NTT DoCoMo is putting up a FOMA antenna with a difference in the depths of Chiba prefecture. Built entirely from recyclable or reusable materials, it relies on solar and wind power and is cooled by a heat exchanger that doesn't put out any carbon dioxide. The area around the so-called EcoTower is paved with recycled tiles instead of asphalt or concrete.
DoCoMo already has a few of these towers up for its 2G service, but this marks the first 3G version. We assume that playing up its eco-friendliness is partly an attempt by to mollify rural residents who've been vocally opposing cellphone antennas recently, though unfortunately it's still going to put out those waves that everyone worries about.
