18 Products Made From Trash - Season 3 Marathon | World Wide Waste | Business Insider 

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.

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

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.

@@piy5000 dude's forgetting not every country has the same economy, some people only make the equivalent of 4-6 dollars a day equalling around 120-180 dollars a month and even less, but for where they were it was liveable and umping from 4 to 6 was a big improvement. Just because that amount isn't much for you or where you are, doesn't make it a small amount of money for them.

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.

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.

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

It's a microplastics factory.

I saw that too and its cool but doesnt the proces create even more microplastics? I think it does...

@@aldomedina970 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!!

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"

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.

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 ?

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 😉).

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.

cardboard is a great compost item, and bottles can be reused -- a lot of people just don't. Pen holders, planters for herbs, feeding scoops for pets and livestock, bird feeders, terrariums, sprinkler systems, drip watering systems, sugar water hummingbird feeders, etc. Next time you have a bottle that's been reused one too many times for your taste just look up how to repurpose it, or you can just fill it with water and stick it spout down in your garden as an automatic watering can.

@@appalachiabrauchfrau - Composting worms, "Red Wrigglers", will eat organic stuff including carboard.

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?

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.

@Michelle Davis - The skate board recyclers are very creative, too.

Why is that sad?

@@janetwhite7786 It's sad because we not doing it.

I know :( but safety is a luxury only for the rich in developing countries.

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.

So pay to build a facility for them that is more eco-friendly and sustainable...🤷🏽‍♀️
