※"recycle paper" can be served even on rainy days.
※From the viewpoint of promoting recycling, newspapers and magazines use paper strings and paper bags as much as possible to avoid mixing anything other than paper. If you do not have a paper string or paper bag at hand, tie it with a vinyl string.
