Model Yuko Ishida displays a 'solar-power generator bras' presented by lingerie maker Triumph International Japan Ltd. during a press unveiling in Tokyo Wednesday, May 14, 2008. The eco-green bras, made with high quality organic cotton that have met the international textile safety standard 'Eco-Tex,' generates electric power by a detachable solar panel so that the wearer can illuminate a compact electric indicator attached on the panel to with your message and use i-pods, cell phones and other electric gadgets on the beach without worrying batteries may run out. Also plastic pads are used not only as their primary purpose by adjusting their size by changing the volume of water but as drink containers to quench your thirst in the summer heat that would protect people from chucking plastic bottles away. This is the latest of Triumph's eco-friendly bras series to boost the public's awareness more on ecological issues prior to July 7-9 G8 Hokkaido Toyako summit in northern Japan, which is dubbed as 'environment summit' in the times of global warming.
