Features: Do you know how much trash your home generates in a week? Don't think that your home is clean and doesn't produce much trash—it's because your parents work hard every day to take the trash to the outdoor bins, or they conveniently drop recyclable items like milk cartons and plastic bottles into the recycling bins at the supermarket. It's their efforts that reduce the amount of trash at home. If you don't believe it, you can ask your mom not to throw away the recyclable trash, and soon enough, your room will turn into a landfill! Milk cartons, plastic bottles, instant noodle bowls, and juice boxes—you'll be amazed at how much trash accumulates. This is the "trash" problem. In modern society, the amount of trash is too high, and soon, the places for burying trash will be full; material resources will continue to dwindle. The Earth will perish due to trash—something must be done to find better solutions? This book is one of the "Handmade Craft Series," written and compiled by Kurosu Kazuki, a paper craft artist, doll maker, and the leader of the doll theater Manecco. The book teaches children how to create various eco-friendly toys using discarded items from their homes. The book is rich in content, illustrated with pictures, easy to understand, and serves as a great inspiration for raising children's environmental awareness and hands-on skills.
