"
In Japan, people love paper.
Even in 2016, when I first moved to Tokyo to work at the headquarters of a
Japanese company, the addiction to processed sheets of pulped wood felt quaint
to me.
This country is renowned for the Shinkansen, possibly the world's best
high-speed rail network that snakes through the Japanese archipelago. It's also
home to many high-tech manufacturing firms — companies that gave the world
Toyota, Sony, Nikon, and Nintendo — amongst others.
Yet, for some particular reason, when it came to the ancient technology of
paper, the Japanese just weren't about to give it up."
