With an estimated 41 million people visiting it every day, PornHub figured it might be time to channel all that furious fapping into something more useful than brief, boredom-relieving ecstasy.
“Every day, millions of hours of adult content are consumed online, wasting energy in the process and hurting the environment,” the porn site writes on a dedicated website.
“At Pornhub we decided to do something about it. Introducing The Wankband: The first wearable tech that allows you to love the planet by loving yourself.”
The band creates power when moved in an up and down motion, with a kinetic charger inside storing the clean (albeit slightly dirty) energy generated.
It can then be connected via USB to smartphones, tablets and computers, powering them with 100% sustainable energy.
This is not the first time the site has dipped into conservation in a bid to clean up its reputation, having previously promised to plant a new tree for every 100 videos watched on its site.
PornHub is trying to de-stigmatise the viewing of pornography, and recently started advertising out in the real world using SFW billboards.
