Bring your own ...

A while back I came across a posting on a website from a gentleman in Toronto who was interested in reducing the number of disposable chopsticks that get used in Chinese, Japanese, Korean and other asian restaurants. I thought it was a great idea, but didn't give it much thought after that. Just today though, I came across this article about a movement in China and Japan towards reducing the number of disposable chopsticks used in the respective countries. It would make sense that these countries would lead the transition away from disposable, but I would suspect a sustainability loving city like Vancouver won't be too far behind.
