The Japanese government established the eco-towns to counter the then-pervasive problem of waste management and to stimulate domestic growth in a sustainable manner that would not prove harmful to the environment. 6
Basic aims of zero waste The reduction of waste produced, including greenhouse gases, to nearly zero; The promotion of energy-saving measures; and close collaboration between different industries and administrative districts. The facets of zero emissions that are incorporated into the eco-town concept include environmental management, resource recycling and urban planning, all of which can be carried out thanks to synergies between the aforementioned collaborative parties.
Focus of Existing Ecotown Environmentally friendly technologies and methods such as integrated waste management, the 3R methods (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle), industrial ecology, green consumerism and energy conservation; location in and/or close linkages with a large and growing eco-business market that is well developed domestically and extends internationally; A strong focus on research and development that extends to both public and private sectors, and which is focused on crafting cutting-edge solutions for environmental problems; and the abiding interest of both local and national governmental bodies to craft policy in support of these initiatives
