was enacted in May 2 in order to enable Japan to transit to a Sound Material-Cycle Society during 21st century. Sound Material-Cycle Society: A sound material-cycle society, in which consumption natural resources is minimized and environmental load is reduced as much as possible, is established by promoting reduction, reuse, recycling, heat recovery and appropriate disposal. Fundamental Law for Establishing a Sound Material-Cycle Society Purposes Law Set forth fundamental policies which facilitate a sound material-cycle society Articulate basic principles underlying such a society Clarify responsibilities stakeholders Establish a Basic Plan Basic principles Realize a society in which sustainable development is possible with less environmental impact Prioritize ways handling products, waste and recyclables Ensure appropriate material cycle in nature Responsible Bodies National government Citizens NGOs and NPOs Business organizations Local governments Fundamental Plan for Establishing a Sound Material-Cycle Society Key Features Reductions in generation waste Appropriate recycling and waste disposal Encouragement use recycled products and materials Assessment products and packaging with regard to 3Rs Implementation economic measures such as taxes and levies Establishing waste management facilities Education Facilitating activities non-governmental organizations Research and development International collaboration 1-2
