It seems Anime wants to save Earth from Global Warming…

Towering over Wakasu Kaihin Park in Tokyo’s Koto ward is one of the largest wind turbines in Japan, a 100 meter (330 ft) tall power generator built by Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries (IHI) in 2004, which outputs 1,950 kilowatts of electricity and is adorned with images of Astro Boy, Phoenix, Black Jack, Sharaku (the Three-eyed One), Unico and other Osamu Tezuka manga characters.

I am sure Ozamu Tezuka must be proud somewhere…in the wind.
