Writer Jeremy shares his Experiences in Japan and Thoughts on Sustainability / Episode 05

In the latest episode from DCJ, my older brother Jeremy talks about his experiences in Japan; life as an expat in different countries; and how sustainability can be practiced in daily life, whether in Japan, Canada or beyond.  There are environmental issues that stretch across generations, and it's important to be aware and to talk about issues that affect us all.  
Intergenerational equity, championed by the likes of Greta Thunberg, is the notion of fairness and justice across generations; that all generations should have equal opportunity to access and benefit from Earth's resources.  What we do in our lifetimes will have consequences for our children's lives, and the continued depletion of resources will become a burden for future generations.
Jeremy's connection with Japan began many decades ago, as he studied Japanese in high school, lived in Sendai for 2 years; and has often traveled to Japan for work and pleasure.  He gives suggestions of how we can be more aware of our actions in our daily lives in order to be more in tune with the environment.
