Green Lifestyle
MOTTAINAI: MOTTAINAI is a Japanese word that means “it is so wasteful that things are not made full use of their value”, or simply puts “it is too valuable to waste”. This term is used in Japanese daily life very frequently when thigs that are still useful and valuable are wasted. Japanese culture traditionally considers wasting resources and throwig them away before fully using them is a shameful act that profanes and disrespects our Creator of nature. MOTTAINAI reflects a sad feeling that things are lost and underappreciated, as well. (Ref: The Green Changemakers) We encourage you to be conscious about MOTTAINAI and take actions in manageable ways in your daily life when you encounter MOTTAINAI situations.
