How Three Siblings Turned 2,000 Tons Of River Trash Into Sandals And Furniture | World Wide Waste
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- Indonesia ranks as one of the world's biggest contributors to ocean plastics, many of which come from rivers. The local nonprofit Sungai Watch saves about 3 metric tons of trash from entering the ocean every day with simple barriers and manual labor. We visited the island of Bali to meet the three young siblings behind the nonprofit and learn why a tropical paradise has a huge trash problem.

The Sibling Trio Turning Bali's River Trash Into Sandals And Furniture | World Wide Waste
3 HOURS?!? WOW! All that garbage saved from the open ocean 2 TONS in a little over a dinner & movie. That’s incredible. Thank you!
That is what I said. TEAM work!!!!
God bless you, God is watching , you are Angels, doing the Lords work! Each person is responsible for their own garbage! 🕊🙏❤️🙏🕊
Sungai Watch cleaned one part of one river in 3 hours. It takes The Ocean Cleanup longer to collect their large bag of garbage. Have a look at their videos too!
This is what I call great content. Those siblings really showcased the power of innovation in sustainability.
We need more people like this, not more useless social media "influencers"
We need real , competent, GOVERMENTS!!!!
@@user-sk3zi6mr2w competent governments are a big ask.
@@user-sk3zi6mr2wBut the government is a representation of the people who lives there.
Exactly
These siblings and their team are awesome. At least they are doing something, not just talking about it
When I was in Bali in 2007, a woman was dumping foam pear-protecting sheaths into the storm drain. I said "You know that drains to the ocean, yes". "Yes, I know!" she replied with a smile. A few days later I was on a ferry to Lombok. A father with his young kids were picking aluminum and plastic out of the garbage cans. "Recycling!" I thought. "What a good father!". Then I watched him throw the bottles and cans overboard, just so his small children could watch them float away. There is no fixing this without fixing the culture.
I'm glad I dont live in a 3rd world country 🤷🏻♂️
@@Kaotik199O Unless we solve problems like this we all live in a third world country, yours just has the money to send the trash away or hide it better
@@Kaotik199Onot all third world is bad alot of them you would live better there than a first world

30 years ago Bali was one of the most beautiful place I'd ever seen (I live in New Zealand so that's saying a lot). It's heartbreaking to see it used as a tip. Thank-you to the wonderful people restoring the beauty of the land and rivers. You are doing the angel's work.
As much as this cleans the look of Bali, sadly Indonesia is polluted to hell with fossil burning and gold extraction with mercury. It's sad to see as it's a tropical paradise drowning in pollution
used as a tip? what does that mean?
Rubbish tip (dump)
To many turis
@techhit2132 oooh haha I see. I've never heard that before. We just call it the dump in the Midwest.
Respect to such individual heros for fighting and making the world a much better place to live in.
I studied industrial design and engineering specialising in innovation and there was a total of about 20 minutes on 'Cradle to grave' design, which means to know where it goes in the end so you design with that in mind, universities and schools NEED to embed this thought process throughout teaching anything in relation to product creation, it is not the individual who buys the products whole responsibility, it is totally on the designers and companies who ignore the end of their products life.
Arguably it is also on government for failing to regulate and society as a whole for bad habits and resistance to needed change.
It does not matter what you design if one upper management member will say use the cheaper shitty material because it brings more profit. They will do that and than that is it, off it goes to the landfill.
@@sipati2 However, if designers shift away from using plastic in their designs, the designs presented to management will feature fewer plastic options. Instead, they will include more efficient designs that save money through better shapes causing better transport costs (for example), making plastic no longer the cheaper option.
You studied design AND engineering?
What tape of engineering and where?
@@BlueFlash215 at university, design and engineering
When we´re going to Bali next year we want to visit this project and help cleaning up. I love their work and what they do to make the world a little bit less polluted.
Such remarkable and inspiring young men, cleaning the rivers and making the earth cleaner!!!
Can't believe how polluted Bali's waters became. So great to see this organisation's work. The great Ocean clean up is a fantastic initiative. Hopefully we learn from our mistakes.
I have so much respect for your initiative and your spirit. The work you do is AWESOME. Thank you 😌.
These are utter heroes, thank you, thank you, thank you
Good lord! The before and after pictures are insane. Love what these groups are doing
I admire the passion of these people and wish them all the best for the future in cleaning up their area. Their story is one of many inspirational ones on this series so BI, please keep up the good work showing other organisations good work.
I bought a pair of Indosole flipflops after seeing the video on reusing old car tyres. I must say they are by far the best flip flops I have had in terms of comfort, and durability, the ones I got look classy too. I liked the blend of the company using recycled materials combined with ethical labour practices combined with the fact it is made in Indonesia. On holiday in Oman I ended up the flipflops instead of shoes/ boots to walk many Kilometres a day and didn't get any blisters. I even abseiled down a waterfall with them (not a smart move I know, but I didn't have any other footwear with me that I wanted to get wet).
Awesome! And such a great thing that we are finding how to make even better products using the products we produce that are at the end of their lives, Hurrah for innovations and hurrah for you letting us know how well built the chapels/sandles are.
@@louisegogel7973 Indeed. Thanks!
It is people like you who will create a positive future. Keep going, even though it is discouraging sometimes.
Bless you all for the amazing work you’re doing. Wish your project would go global into other countries as well 🙏🙏
the irony is domestic mass media rarely expose this kind of great effort to attract more contribution, so we only know the effort in Bali from international youtube channel.
Lo kira pandawara juga diliput? Kaga kan 🤣, mass media local in indonesia just for politics news
The local mass media in Indonesia these days only care about politics and the good image of the politicians, and of course the country. That's why I never watch the local mass media anymore, because they're all bollocks.
Thank Y O U for keeping the rivers and ocean clean ❤🐠🐙🐢🦀🪼🐬❤
Magnificent effort from the whole team. I am sure it is hard to stay motivated but from another Island Nation (New Zealand) we applaud your efforts and thank you for working hard to keep the ocean clean!!!!
Such hard, dirty work & so hard not become angry & hopeless, & they do it every day, for everything & everyone. Possibly the most important work now.
Gotta love that the word 'dildos' ended up on Business Insider
🤣
haha
Time tag?
@@bachlava7 at 0:34
Gotta love how dudes just can't be mature.
Governments need to ban single-use plastics. Producers are the majority of the polluters.
In the video they mentioned around the 1:40 mark that the Indonesian government did ban single-use plastics.
However, just becuase they banned they need to enforce. Which it seems they haven’t done very well.
i would not say producers are the polluters, i would say it's dumb people who simply throw their waste wherever they can, thats a people problem not a businees problem
@@dazt5831Both are the Problem. Corporations not abiding by law and idiots who throw trash into nature without thinking.
Wrong. The users are. Plastic is extremely useful. The problem are irresponsible people, who like to blame others.
hemp plastic for the win, it breaks down as its made from stems of co2 reducing plants
We need more young people like these! Bravo ! ❤️
Never forget being in Bali in 2017 on a nice beach, the following day the beach was covered in plastic and garbage from a storm washing downstream! I was so confused about what happened I was asking locals. They must have laughed at me when I walked off. It’s normal for them, so uneducated for a small island it’s amazing how they don’t care
I’ve bought furniture made from recycled plastic like this. It’s the best outdoor furniture you can buy. Love that they’re cleaning up their rivers but seems like there should be some equipment to make it easier. ❤
❤❤❤❤
Some humans are gifted with ingenuity, drive, and a strong desire to help the world instead of just helping themselves earn at the expense of others. These siblings and ALL THE OTHERS are a gift to humankind. 🎉
thankyou for keeping the rivers and ocean clean. W's
Great vid, this is the earliest I have ever watched a video
congratultores
Thanks to everyone helping clean and restore these rivers. To Truly change this, means beginning where it starts. Going back to other ways of doing things that DON’T use plastic, helps us All.
making chairs out of recycled plastic bags is pretty impressive
Until those chairs break and then just end up back where they started
It really isn't.
i agree, its pretty cool.
@@thespicemelange.1 they look very sturdy, they wont break easily. stronger than wood id bet. and waterproof. you guys should cry come more.
@@ganjalfcreamcorn8438 It's possible to reuse wood and it's also completely biodegradable and won't end up inside your body disruting the endocrine system or interfering with other functions.
Your commitment to environmental stewardship and creativity is truly inspiring! Turning Bali's river trash into sandals and furniture showcases your innovative spirit and dedication to making a positive impact. And I'm Floating Village Life.
What wonderful role models and inspirational people. Keep up the wonderful work 👏👏👏. These are the true heros and influencers the young generation needs to look up to and not the "fake" and "useless" influencers who do not benefit society. Your parents should be proud of all three of you.
BI should provide a link to the flip-flops
Exactly my question.
The company is called “Indosole”.
@@james.doring❤❤❤❤❤
Guys wear some safety gears when you jump onto that dirty water..people throw lot of bad stuff so be careful and cautious about your life too..
MashaAllah, keep doing brothers and sisters. Make earth clean and green again❤😍
One of the best You tube videos I've ever watched. Thank you from the bottom of my heart guys.
I personally think what you are doing is amazing. I understand it may feel like a never ending battle but if we don’t do something things get worse. Every little bit is a bit toward the end goal.
Well done. You have something to be proud of and I hope that people atually appreciate you and what you are doing.
Incr! God bless those young men and their helpers.🙏🏻💖🙏🏻
THANK YOU, not only to the siblings but their inexhaustible Indonesian team members. WHOA.
What an amazing group of people you are …👏👏🦋🇦🇺
Bless your 💕 hearts guys for declutterring trash on the water. Hope you have time to visit my country Philippines 🇵🇭 they need to be educated especially in squatter areas we need that in order to recycle ♻️ plastics: Bravo 👏👏👏🎉to Al and wish you all the best.
This is great. Watching from Florida in the U.S. the biggest, most wasteful country on earth. I have always done whatever I could since a child to cleanup and beautify my community. I applaud these wonderful brothers because they are making such a difference in theirs😊
What a great bunch of guys and making useful things out of the rubbish. We need more entrepreneurs doing this, its the only way forward. Its also important to educate people and stop the prkblem inthe 1st place.
With all the negative stuff going on in the world, its great to see the postive things being done, they need to be celebrated
Please continue making this series. I adore these stories, and they honestly do help inject some positivity into my worldview these days.
Oui l’éducation mais aussi l’action sont les 2 clés de la réussite. Et merci à tous ceux qui comme eux agissent pour le bien de notre planète et du vivant. Bravo pour leur courage, leur ténacité et leur travail ! 👏🙏🏻👍
I'm happy you're so positive ❤ 'a couple of years'. I respect and honour your efforts. Wonderful projects!
When I was child, Jakarta is also so dirty, Domestic wastes were everywhere. but, it was changed drastically when Anies was sworn as governor.
Full respect to those from sungai watch. Hopefully they can expand their project to other island like kalimantan. We need to collaborate to tackle the domestic wastes.
I bought several of their sandals for my family. They are sturdy!
Sam is so cute.
Wow Gary is an angel 😇 thank you 🙏🏼 Gary for cleaning this beautiful world 🌏🌍🌎 that human just trashed it 😢😮
Even clothlike materials can be made from plastic. Cloths for furniture, stain resistant and easily cleanable. Plastic bricks for homes are now in use, garden nettings for big industrial farming - but not enough is put to practical use. There's tons of uses for tons of waste plastic. The people that need to care about it don't.
Such a sweet thing to help, this man is an angel
such a paradise… so sad some residents trash it … 🙁. thank you to the great people cleaning up 🙏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
We NEED a global plan to educate on how and why this needs to stop.😢 illI'never make it to Bali.... but i see it in NYC and Long Island. Killing our wildlife and planet is not acceptable.
✌🏻😎🏴Thank you for putting in the time to clean up our rivers🙏🏻
Very insightful. My takeaways to lessen the plastic wastes: make and use less plastic. Have government policy of setting alternative packaging aside from plastic, educate people about harmful effects of plastic wastes so they can be more conscious about using it. The social entrepreneurship model is so good - it impacts the planet, lessens and up cycles wastes and helps people have jobs. Beautiful!
Fantastic work👍
I applaud the efforts the guys are doing in saving the environment in Bali and East Java, but I am afraid much would be in vain as it is heavily ingrained in our SEA (South East Culture) people mindset (except Singapore) to just simply dump trash everywhere. Don't believe me? Come to Malaysia and have a look at Klang River, then you know how dirty it is.
Plus 6:55 as a Malaysian, I am not even surprised that my country tops China on plastic waste imports. Sure, plastic waste imports to Malaysia did create more job opportunities here, but it also fuel the worsening trash problem and plastic waste problem in Malaysia.
Nothing is ever in vain, it only seems to be at the start of the exponential curve of change! Do a little bit without regard for what others do and do it with joy because it is the right thing for you to do… that is what inspires others to shift into new perspectives and therefore actions.
@@louisegogel7973 I do not deny the truth in your words, but from what I see the mindset of the people here, the effort still would be in vain regardless. Yeah, my country may had the second world tallest tower in the world, but our mentality is as bad as those living in developing countries. We give more facks about profit, salaries and work than about the environment here.
Amazing work!
我发现了一个事，我们生活要过得好，我们的思维就得，一直想着和感觉，一切都是自然，不管什么是发生，是好是坏，你必须告诉自己没事的，然后最重要一点就是，享受每一件事(enjoy), 就算当下是遇到不好的事，享受他。一切都会转好。这比冥想还要厉害，应为意思，专注就是力量(energy)
我们都知道伤心时，很难去想开心，所以当下心情就享受那过程，把伤心转换成正面心情。很多事发生了都已成为过去，享受的事会增加，因为你的思维已经转换享受开心。
Agreed, AND when we face each challenge with that positive attitude, and think wow this could be changed, then we start the creative brainstorming going for making a difference and shifting the challenges into opportunities for even better solutions and win win is the ultimate goal.
Thank you for all of your hard work!
So much respect for these people.
Unbelievable, we need more people like this ❤
Thank-you ❤ this is wonderful! ❤
First of all, thank you 🙏🏻
.second of all, i hope that not only foreign citizens that move the community, but the local people who stayed in those areas could lift up and being innovative for management waste processing, so it could decrease the pollution within the area.
I've never truly understood why is the problem of where this stuff contaminating their waterways is coming from addressed, rather than just cleaning it up over and over again for it to happen again a few months later.
Try days
We … each us as individuals… have the power to change things by how we consume. A shift always starts bit by bit, one person at a time until we realize each of us has been part of creating huge changes by way of the exponential curve action!
Thank you for doing this clean up!
I LOVE THIS! Much gratitude! Wishing you the best!!! 👏👏👏👏
It's amazing what 30 people can do in 3 hours? This makes me think a 100+ human cleaning program, would be a godsend for these times.*
I've been living in Bali long enough to tell you that, sadly, people there, not all of course, still do not care about the trash. I've seen both wealthy and poor people throwing their trash in the river or on the road. The funniest thing is every rainy season, when their beaches are full of trash, they keep saying, "IT'S FROM JAVA." Well, that could be true, but the locals in Bali aren't helping the situation either.
The Balinese government has been taking money from each tourist coming to the island, and where does all that money go? No one knows.
Indeed, Bali is the ISLAND OF GOD$.
Woooow bravo ,well done. In the same time It’s so ironic, why always foreigners/ westerners more pay attention to take initiated with genial ideas and solutions how to take care of the nature from polluted of the rubbish . Where are the local governments and well educated people to contribute to their own country? It so shame isn’t it. Again well done guys and keep going. Greeting from Scandinavian
Thank you ALL very much for helping our planet from human demise
Brilliant idea 💡 😊
Amazing work. Congratulations!!!
Respect to all of these folks for being a part of the solution. Also, it’s completely ridiculous that people continue to do this to that extent. People everywhere need to have more respect for the environment
God bless this TEAM! I want to join this group
Good job guys
I love this! You have to love where you live. This is the next level up. ❤
คนดีๆแบบนี้เริ่มจะหายากในโลกใบนี้
Great video. Thank you for uploading
Those river barriers are a great idea. 💡
Respect this so much 👍
keep up the good work. bali needs a home recycling program.
Suitable for a Nobel Peace Prize.
indonesia terkenal karena ini....
IN COLOMBIA THEY JUST BANNED PLASTIC BAGS IN SUPERMARKETS AND CONVENINCE STORES, BUT EVERY THING YOU BUY COME WRAP IN PLASTIC....LOL
It’s a start! ❤
@@sexywarriorwomenYes, and buying things that are not wrapped in plastic will start the shift there.
Enjoyed from Texas!
Good work 👍❤️🇵🇭
wow, so impressed!
Such a beautiful place. But so much trash. Thanks for cleaning it up and working so hard everyday to do so.
Can’t you partner with the Ocean Cleanup for more help? Thank you for taking charge and making a difference! ❤
Inspiring people - they give us hope
❤❤thank you for caring 🙏🏽
Well done👏
The issue with the trash issue in Indonesia is mostly the mentality of the people, but also the lack of recycling system& & infrastructure from the govt. sure some places have segregated bins for recycling, but that doesn’t matter if they will all end up in the same dump truck as one big pile of trash to chuck at the landfill. It’s all lip service, and our politicians are well-versed in the art of bullshit.
Note that all the initiatives in the vid are led by westerners. If it’s by a local, most do not have or will not spend the resources to take it to the factory level.
This is also only Bali, the most well-known place for westerners in Indonesia. The situation outside Bali is generally worse due to the lack of westerners.
How creative!
Thank you! 🖤
Wonderful story❤❤❤❤ THANK YOU!
Balinese villages up the stream always loved to brag about how clean their villages are. This is one major way how they achieve that. Dumping it to the river. But not done as a community act, but as individuals. Imagine you have hundreds of thousand of people up stream doing this daily from a simple candy packaging to house hold trash. Watch for some guy or lady drive a scooter with trashes dangling on the bike, and you will see them going to the nearest river that is not in their village and merrily tossing the rubbish. They wont do it the their own river so they dont get to feel bad or caught. I have seen this since 80’s.
