Used bras recycled into fuel in Japan - Technology - GMA News Online - Latest Philippine News

Used bras recycled into fuel in Japan - Technology - GMA News Online - Latest Philippine News: "Women in Japan are being encouraged to donate their used brassieres to be recycled as solid fuel for industrial use.

Japan Times cited a Kyodo News report where major underwear makers in Japan are taking part in the effort to recycle bras and give women a chance to donate their old undergarments to a good cause.

The move is expected to raise Japanese firms' profiles as environmentally conscious companies.

However, Japan Times noted that many women were not comfortable in throwing out their underwear which they fear could be stolen by perverts because many areas in Japan require residents to put their garbage in clear plastic bags.
