Worldwide, new technologies are being developed to conserve global resources, and Japan's latest contribution is innovative methods for reducing the environmental burden of papermaking. We'll see a system already in use in offices, which - in a world first - turns used paper into new, erasing all the printing, and best of all requiring virtually no water. Another revolutionary paper technology uses limestone, a very common rock, as raw material. This gives a paper that's highly liquid- and tear-resistant, and can also replace plastic in many products.
