In Japan, the use of\u00a0<em>waribashi<\/em>\u00a0is so prevalent that a whopping 24 billion pairs of single use chopsticks were being disposed of every year according to the government\u2019s forestry agency. Unfortunately, their environmental impact doesn\u2019t stop there \u2013 97% of Japan\u2019s <em>waribashi<\/em> are imported, mainly from China. Many restaurants and convenience stores are introducing reusable chopsticks, but there&#8217;s still a long way to go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>InsideJapan Tours recommends<\/strong> buying your own pair of reusable <em>hashi<\/em> or chopsticks to use in restaurant where waribashi are the only option. As well as curbing unnecessary waste, you&#8217;ll have a useful (and often beautiful) souvenir to take home! Ask your InsideJapan travel consultant for their recommendations on the best places to buy them.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Use public transport<\/h2>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-half-width wp-image-5253\" src=\"https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-720x540.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-720x540.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-390x293.jpg 390w, https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-780x585.jpg 780w, https:\/\/www.insidejapantours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/shinkansen-900x675.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/h2>\n<p>No Japan adventure would be complete without a ride on a high-speed <em>shinkansen<\/em>\u00a0(bullet train). Japan&#8217;s public transport system is famous for being amongst the best in the world; in fact, train operator JR West made a formal apology for leaving a station 25 seconds early (something British trains have never had an issue with, more&#8217;s the pity\u2026). Why take domestic flights when you can see Mount Fuji out of your train window?<\/p>\n<p><strong>InsideJapan Tours recommends<\/strong> taking trains, buses and walks rather than planes and taxis. Not only does it lower your environmental impact, but you have the chance to escape the tourist bubble to travel as the locals do &#8211; a big part of the adventure.\u00a0All of our tours use public transport wherever possible.<\/p>\n<h2>3.
