New subscriber as of this morning. I discovered your chan by NOT signing into Google today. Love what you're doing and imagined an industrial sized *rock tumbler/polisher* (the kind we had as kids) that could handle boulders and gradually polish them to a degree where they become art forms, like natural rock-shaped marbles that could be used in beer/bier gardens, corporate offices, home gardens, etc. Lights could be used (affiliated partner development) to illuminate these polished glass boulders to provide a stunning effect.

The government love to scare us and use all kinds of tactics to control us. They pushed the cold war and kept us threatened with a nuclear holocaust all through the 60, 70, 80's. Climate change is another agenda that's been shoved down our throats for the last 30-40 years. First we got told there was holes in the ozone and we're all going to die from skin cancer back in the 90's. Then we were killing the oceans with over fishing and once the Oceans became a desert, we would starve to death. Then the Earth had 12 years left in the naughtie's and we we're only buying from companies that replaced the paper they made by planting trees. Then the ice caps were melting for 10 years and we would lose all our coastal towns. Then the last 20 years, we've been scare mongered with too much carbon and we're constantly told the Earth has 12 years before it dies. But we're still here today, no matter how many times we've been told the Earth has 12 years before it dies. Now the whacky left are pushing their agenda by starting fires during summer, killing millions of animals and destroying homes and villages. In Australia 2 years ago, there was 125 fires started all over the country, causing mass evacuation and mass animal slaughters and it was all blamed on climate change. The recent fires in Rhodes was started by climate destroying left wing nuts. MSM is another tool they use to scare monger the citizens and now the public mostly know that all MSM are activists and not news agencies.
EVIL SHILL
This entire film is filled with unrecognized heroes in my opinion, people making a difference.
A world without broken skateboards but ugly other shit and tremendous waste. It’s magical, plus Chinese toxins!
We have a Global Hlut in endless leather and animal hides, we don’t need cat, fish and human food into more of what we have too much for this is absolutely just nonsense. We waste milk onto ground, the unbelievably waste in this world excels used products almost. T YThos is offensively stupid. Pat yourselves on spoiled backs! Hooray! Nope, this is offensive in stupidity! Recycling is a gigantic lie, as is green energy and other drivel. At least chemists are changing some things but this is boutique garbage for the few. This industry gave me cancer, bet can’t wait to live in a garbage home full of trash hH and exotic petroleum carcinogenic soup and degassing poisons. The .00001% will laugh at the mutagenic monsters they labored into slaves. And the world will know he was always Right! The true emancipator. All coffee grounds, woods, fish skins are 100% food for other creatures or biodegradable in the extreme with no input but environment returned to. The outside or water. Earth. This is a Black disturbing comedy! Feel good products that do nothing. Recycling Sterl and alloys to smash ores of all other metals including steel Fe, Cu, Au, Pt, Pd, Rh, Ag, Lithium salts gigantic wounds you can see from space, entire mountains topped, the greatest quarries mines for things we don’t need. Diamonds, and non scientific/industrial laser cutting. Poly Bonyls are deadly toxic as is metals using deadly Hg! We are poisoning the earth at higher speeds than ever. Poverty will drive death. Show electronics or open pit burns, war burns new and destroys kills for Grosss domestic product increase as does cancer create wealth, as does all central banking cause bondage in humans! Dislike make paper from clothing wasted and paper pulp from all the forests crops trashed, burned daily.

I think that the person who made those coconut charcoal things & the farmer who makes the fruit waste logs would be great friends.
I used to buy candle holders, bowls, plates, etc made from recycled glass . I hope artist will find you and buy your blue and other colored glass/sand. Thank you Fran and Max for taking on this massive project!
I'm so impressed with those Kenyan artisans who have found an environmentally sustainable way of producing art, reusing foam or rubber flip-flops. Bravo 👏 👏
Flipping the flipflop, genius motto, genius use.
same thats really special honestly they use the scraps to make beds for less fortunate heart warming
If you think about it, they take trash and turn it into even more trash. Apart from the fact that what they make will in itself again end up as trash somewhere else at some point, the production process also creates tons of fine chips and dust of the plastic that will end up as trash, small enough to get into the food chain. Also the chemicals they use to process the material create trash. Ultimately, they created more and more polluting trash than they started with. Humans....
@@strangereyes9594 incorrect every scrap gets shredded into smaller pieces and they use it for bedding for the less fortunate, some of the sculptures they've made are at dealerships zoos and gift shops to this day, and yes if it falls apart it will end up in a land fill. ie not the ocean..... theres a deference. but either way why are we throwing shade at someone reusing/repurposing a already wasted product in the first place? it was going to the ocean
@@strangereyes9594 let me ask you this, lets say you find silver coins, its so beat up you cant see a dates or a face but you know its silver. you cant make money off the coin but the weight of the coin in silver is worth money if you what? melt it down, use chemicals, us natural gas. are you going to do it if you found 300 in silver or will you just leave it on the ground because it will create trash eventually and the production of the melt down process is going to make trash...... its the same concept youre just closed minded
that guy who made the biodegradable food trays, and payed his workers a living wage!! faith restored
Everything is biodegradable in the blink of an eye, geologically/environmentally.
You're the one destroying the planet. encouraging people to burn 3x the crude just to make a completely inert material degrade faster than the less expensive (i.e. less resource intensive) version.
And in geological timeliness, the difference is nil-the only real difference being the extra money (i.e. energy [i.e.mostly oil and gas]) you are causing to be spent/burned.
This is the biggest scam in human history. Look man. Just remember that for every dollar spent to make something, 80% goes to burning straight fuel, so just apply that to all this stuff and ask yourself who's the real enemy? Cause it ain't me
lol, he's paying 10k, which is 120$ a month... which is nothing.. he's virtue signalling.
These people are letting their brilliance shine through and the intention they carry to make a better world is contagious. 1💙

Oh hey, it's you. You're finally awake.
how long has it been?
This video shows that there are creative ideas for recycling everywhere. In the "underdevelopped world" (as it was known in my student days), what is scarce are the financial means to develop and/or buy the necessary machines to do the hard work. Those manual hardworking men and women are heroes of a healthy conservation of our planet.
Bp all the others are going to do what is cheapest for them. They don't care. Who was the idiot thinking oil was safer on the floor than the beach? The beach is under the water too....no commen sense.
As opposed to scammers like Billy Gates, unable to come up with anything other than scams to enrichhimself and bunch of hisgreed obsessed psychopath mates like Klaus Schwab etc..
Creative ideas don't fix stupid
You know there is probably a market for the colored sand in the aquarium hobby.

The flip flop art has me floored. Its so beautiful and its so amazing to repurpose and such amazing detail. I want a full size car now lol
It's a microplastics factory.
I saw that too and its cool but doesnt the proces create even more microplastics? I think it does...
@@aldomedina449 it does, but I'm not sure whether it is worse than the flip flops breaking down in the sun on the beach or burning them or whatever else they could do with them. I'm positive it exposes the workers more. But what I think is important to note with these stories is that any effort to deal with what we do to the environment has it's own set of challenges and negative effects that they seldom mention. Especially if there's money to be made from it.
Great to see what people are doing in recycling, creating beautiful functional things from your drienvasive water hyacinths
I want a zebra!!
This is something all countries should be looking into doing. All these stories should also be shown in all schools around the world and people should be trained up into doing these jobs. Machine doing the hard part of the labor but the amount of jobs that could be created by all these amazing people is endless. Well done to them all.
Yes, yes, YES!!! We are all scrounging for resources; I LOVE to see people able to create things from trash! We need MORE ideas like these!!!
wait till my idea gets funded :) hoping ill end up on here too
karen
I applaud all of these creative businesses in their efforts to save the planet! Thank you and keep it up please!
This is basically an advertisement for Tetra Pak. Do more thorough research, these are not economically recycled. Plastic bottles are simpler to recycle.
The man making briquttes for stoves should team up with Oxfam. They are helping to make & distribute stoves which help to prevent people from going blind from all the smoke & dust produced by burning wood on cooking fires.
The planet doesn't need saving - t'was here long before we crawled all over it.....and t'will be here long after we do so. It'll shake us from it like a bad dose of the fleas.
@@WhoAmEye_WhoAreEwe its crazy how history has shown that we have had to completely restart from somewhere that's impossible to imagine for anyone who hasnt had to live off the land, add extreme climate conditions and impossible odds, and somehow we are able to rise from the ashes, (or water depending on what world wide catastrophes occur in which order), and learning that our planet typically does this every few thousand years and hasnt happened going on 11,000 years so to say we are over do for a massive climate crisis is a gross overstatement. this apparently occurs as the poles switch causing the earth to spin significantly slower while the momentum of the speed it was spinning theoretically will move the seas 2 miles high, create earth quakes so sever that the divide and shift contents to completely new climates and areas regarding north south east and west coordinates. the easy way to understand it is if a car was driving incredibly fast and suddenly slowed to 1/10 speed, lets say from 100mph to 10mph. theres a probability that things would come flying from the back seats through the windshield, passengers would be injured from essentially stopping suddenly from 90mph, and this is the way scientist explain the reoccurring pole shifts that occur every few thousand years, and we're approaching 3x that time frame soon. the antarctic would shift to the equator, the north and south poles would be some part of the equatorial countries, and makes complete sense how so much life and oil reserves have been found in places that currently have no possible way of sustaining ecosystems for the fossils discovered. the way the world would react is very similar to the signs in revelations, and its amazing how science is constantly reinforcing biblical prophecy yet the human condition of today makes it difficult to believe in any theology, and religion is often confused by the way man has manipulated it for power, and the reality of its nature is love we can not comprehend the magnitude of, and displayed by the crucifixion of Christ. i hope people are starting to feel a need for a God and savior, because after all these generations of science vs creation, the science is finally starting to reflect the high probability of a world wide series of tsunami, earthquakes, winds that would snap sky scrapers, followed by flash freezing you can see evidence from with woolly mammoth fossils. maps before Ferdinand Mageline's voyage indicate Antarctica being a content positioned along the equator instead of the poles. the ones who would survive would need nothing short of a miracle, or a space station or planet that we can use or colonize until the world has stopped smoldering, floods have settled where theyre likely to be for at least 4,000 more years, and makes sense of things like Atlantis being destroyed, as new york, san fran, and other massive cities would be so demolished and in the sea, hidden under reefs that grow and certainly some of the oddest discovered things in the ocean point to these scientific claims. its fact that the poles switch, and cause world wide extinction of most species. its inevitable at some point and raises questions why the rush to colonize mars, why the sudden spike in anti christian rhetoric and twisting the narrative of a godly and humane way to coexist, with being a bigot or hating people for their sin. weve all fallen short, we all will find out in our own time whats true and what was not. its much easier to believe the universe was created by something, not everything in existence that follows calculated equations so complex, and still endlessly progressing and feel these laws and signs are random circumstances of nothing creating things more advanced than we can explain beyond magic. some people believe Joe Biden is a good president and may be the nominee. if thats not a sign that people dont pay attention to whats starring them in the face and are disconnected from a deeper level of consciousness that seems to reveal its own universal truths when pursued with self discipline and without narrow minded assumptions of whats real and confusing that with whats not seen and understood by most. thnks if you read all this
@@WhoAmEye_WhoAreEwe Lovely, so why don't you shake yourself from existence then.
The hair bit is awesome 👏🏼 I’ve heard hair was used in oil spills but never saw it in action! That’s amazing
This is one of the most educational and inspiring videos I have seen on youtube in such a long time. Image as young ones get older and being exposed to or who have role models like you see here can inspire them to think outside the box and develop new skills, ideas and technologies that are based on recycling waste into new products. Man I myself have a dozen ideas myself just from watching this. Truly amazing work.
This movie is balm for my soul.
Great respect to all of those who are able to convert the ongoing global socio-ecological catastrophy into creative projects instead of falling into deppession and agony!
Thank You!
its truly inspiring! Today was a bad day, this greatly encouraged my heart! To see so many people pitching in and doing what they can do, and in turn inspiring more young people (and old) to put their hand to the plow, in our journey ahead to better steward our earth, I was amazed at all the different ideas, and processes. Thanks to everyone out there doing what you can do! PS. wow the last story is on my own state, one that's decimated our water ways and environs, and I have far too much of here.
The hair thing is GENIUS! Kudos, y'all.
This is so inspiring. What a brilliant fellow making the briquets.
It’s such a beautiful thing to see people actually coming up with new ways to recycle more materials. They throw it all in a Landfill here in Middle TN.
Murica has a way with being the worst at good things.. in some ways even worse than developing countries..
You could maybe try contacting you local waste management company or perhaps the county council to see if they can make changes! It never hurts to try!
@@52daa Good luck with that. You cannot change what there doing. Recycling only really happens when the economy is booming. You can thank the Leftists for our economy.
Imagine the difference these people and their ingenuity could make if they had the scale of equipment/machinery needed to help them on a mass scale. I would be happy to pay a little bit more for the sugarcane paper products. I wish the US restaurants would do more to use/produce products such as this. I thoroughly love the people and every single idea/product of theirs in this video.
And why do we consistently support a country who hates us, spies on us constantly, does things to disrupt our financial security, and makes it no secret that it plans to take the U.S. one day (likely in the VERY NEAR future) when we could support THIS company and THIS country's innovation while helping to reduce both their and our pollution of the planet by importing this product? We could supply our schools' lunchrooms, restaurants, backyard picnics, and workplace potlucks.... I would pay lots more just to avoid "Made In China"

Have you done your share yet .... I'm getting ready to do my 2005 Mustang .... I was going to get with the 3M glass weld ... Probably without the primer .... Just leave a little bit of old residue that is on the window and cleaning up , so it won't be consistent and even.... A lot of people are doing that and skipping the primer ..
I just ran into Rino today ... As well as 3M it look like people swear by them both ....
It looks like rhino is easier to work with .... I've had some people that have used 3M and they were saying it's over two years and it's still holding up....
Hard to desire .... I wish you luck I'm going to buy the two weeks
Very impressed with all of the recycling everywhere and the artwork/sculpture. There are some very talented people out there. Please keep up the excellent work and may your passion for what you do grow.
you should try it! Whittle something out of some styrofoam next time you get some in a package :) just make sure you properly dispose of the scraps. I like painting the finished product and weighing it down on the bottom, doesn't even look like a scrap material after I'm done. Good way to make ornaments, planters, little sculptures, book ends, replacement pieces for broken furniture (as long as it's not load bearing) etc
The mattress solution solves more than one problem and necessity. They should just concentrate on that solution rather than the art. The output from effort and resources is an unequal ratio. An output ratio of the mattress concept is way less work, and way higher output.
@@ET2carbon If you're referring to the flip-flops: one is probably more profitable to a bunch of sculptors though. Reminder that the people making sculptures out of carved flip-flops are not people who saw flip-flops and decided to start carving with this surplus of flip-flops, but woodworkers who have wordworking tools and skills that could be repurposed into sculpting amalgamated flip-flops.
are you planning on buying a Hairball from them ?

May they prosper over and above the oligards products, as those conscious of what's happened buy more from the little guys. Wonderful documentary, Thank you
Fantastic use of hair! Perhaps wool clothing could also be used for the same purpose. There are tons of discarded clothing that end in the trash.
Excellent idea
If only the news media would cover these fantastic entrepreneurs who are coming up with unique ways to solve environmental problems! If only our leaders in the government would support these projects and help with scalability instead of helping corporations and billionaires who create the problems.
This program was so educational and informative it blew my mind. I've always been 100% behind recycling everything possible. Watching this has inspired me to look deeper and farther into ecological productions. Thanks for enhancing my knowledge with this information.
Recycled shit goes into the south China sea
What I would like to know is, why don't governments around the world create regulations that put a stop to making goods and packaging good using materials that create this problem in the first place?
Instead they spend txc dollars marketing the idea that we have a global environmental crisis and telling people we need to be more conscious of the goods we consume, force us to pay for recycling programs which don't work, not to mention what we spend on medical care that results from people being slowly poisoned by toxins dumped into our environment, but they won't tell a manufacturer they can no longer make products or package their products out of these materials in the first place!
Beverages and water STILL bottled in plastic, fresh meat still packaged with foam trays and plastic wrap, frozen foods still packaged in plastic, every store still using those riduclous paper thin plastic bags that we know just break down into smaller pieces of plastic and become a part of the ecosystem poisoning everything, virtually forever!
The solution is so simple: use glass; metal; hemp and bamboo paper/cardboard lined with real bees' wax for packaging food- all recyclable, and all safe. We need to go back to natural fibers for our clothing, most of our clothing is plastic. I commend all of these wonderful people making ingenious products out of this toxic garbage, but their products will STILL end up in a landfill one day. Recycling does not address the problem at its root, it does not put a stop to the creation of more landfills to accommodate more toxic trash or the ongoing poisoning of the environment.
It's because there's too much money behind these manufacturers- our so - called government leaders don't work for the people and they certainly don't care about the environment, but rather, they are in the pockets of these large corporations that truly rule the world. Until human beings refuse to buy these products, nothing will change. Governments legislate everything else - why not legislate these producers and prohibit production that uses these problematic materials? The simple answer is greed.
We will continue to have our food sprayed with toxins instead of safe, natural pesticides that work because who is going to stand between the production entities and their profits? No politician ever will, they stand to make too much for themselves by doing the bidding of these conglomerates. Pfizer, Bayer, and Monsanto are now one and the same - just who is going to go up against that kind of money and power?
The consumer is the only answer. It's on each one of us to stop this by using the power of our purchasing dollar- but we must be willing to pay more for our goods, temporarily, until the playing field is leveled and all producers are using safe materials and legally restricted from returning to these cheaper toxic materials in order to pursuade consumers away from their competition with a lower selling price.
But that won't happen either because if they can save a dollar, consumers will always purchase the plastic or plastic wrapped item. We have been brainwashed by the marketing of these companies telling us that new is better - the newest model of car, the newest techno gadgets, we routinely get rid of perfectly good items just to immediately buy it again it its latest model. We, the consumer are the problem and the solution.

The flip flips are bittersweet. Grinding and sanding the sandals are creating micro particles of the foam which is doing what nature would do in several months to years, but in seconds. All those micro particles get blown by the wind and can travel very far right back into the ocean. 🤷🏻♂️

the people repurposing flip flops was really inspiring honestly, this video really renews my faith in humanity there are still good people in the world
What about making art out of flip flops makes them a good person? 🤔
@@Justin-xj3gd almost has nothing to do with the art or the flip flops (cant believe i have to explain this like im talking to a toddler) it has to do with helping the less fortunate, cleaning beaches, giving people jobs that probably wouldn't have one other wise all while making money doing it too. pretty amazing im sure flipflop art wasnt his first choice or he didnt grow up wanting to be a flip flop artist. obviously others think so too considering their arts all over the world all of this qualifies in my book as caring people and not just out to make as much money as they can. i mean its a business still but anterior motives it seems.
@@cheesemongering109 I am only watching the same video you saw. So you not only know that he is good, but now you also know he is helping the less fortunate, caring, and doesn't want to make as much money as he can? I agree it is pretty amazing and innovative to come up with a way to incorporate this product into his art, and good business to adapt to changing supply of raw material. I don't see the need to label a business a good or bad based on the information presented. Most business provides opportunities for their employees they hire, and all good business begins with the intent to make money. Flip flop art is just a good business with innovative marketing that has come up with a way to source their raw materials and dispose of their waste in a way that helps the environment. Fyi, it is ulterior motives not anterior (just a tiny toddler critique 😉).
imagine being that stupid XD
Absolutely! I ordered a flip flop hippo, puppy and cat.
People are so amazingly creative! These are people are brilliant. 🤯
People like them are really heroes building a future for the younger generation
Bravo to are hero's who are making a difference in reusing waste!! These individuals are creative and impressive with there wonderful ideas to recycle.
I'm really impressed with the glass to sand lady who recognized the problem of burning gas to transport recyclables. This is a problem nobody really talks about; all the environmentally detrimental costs that go into trying to do something helpful for the environment. Those have to be calculated in the net gain from whatever you're doing & need to be recognized so they can hopefully be mitigated.
Unfortunately the wine industry exploded over twenty years in my country. Miles and miles of pristine bush and forest torn down for a trivial and unhealthy activity. I get eating grapes but stripping the country just for a sip of sour juice is just wanton decadence. And grapevines are voracious water users. Our biggest river is being sucked dry as fruit orchards are still being converted to wine. Fruit tree roots can search for underground water. Grapevine is all drip fed. Then the runoff back into the river full of fertiliser.
Perhaps people should try not drinking. Signed Melbourne Australia.
Uhhh... how exactly do you think they transport the bottles to the facility, process the glass, and then move their products anywhere? They showed that they were using commercial electricity produced by fossil fuels, and gas vehicles in the story. The most environmentally friendly use of glass bottles is washing and reusing them how they do in countries such as japan.
@@Justin-xj3gd - And when people do not do that...?
@@MossyMozart How about a bottle deposit law like Michigan and Oregon. The distributors pay a deposit when they sell to retailers and then they recoup that when the bottles are returned. It just makes sense when beverage distributors drop off beverage there is room for these returns in the very same trucks. You could extend these bills all the way to the bottle/can manufacturers so when they drop new bottles off they can pick used bottles up and reuse or melt them back down as they see fit. Seems like an easy solution to me, it eliminates all the transportation costs and incentivizes behavior that seems logical.
@@Justin-xj3gd In the US that was standard. As a kid it was a way to make money - collecting empty bottles from neighbors and the trash and returning them to the store to get the deposit. I don't know why they ever discontinued that program. Most likley had something to do with the introduction of bottling beverages in plastic.
All these ideas are so amazing due to innovation from genius minds, absolutely fantastic.
This is amazing to see. I always see/ pick up so much trash just on walks and it just goes to the trash it’s so depressing to see. So exciting to see things being done. And hopefully keeps on going. 🙏🏼
Absolutely amazing documentary! Thank you so much!!! We need more entrepreneurs and inventors like this.
How cool and heart warming is this, gives me a little hope for the world that is pointed in a bad direction
Nothing about the border though weakling though no doubt amen Kim?? lol yeah no doubt. Who cares KIM!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who cares!!!!!!!!!! How about real issues? Border please hun!!! Border hun!!!!!

Just keep preaching. BORDER BABE!! BORDER KIM> BORDER BABE.
The sculptures from the flip-flops look insanely good!
These ideas. Are brilliant, if I had money I would want to invest in the young man that uses coconut shells into charcoal. These people have the ideas to make the future better.
I love that everything in the video is needed and helps people and the planet if we all keep coming up if theses ideas we might actually save the world as we know it
God bless these folks who work hard to make the world a better place!
I'm Soo impressed with peoples imagination!! How awesome!
Did anyone catch that they said they clean up oil with petroleum made wipes? So Rockefeller figured out how to clean up his oil spills with his own oil 😂👏🏻
They should make the flip flops from the hair mats with oil, after putting them in the envelopes that the hair was originally sent to them in?
This video was 2 hours and 32 minutes and it was so full of useful information. It did not feel like 2 hours and I am waiting for more content at the end of this video. Fantastic production . Who ever put this video together did great research and fantastic presentation please make more. I hope schools can take time to show these kind of videos to school aged children . Much easier to educate the children then to try to change the way of an older generation. If the children can take an interest in this kind of education then the parents MIGHT follow.....
I can only applaud these amazing innovators.
I wish you the best with your products because you're doing the world a great service by recycling used flip-flops.
Love the art out of sandles, love it.
@Michelle Davis - The skate board recyclers are very creative, too.
Such a nicely done video! I'm really struck by the quote about something along the lines of "Just because you think something could be done doesn't mean it will be done." It's inspiring to realize there is so much opportunity! There's so much value add to be had from waste streams that can be harnessed to fuel the effort required to reuse and recycle those materials!

The people at Swell, the kelp "plastic", blew my mind. I'm in awe at the creativity and ingenuity of people.
I'm grateful for Insider, thank you.
Most of these products have a very limited market and though they are reducing some waste the overall effect is tiny. We need government restrictions on the initial production of things like packaging- no more plastic bottles for soft drinks, only returnable glass.
And no more single-use items for fast food in developed countries that see the most amount of tourism and have the money to make the change cold-turkey. Hawaii has only compostable single-use items; everyone else needs to get on board.
Exactly: the effect is tiny. Restrictions are needed and help for the poorer countries. The creativity of this enterprises and groups of people is Anyway, commendable,
@@brutherbubbabluegrassbumps1984 Perhaps if you had more respect for your environment the countryside would not be covered by all your trash.
That's far too simplistic, although I agree with your sentiment. In practice your idea just doesn't acheive the goals you desire, in fact they are worse.
Sway would actually affect a large market. Do you realize how many laundries, supermarkets, retailers, and small businesses use these kinds of plastics right now. l use them, and so do millions of other companies. I am interested in using her items myself for packaging. If she sold them on Amazon, they would never be in stock for selling our shirts.
Its amazing what can be done with wasted goods and what can waste can be made into, Very impressive, and also help with environment. Thank you. Great video😘😘😘
Honestly, don't even think of buying nfts or meme coins. Invest in any one of these amazing and truly needed companies. The Kenyan artists, glass recycling, compostable tableware have me absolutely amazed!
Who knew Business Insider would end up being my favorite RUclips channel?!
How wonderful is this !! Thank you to all that are a part of these products
These brilliant people are so inspiring.
Glass jars and bottles always have a home with me. Whatever I buy that's packaged in glass gets reused either for my painting hobby (the bottle caps make great watercolor pans for homemade watercolors), wash jars for my paint brushes, flowers, reused to store dry goods like rice, cereal, noodles, oatmeal, coffee, tea... I do the same thing with metal tins. Granted, not everyone will do this, but every little bit helps.
Didn't Bob Ballard choose not to file salvage for Titanic, when he found it, thinking everyone would recognize it as a graveyard. Sadly others came behind him and filed for the rights, got them, and proceeded to sell tickets round the world, with funds going to their company. My point is, make sure your design is protected and can't be taken over. Awesome job!!
Amazing, the world needs more of these people. 😊
Wow I love these people for their well thought out and thoughtful ideas. God bless them all. Truly the human spirit is great when not making war. ⚘🕊
Wow shit just got very real for me because I just got home from Alaska. It truly wrecks my soul to think my children and grand kids will have to go through so much of we don't find a way to solve the world's issues
God bless these people. This is so Amazing!
I love it how good people are so ingenious ❤😊
I make lots of things out of cardboard ! Like jewelry boxes with hand made flowers !
I wish I had money to help everyone with their dreams in this program they are all amazing people, every Country should help their people with this kind of work🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Videos like these gives me hope😊 there really are people who care and are trying to stop part of the damage we have done to our earth and come up with marvelous ideas 🙏 👏
Love how the one lady pointed out that they are looking toward cottage industry. Sounds like a more rewarding side hustle than delivering food!
Outstanding skills ad creativity. Thank you for making a difference in world trash overload, contributing a solution, and sharing your gifts of art.
I'm an artist and I'm only at the flip flop segment but I would LOVE to do what they do! How cool is that!?
A documentary that spreads hope. Much needed! Thank you!!!!
You know what is the saddest part about this video is the fact that most of these are stuff that can increase jobs in the US as well as help our environment.
Why is that sad?
@@janetwhite7786 It's sad because we not doing it.
This is all incredible!
45:40 vegetable and fruit waste is used to feed cattle on my sister's farm.
They LOVE mango seeds, pineapples, corn husks, etc.
THANK YOU FOR THIS SHOW!
These heros, artisans, hard workers and thinkers are what frankly, the world really needs, i know they may never see this comment but, to those people
Keep going, you're doing your part, it may seem small but you are making a change!
This such an interesting video. Such wonderful ideas.❤❤❤
Wish there was a list of how to support these businesses.
Yes . That may help us become more involved in the process of saving each corner of the world 🌎
Google it
I'm planning on recycling dog poop into paper. It would be a cycle collecting poop out from my front lawn left by people walking their dogs. I haven't perfected my recycling dog poop yet it's currently being mixed with an old newspaper at this time it's still just gray in color and too thick and I have been boiling it to take the smell out it will be nice to have supporters for this new idea I invented.
@@thisale9197 goodluck!
Very educational and inspiring. Together building and saving the earth for our future generations.
There is not much to say but absolutely amazing the people who are doing what they've doing to reduce trash and make themselves a living out of it absolutely fabulous 👌

This is so awesome. I just wish they all had proper PPE
I know :( but safety is a luxury only for the rich in developing countries.
People that have less are the most imaginative. Love all what these people are doing! Ok the seaweed and replacing plastic i love that.
I love the hair mat thing! When I cut my waist length hair off I donated it to the cancer society; but now I’m keeping my very fast growing hair clipped. Imagine if all the hair salons sent in their hair clippings to produce these mats and clean the oil out of the oceans! Why not stitch the mats together with floating booms to keep them afloat and recoverable? Why not Use TWO techniques and technologies together to keep the waters clean?
I have heard about the hair mats in a different documentary, and it turns out the hair mats continuously get heavier, while a plastic alternative absorbs oil and remains lighter and stays afloat.
Excellent ideas and beautiful artwork of the end products ❤️
Awesome to see people from Alberta be recognized here
The couple making fruit pulp firewood look so happy 😄
amazing human brilliance! keep up the good work!!!
The long-term business that had me amazed was sway, moving beyond sustainability to regeneration, to convert a system to both that has long-term real practical applications that have a real shot at fixing the plastic problem. Even the by-product has the potential when broken down to improve the soil, also giving coastal communities work opportunities were overfishing has destroyed their employment opportunities, like I said amazed, here is hoping that large corporations and governments take note and move more to this thought process.
