I was pretty confused about what to do at one point. I bought a water from a 7/11 while walking around in Tokyo and didn’t know what to do until an old lady it a subway market (also kind of wild) took it, washed it, and put it in her backpack when I gestured for the trash.
Maybe Japan could just, you know, erect public trash cans like so many other countries.
To shit in?
They haven’t since the sarin gas attacks when the gas bombs went off in trash cans.
Some people think the cost savings of installation, maintenance, and salaries are the reason they’'ve not returned
Yeah. So? Most reactions to terror attacks are very irrational. This is among them.
We don’t have bins in lots of train stations here for similar reasons. Doesn’t mean people are shitting on the fucking ground to make up for it.

Trash cans against littering, public restrooms to relieve themselves.
Not really too hard of a concept to grasp.
Edit: changed my mind. While I don’t agree. This is not a bad idea.
I was amazed there weren’t public trash receptacles when I was there (I was only there for a couple days though, maybe I just missed it).
You didn’t. Japan doesn’t have public trash cans.

I always had a backpack with me so I kept trash in that and put it in hotel bin when I went back to hotel.
Smart. I stopped there at the end of the trip, and I figured Japan would be the least of my worries, so I was under prepared for this issue.
I’m not sure you solved the problem here?
Which part of littering wouldn’t be solved by trash cans?
