Smart Green Energy Waiting Room @ Taoyuan International Airport in Taiwan

As a true blood Singaporean, I have always been proud of our award-winning, world renowned Changi Airport, but there's one thing Taoyuan International Airport absolutely won over Singapore's crown jewel. 

Their numerous, numbering over 30, themed waiting rooms! 
And today, let's check out Smart Green Energy Waiting Room.

We all know the benefits of green energy, especially toward the environment and sources include geothermal (which Singapore is exploring), solar (we have always embarked on it), hydraulic power generation (sadly, not for Singapore).

Another untapped resource would be the fitness green power, given the global population of more than seven billion people! According to the above chart, a 30-minute exercise on the r-rider fitness machine by over 3.5 billion people can reduce seven nuclear power plants! 

Looking like the typical cross trainer fitness machine in your gym, you can give it a try to determine how much power and energy you can regenerate! Those looking for a short exercise can definitely check this out. 

Honestly, I wasn't that drawn to all the explanations. It's the seats that captivated me in this themed waiting room; they were in the design of the blades of a windmill! So reminded me of the Gaomei Turbine Avenue (高美風車大道) we went to just a day earlier.
