Photography & Sustainability on Japan's Tropical Ogasawara Islands

In early spring 2024, Tom Miyagawa Coulton and I traveled on a 24h ferry from Tokyo to some of Japan's most remote and not well known tropical nature reserves called the Bonin or Ogasawara islands. YouTube video of this talk here

Tom is a talented photographer and is always a great collaborator on writing and consulting projects like this around Japan. Video here made by All About Japan of the trip focused on composting toilet sustainability in tourism initiatives.
