\nThe Baywatch of Japan portrays a green image as it is reported that Regional Japan Coast Guard offices are resorting to life-saving jackets recycled out of discarded plastic bottles. Along with being easy on environment, such eco-friendly vests are undemanding on the economy too. While the traditional life saver can run up to \u00a55,000 ($55) – \u00a520,000 ($220), this recycled one costs \u00a5200 ($2). The Takamatsu Coast Guard Office has placed these lifesavers at three breakwaters in Kagawa Prefecture popular for fishing.<\/p>\n
