9、While he was in college in Virginia, he started Humanity Helping Sudan to raise awareness of the refugees. Today, Kher is the owner and founder of a coffee company called 734.

15、own in Japan, has shown the world that our garbage has far-reaching effects, and not just on our environment.The experiment in going zero-waste started when the town built a new incinerator 20 years ago. But almost immediately, the incinerator was determined to be a health risk due to the poisonous
16、gases when garbage was burned in it. It was too expensive to send waste to other towns, so locals had to come up with a new plan. Then the Zero Waste Academy was born, which helped perform this plan.Now Kamikatsu people separate their waste into 45 different categories. But in the beginning, it wasn
17、t easy to convince local people to do all this work, and there was some pushback. Only after that initial education period did most residents come on board.This is all great news for waste reduction of course, but it has also had some unexpected social benefits as well. Like much of Japan, Kamikatsu
18、s population is aging, and about 50 percent of the locals are elderly. The fact that the whole community takes their trash in to be recycled has created a local action and interaction between generations.That idea has been purposefully expanded to include a circular shop where household goods are dr

23、ifestyle.DSalad plants have already been grown in old shelters and tunnels. Urban farming is a regular topic of interest at places like the World Economic Forum(WEF) in Davos, where leaders consider whether the worlds food system, blamed for causing both obesity and malnutrition, can be fixed. There
24、 are already plenty of urban farming projects around the world, particularly in the US, Japan and the Netherlands, from urban fish and plant farms to vertical farming.“Its becoming an expanding industry,” said Richard Ballard, one of the founders of the farm Growing Underground. “Therere several oth
25、er businesses starting up in London in containers, and there are other vertical farms around the country now.”Growing Underground is not a standard farm. The rows of crops could be in almost any tunnel, but these plants are 100 feet below Clapham High Street and show that urban agriculture is, in so
26、me cases at least, not a fad. The underground farm has occupied a part of the Second World War air-raid shelters for nearly five years, and Ballard is planning to expand into the rest of the space later this year.Growing Underground supplies herb and salad mixes to grocery shops, supermarkets and re
27、staurants. Being in London creates an advantage, Ballard says, as they can harvest and deliver in an hour.He adds other advantages. Being underground means temperatures never go below 15 and surface greenhouses need to be heated. They can do more harvests: 60 crops a year, compared with about seven
28、in a traditional farm.
