🇯🇵 JAPAN’S SIDEWALKS USE YOUR STEPS TO POWER THE CITY

In Tokyo, sidewalks are turning your every step into power using piezoelectric tiles: basically, high-tech flooring that steals energy from your feet.

At Shibuya Station, where 2.4 million people walk daily, each footstep generates 0.1 watt. 

No solar panels. No wind turbines. Just a lot of making sure no one walks home from work in vain.
