The Green Man has a solar panel in its base, so it's charged by being placed upside down. To boot, it's made of [bio-plastic corn and bamboo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paardarshi) -- a Green Man in all sense of the word! This waterproof lantern is perfect for a kid's room, but unfortunately, it's still in a prototype stage. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 15% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Cordless Lighting:** Opportunity for developing innovative and eco-friendly cordless lighting solutions. - **Solar-powered Lighting:** Disruptive innovation potential in creating solar-powered lighting products for various applications. - **Sustainable Materials:** Growing demand for products made from bio-plastic and bamboo presents opportunities for sustainable material innovation. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Lighting Industry:** Opportunity for companies to develop new cordless lighting products using eco-friendly materials and solar power. - **Home Decor Industry:** Disruptive potential in creating sustainable and eco-friendly lighting solutions for home decor purposes. - **Toy Industry:** Innovative cordless lighting products can be developed for children's rooms, adding a playful and eco-friendly element to toys. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Modernized Lantern Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ambientec-madco.md) - [Mood-Setting Adventurous Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guidelight.md) - [Ecological Dual Lampshade Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-light.md) - [Sustainable Light Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/geolectric-lantern.md) - [Glowing Organic-Waste Sustainable Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lanova-terra.md) - [Sustainable Solar Portable Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iggy-lamp.md) - [Glowing Power-Free Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nisshoku.md) - [Naturalistic Biophilic Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bioo-lamp.md) - [Sunlight-Mimicking Panelled Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunne-lamp.md)
