Some random bits about Japan: Litter bins were removed from public spaces after the 1995 sarin attacks. Litter has actually been a notorious problem in natural preserves. There was an account of hiking up Mount Fuji by some famous travel writer, who went on about the great deal of rubbish strewn all the way up. Litter is less common in urban areas because there is less opportunity for it. When you see litter, what does it consist of? It's mostly the remains of food packaging. Japanese rarely eat away from designated eating areas. You don't see people snacking while walking down the street.
