It is kind of sad how people can be so amazed of such things. "Vegan" leather is made mixing some kind of epoxy plastic to bind the mush together then further processed by adding vinyl layer on top of it. Whats vegan about that? A plastic item that cant be recycled and will break into microplastics after having a way lower life cycle than real leather.
I love this documentary about food waste there’s so much of it and these people are putting it to good use we need more of that type of thinking. Especially in United States where I live there’s so much waste. And I mean that in general we’re probably the most wasteful country in the world.This is such a good thing more of this needs to happen especially where I live. The US needs to get involved to help eliminate food waste which there is a tremendous amount of it. This is an alternative that needs to be emphasize and brought to everybody’s attention how important is to make use of waste and make it productive which is a win-win for everyone.
India also subsidises the installation of the biogas technology at home. i have a small version of what is shown in the video at my home. We use both the fertilizer in our garden and the methane gas to cook with.
In India those mangoes are sell and many people buy them because those mangoes are raw and not ready to eat. if you leave them for some time it can be eaten but making leather out of raw mango sounds like scam to me because most of the mangoes were raw.
Animals are important for the environment and I can't help but wonder if we could turn some of this in to animal feed or natural fertilizers to put the nutrients back in to the earth rather then adding extra chemicals

My country has a lot of biogas facilities but the problem is they mostly don't use waste, they grow corn only for that purpose and chop it up and i don't find it sustainable to take space from crops for eating and taking it to make gas, when you could use garden scraps from communities or local farmers and maybe restaurants and fast food chains in my region I'd say about 70 % (I'm only guessing here) of fields are used only for biogas production and that in my opinion defeats the purpose of being environmentally friendly and sustainable. I mean my town (3000 people including communities that are around us) we have 2 major biogas facilities...
I love the claims about the beef and dairy industry destroying the environment, then encourage commercial mango and avocado production. These two fruits are at the top of ecology destruction pyramid.
We make synthetic rubber sheets for footwear industry from wastage polyethylene and single use plastic bags. More than 570 metric ton of plastic bags are recycled in a year in our facilities located in Dhaka, Bangladesh. We plan to recycle 2000 metric ton single use plastic bags next year.

All they need to do is add bean puree to make the leather last longer if they are able to find a waste stock of beans I mean there beans I don't think it can be waste lol
its cool what they are doing, but all the products they make from recycling will eventually wind up in landfill. they get recycled once or twice, but will eventually wind up in a landfill or being burnt.
I get it but the whole "can this tiny new business with new ideals stand up against the larger traditional industry* especially for brand new stuff like this. they don't NEED to take over the market [while it would be nice] any difference [especially when the top 100 pollution creators are _companies_ ] is progress and saying stuff like this may discourage young creatures
We used to have milk delivered to our house from a local dairy in glass bottles that were returned and reused. We bought meat from a local butcher and it was wrapped in paper which is recyclable. We bought groceries and took them homes in paper sacks. All canned food was in tin which decomposes. Liquids were in glass bottles that were recyclable. It is the most recent last 3 generations that have caused pollution with plastics because they were misguided thinking plastic is recyclable. The problem is that very few people recycle. most all plastic is dumped at landfills even when you place it in a recycle bin. Stating methane from cows is causing climate change is the most ignorant thing I have heard. We need to remove ignorant people that believe this narrative. It is proven that growing plants and farming using pesticides and chemical fertilizers does more harm and kills more bees and animals than sustainable ranching of cattle and sheep. Grass fed cattle is mostly raised on land that is not suitable for farming. Videos like this are irresponsible and full of lies.
... methane from cows is contributing to climate change. it is true more recent generations have caused most of climate change, but we have had no other choice. if we were given more options, we would take them but it is very hard to be sustainable especially on low income. also, the food to feed cows uses heavy pesticides and fertilizers, which is another reason raising animals is bad for the environment (this applies to plant foods too, but plant foods are eaten directly instead of fed to a cow that eats a bunch of them to produce a small amount of food.)
Sort of related to this, but sometimes I hear of good food surplus that on occasion has to be destroyed for any manner or reasons… But if there’s something of a global food crisis going on these days (a good chunk of which is due to Ukraines recent woes and their status as one of the worlds largest suppliers of grains), wouldn’t it be better for nations WITH that much to spare to supply it to surrounding countries that are having trouble feeding their own mouths? Out of good will, building up good international relations and also a way to work off any monetary debts equal to the worth of the food distributed?
It is because we're talking about food here. Food can easily rot, unless genetically modified or you add preservatives. And even if you do add preservatives, you can only prolong its "consumable" life to a certain amount of time. Plus, does the benefit of sending it overseas overweighs the cost of doing so? How do you persuade leaders to take initiative in helping another country when they've got problems of their own? You're presenting an ideal solution but in reality, we have to consider the labor, time and effort. It will be hard to move without financial backing or without something in return because you won't able to sustain what you are doing (helping).
Goodwill is good in concept but not on paper. It will be tricky to make another agree based off on good will and building good international relations. Most help are transferred in monetary value because it's easier and practical, plus the receiver knows better what basic necessity (like food) do they need. It's not only a matter of oversupply but also a matter of what supply, how to maintain and stock the supply, and how to transfer that supply. Will you only give the excess of that supply? Will you not give when there is no oversupply then? Again, we're circling back to whether they'll agree with receiving supply because it can also affect their local supply. People can rely on the donated supply, and then the local market will have a hard time selling and earning.
@@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire Researching What type of agreement would render a yes on both sides What food the receiver commonly eats What food can the giver give and if the receiver is willing to accept that Are we talking about only goods here? Because mangoes in another country, may not be part of a "meal" For example, what will they be able to do with the mango? Do they have a dish where the mango is cooked? Because if the goal is to avoid hunger, then it would have to be a food that's considered filling to one's stomach. And then, there's the issue of how to properly distribute it to make sure everyone is accounted for. It takes hours to go from one city/town to another. There are too many things to resolve before it becomes feasible. You mentioned Ukraine, right? Poland was very helpful when the war broke. They supplied and accepted refugees. Poland is the first one to help because they're the neighboring country. Since they're close, it's obviously practical for them to do so. And they do have mixed history that make them close to each other in culture, so they're eager to help because there's that sense of brotherhood or sisterhood relationship. Maybe, this video's method is one of the most practical one at the moment. To turn wastes into something valuable, from places close in radius. Maybe we're thinking of the wrong solution to the problem if there are too many problems that exist within the solution.
@@cchaber1936 Well if there’s a food crisis large enough to warrant nations the world over to trade each other whatever food they can spare out of sheer desperation, I don’t think the average civilian is going to be so picky as to starve themselves if it meant other nations had to offer them food that might otherwise be foreign to them
Until there is a change in gas being more then bio then things won’t change maybe in years and years things will change, it will help wastage it will help out gas issues
The reason bio plastic is not big is because of cost. It is cheaper & quality is better with plastic made from oil than recycle plastic or bio plastic. Very little is recycle, maybe 5-10%. Most of it just goes to landfill.

On their website they say they use natural additives, so not plastic
@@couch_philosoph3325 what even is "natural". Crude oil is "natural" since it's made from nature. Anthrax is natural.
All they need to do is add bean puree to make the leather last longer if they are able to find a waste stock of beans I mean there beans I don't think it can be waste lol
It’s a wonder this isn’t on the science channel. Before fruit leather, we had Naugahyde !
It doesn't look like fruit leather is made with leftovers. Also, why don't exporters just stop over producing?
Methane digestors are worth it if you make it yourself.
Stuff like this is the equivalent of making wind chimes outta glass bottles. You're just prolonging the enviable
... inevitable?
Wow nice to see Westerners change the defination of waste
I got more info from your videos..thanks for sharing it
its cool what they are doing, but all the products they make from recycling will eventually wind up in landfill. they get recycled once or twice, but will eventually wind up in a landfill or being burnt.
Great great video.... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️
I love the idea using mango for materials but can it be called leather?
Meelangther
I get it but the whole "can this tiny new business with new ideals stand up against the larger traditional industry* especially for brand new stuff like this. they don't NEED to take over the market [while it would be nice] any difference [especially when the top 100 pollution creators are _companies_ ] is progress and saying stuff like this may discourage young creatures
wow food is "valueless" for these people
First world problems...
@@tattletalestrangler8084 yep
most of it wasn't food it was stuff you can't eat but for the mango one you're right.
Too bad those mangoes aren't eaten....many of them still look succulent and yummy....
We used to have milk delivered to our house from a local dairy in glass bottles that were returned and reused. We bought meat from a local butcher and it was wrapped in paper which is recyclable. We bought groceries and took them homes in paper sacks. All canned food was in tin which decomposes. Liquids were in glass bottles that were recyclable.
It is the most recent last 3 generations that have caused pollution with plastics because they were misguided thinking plastic is recyclable. The problem is that very few people recycle. most all plastic is dumped at landfills even when you place it in a recycle bin.
Stating methane from cows is causing climate change is the most ignorant thing I have heard. We need to remove ignorant people that believe this narrative. It is proven that growing plants and farming using pesticides and chemical fertilizers does more harm and kills more bees and animals than sustainable ranching of cattle and sheep. Grass fed cattle is mostly raised on land that is not suitable for farming. Videos like this are irresponsible and full of lies.
... methane from cows is contributing to climate change. it is true more recent generations have caused most of climate change, but we have had no other choice. if we were given more options, we would take them but it is very hard to be sustainable especially on low income. also, the food to feed cows uses heavy pesticides and fertilizers, which is another reason raising animals is bad for the environment (this applies to plant foods too, but plant foods are eaten directly instead of fed to a cow that eats a bunch of them to produce a small amount of food.)
so far i saw that they made eco friendly plates etc but they have em in a plastic bag ...
Luego nos preguntamos por qué la comida sube tanto de precio...
Sort of related to this, but sometimes I hear of good food surplus that on occasion has to be destroyed for any manner or reasons… But if there’s something of a global food crisis going on these days (a good chunk of which is due to Ukraines recent woes and their status as one of the worlds largest suppliers of grains), wouldn’t it be better for nations WITH that much to spare to supply it to surrounding countries that are having trouble feeding their own mouths? Out of good will, building up good international relations and also a way to work off any monetary debts equal to the worth of the food distributed?
It is because we're talking about food here. Food can easily rot, unless genetically modified or you add preservatives. And even if you do add preservatives, you can only prolong its "consumable" life to a certain amount of time.
Plus, does the benefit of sending it overseas overweighs the cost of doing so?
How do you persuade leaders to take initiative in helping another country when they've got problems of their own?
You're presenting an ideal solution but in reality, we have to consider the labor, time and effort. It will be hard to move without financial backing or without something in return because you won't able to sustain what you are doing (helping).
Goodwill is good in concept but not on paper.
It will be tricky to make another agree based off on good will and building good international relations.
Most help are transferred in monetary value because it's easier and practical, plus the receiver knows better what basic necessity (like food) do they need.
It's not only a matter of oversupply but also a matter of what supply, how to maintain and stock the supply, and how to transfer that supply. Will you only give the excess of that supply? Will you not give when there is no oversupply then?
Again, we're circling back to whether they'll agree with receiving supply because it can also affect their local supply. People can rely on the donated supply, and then the local market will have a hard time selling and earning.
@@cchaber1936
Ok so how would you reign this idea in to be practical enough to work, and when to implement it?
@@ButFirstHeLitItOnFire
Researching
What type of agreement would render a yes on both sides
What food the receiver commonly eats
What food can the giver give and if the receiver is willing to accept that
Are we talking about only goods here?
Because mangoes in another country, may not be part of a "meal"
For example, what will they be able to do with the mango? Do they have a dish where the mango is cooked?
Because if the goal is to avoid hunger, then it would have to be a food that's considered filling to one's stomach.
And then, there's the issue of how to properly distribute it to make sure everyone is accounted for. It takes hours to go from one city/town to another.
There are too many things to resolve before it becomes feasible.
You mentioned Ukraine, right? Poland was very helpful when the war broke. They supplied and accepted refugees. Poland is the first one to help because they're the neighboring country. Since they're close, it's obviously practical for them to do so. And they do have mixed history that make them close to each other in culture, so they're eager to help because there's that sense of brotherhood or sisterhood relationship.
Maybe, this video's method is one of the most practical one at the moment. To turn wastes into something valuable, from places close in radius.
Maybe we're thinking of the wrong solution to the problem if there are too many problems that exist within the solution.
@@cchaber1936
Well if there’s a food crisis large enough to warrant nations the world over to trade each other whatever food they can spare out of sheer desperation, I don’t think the average civilian is going to be so picky as to starve themselves if it meant other nations had to offer them food that might otherwise be foreign to them
Those pads with so many secret materials sounds like secret plastic in the pads
I rather do natural composting to grow vegetables and fruits than use chemical fertilizers. Mangoes are expensive in US.

Until there is a change in gas being more then bio then things won’t change maybe in years and years things will change, it will help wastage it will help out gas issues
In South India garments and saris are made of fine banana fibre.

God bless all vegan products 🐇
beautiful , innovative thinking .

to make a better place for you and for me .
I respect everyone who were involved in this Seriously the best piece that i ve ever seen on RUclips 💌 Hate off to well all 💟 love your videos
The reason bio plastic is not big is because of cost. It is cheaper & quality is better with plastic made from oil than recycle plastic or bio plastic. Very little is recycle, maybe 5-10%. Most of it just goes to landfill.
Do you know if bio plastic degrades quicker or any sort of positive with the plastic itself compared to regular plastic?
@@danielw.2554 it absolutely degrades quicker in a landfill, or in the environment, than regular plastic. thats one of its main benefits. and it degrades into bio friendly materials, not oil.
Look at all the food waste and there's so many people starving
Vegan Mango leather. What are the additives? Polymers? Will it decompose?
Brilliant & Beautiful.
I had a vegan leather wallet once. It was always empty, whining, and narcissistic
Did it change the weather and release bioweapons? LOL. You lost to these freaks.
Same mine also ignored and cared more about animals than the exploited human farm laborer.
