Recycled Human Hair Is Cleaning Belgian Water
Imagine if the hair caught in your drain could actually help to clean it.

That's what's happening in Belgium, where human hair is being recycled to help clean the country's water.

Around the country, hairdressers are taking the hair they cut from their customers' heads and putting it into bags. These bags of hair are then collected by a non-profit organization that runs a project called "Hair Recycle."

The hair collected by Hair Recycle is put through a machine and made into 60-centimeter-wide square mats. These mats can then be put into a drain to absorb oil and other pollution before it gets into a river or stream.

According to the Hair Recycle website, 1 kilogram of hair can absorb up to 8 liters of oil.

To take part in the project, hair salons have to pay a small fee. They then receive bags to collect the hair, and a sticker for their window, so they can show their customers that they are helping the environment.

Salons in Luxembourg and the Netherlands are also taking part in the Hair Recycle project.

Belgium's Hair Recycle is not the only hair recycling project, however. In the UK and Ireland, a company called Green Salon Collective is recycling hair and other waste from salons, including metal, paper, plastic and chemicals.

And a similar company called Green Circle Salons is recycling hair and other salon waste in the US and Canada.

So maybe hair in the drain can be a good thing?

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日は、文法シリーズはちょっとお休みします。
今日はぼくの話をします。

ぼくは今、北海道に住んでいます。
そして、10月からは妻と2人で海外に行く予定です。

その準備のために、1度大阪の実家へ引越をします。
引越、というよりも家具や荷物をほとんどなくして大阪へ行きます。

今は、北海道でいらないものといるものを分けています。
いらないものは、あげるか、売るかを決めます。
いるものは、ぼくの実家か、奥さんの実家に送ります。
ほとんどないんですが。少しだけ。

売るのは、リサイクルショップに持って行ったり、フリマアプリを使ったりしています。

あと3週間とちょっとでほとんどの持ち物を手放すので、大変です。ですが、はじめての感覚でちょっと気持ちいいです。


それから、ぼくの家ではネコを飼っています。
そのネコは先週、大阪の実家に連れて行きました。
はじめは少し落ち着かない感じでしたが、今はだいぶ落ち着いてきました。北海道の家にいた時と同じような感じで、よく寝てます。

という感じで、今月は引越の準備だったり、北海道を最後に満喫したりと忙しいです。

ですが、もちろん、いつも通りオンラインレッスンもしてます。

ぼくと話したいと思った方はぜひオンラインレッスン予約してくださいね！

お待ちしています！


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
