We wanted to use these initiatives as an opportunity for children to look ahead to the future and think “what I can do” to address environmental issues. With these in mind, in 2021, “Recycling Ceremony of Presenting Used Coffee Grounds for Compost” and “Special Class on SDGs” were held at Toyotomi Elementary and Junior High School in Himeji City, selected as SDGs Future City*.
