  1. Probably because of China.

  2.  @martinbudinsky8912  No not really. China has a massive amount of illegal fishing going on and it's grown exponentially in the last decade. It's easy to blame China because they really are largely the bad guys, and it's extremely likely they are almost the sole cause of this.

  3. You left out the part where they add canola and soy oil at the end to dilute it and make more money.

  4. lmao they aren't doing that for all of it. There is no way humanly possible that could even happen. That is just a few people batch testing, they took samples from every few bags.
    22
  5. Oh please this isn't even "mining" it's more like harvesting. It's picking up surface rocks. The environmental impact is extremely minimal. The biodiversity and biomass at such depths is minimal and insignificant. This is truly revolutionary and needed.
    22
  6. Exactly this stuff is garbage and a cash grab. I don't want my hair looking like straw because I'm using the same soap people did 100 years ago that some witch is peddling with her eco company. Look at her hair, straw.

  7.  @MrPeanutJohn  II thought the issue is the 100 km from coast is that country's waters law. China's coast and many of the island nations near China's coast have their 100 km from coast waters overlapping into each other because of how close they are. China refuses to share these waters which makes the most sense since both countries have a right. That is the main issue to my understanding, and China refuses to be reasonable. There are other minor subjects to the issue but that is the main one.

  8. Exactly. He worked hard to stay in the market and has his corner of it and that is the sole reason. His argument of kids drinking 1% alcohol tea is just absurd as if he cares or virtually anyone else. It's basically nothing.

  9. It doesn't help the environment, it still hurts it. It lessens the burden.

  10. Some things just are inferior and should fade away. If they never humanity would never progress. This is for educational purposes, not because this is worthy to preserve for any other reason than educational purposes.
    13
  11. They would combat a lot more desertification by turning it into biochar and working it into the soil making it fertile like the Mayan/Inca did.
    11
  12. Or governments could budget their money better. The cost is actually not that much compared to the annual budget of these large nations. The USA for example has had literal trillions go missing and unaccounted for, for decades now. Around 7-10 trillion missing since around 2000 for the USA. The pentagon started auditing when it was around 3 trillion missing and a plane magically crashed in the exact area of the whole building where the auditing was taking place on sept 11 2001. What are the odds hey?

  13.  @alexandervowles3518  China's metrics are false reported or absent almost always for almost everything. Keep that in mind.

  14. I would say it is even too delicate. There is very little to destroy as far as biodiversity or biomass at that depth and at surface level. Just sucking up the surface rocks is a waste as no one will go over that site again. They should be harvesting rock not just surface level but down a few feet as it goes also to truly exploit every meter. Just think about it they are already there and going to the effort, how much more work could it be. Not only will this reduce the overall size and rate of surface harvested. It will bring in most likely a significantly larger harvest.

  15. This is good news for Asia and Africa since their garbage goes into the ocean and rivers. But this is irrelevant for the West, we have proper waste management and our plastic and other waste goes into landfills so this is completely irrelevant for us and takes away freedom of choice.

  16.  @davidy22  Correct must be China because of their known extensive illegal fishing practices. It's a comment based on real world information. Which I already pointed out. So that tells me reading comprehension is something you are clearly lacking.
    8
  17. "Do your really need that plant?" Is frankly an absurd question. The answer is always no. It's a hobby, it's not cloths or some other necessity. The relevant question is "can you make use of it?".
    7
  18. Right but why is he doing it in the first place... hire someone
    7
  19. That's what raises the price and makes it authentic. Saying the name with a native accent raises the price too.

  20.  @jonathanxavier2026  No that does not happen. It's illegal, and laws are actually enforced. You have watched too much Ferngully. It must be a new release in your backwater country. lol

  21. lmao did they actually say "poaching" anthills is threatening their future... Did someone actually write that and think it wasn't absurd.

  22. Yet plastics are still one of the greatest up lifiting inventions of the modern age and have saved countless lives so the comparison to the issue you are bringing up is so infinitesimal it's ridiculous.
    6
  23.  @RobGodMC  Not really, mineral content of the soil heavily affects the mineral content of the plant. It's not rocket science. Remember all the minerals on the planet are not evenly distributed. There are mineral veins. One area it could be high in magnesium another calcium. Secondly protein and vitamin content can be affected quite a bit by the mineral content of the soil. If it lacks essential minerals the content will be lower. Harsher environments will increase phyto compounds. It's a legitimate concern for it's nutrition.
    6
  24.  @GameFuMaster  This is actually quality control. It's not about just planting, it's about not damaging the reputation of the fruit itself and thus sales from people mass producing low quality fruit. Which is completely understandable.

  25. Go explore it and tell us about the wealth of ecology at those depths on the ocean floor. I'm sure it's worth preserving.

  26. What do you expect from backwards cultures. There is a reason why the industrial revolution never happened in Asia.
    6
  27.  @davidy22  Or are wholly ignorant of the subject yet authoritatively assert your opinion as fact instead of engaging in an appropriate manner for your awareness.

  28. Just a reminder, the use of that thin plastic for foods is for sanitary reasons almost all the time. You don't want to be eating the thing that has all the dust and germs on it.

  29.  @lucaskp16  People are talking about the WAY it was presented. Not the topic itself.

  30. A little known fact most people don't understand is probiotics by and large still give all their benefits even if they've been pasturized and killed. All the chemicals they've made that give the biological effects are still there. The only difference is colonizing the gut which they largely never do anyways studies have shown and need to be constantly consumed anyways, so in reality it doesn't make a difference. So a squirt bottle of komucha concentrate to put in your bottled water is actually not a bad idea if someone worked out a good recipe.

  31. The effort and energy put into this clearly isn't efficient for saving the coastline. Frankly the glass should just go to the landfill. This is for all intents and purposes quite pointless.
    5
  32.  @GameFuMaster  They do. They are doing both. They are both the grower and distributor. So it's clearly not stupid nonsense you don't seem to understand they are doing both functions for increased profit. The same thing is done in many industries. The drug industry would be one example.
    5
  33.  @GameFuMaster  Uh yes they pretty much will be if grown in the same environment the same way as they are doing there. Do you realize almost every plant grown for food is a clone right...
    5
  34. And I've switched away because I want something that people weren't using 100 years ago and makes your skin like sand paper and hair like straw. Case in point the witch who owns that eco scam company. Her hair looks like straw.

  36. I don't get what the IOC needs or does with the 150million from broadcasting every two years if all they do is some administrative organization.

  37. Ya if everyone wants to use some garbage 2in1 shampoo or something. Most people don't want their hair to look like straw like the witch in the video who owns the one eco scam company selling bar soap thats 2 cents for 10 000% mark up.
    5
  38.  @insectbite1714  Nah they are a scam. I don't want my hair to look like someone from 100 years ago, like straw like the witch in the video who owns the one eco scam company selling bar soap with clay and honey in it that costs 2 cents for a 10 000% profit. This natural junk is just that garbage. Billions have been spent on cosmetic RnD for a reason.

  39. @CaelaSculptoris Studios No not racist. Racial and racist are two different words. Go back to ESL.

  40. Then maybe the people living there should grow a spine and capture and arrest the terrorist instigators if they are all so innocent. That would end the conflict instantly and so much more. Or even invite Israeli occupation to do it for them if they are that incompetent. I mean it's costing them their lives, how could they be against it...

  41. Exactly it's false advertising.

  42. Daily sunscreen is the biggest propaganda lie in dermatology. The majority of sunscreen chemicals cause skin damage and skin cancer and the studies that show this never make headlines because it would make the industry look like fools for peddling it all along. They are the last thing you would want to put on your skin everyday. Save it only for days spent in the sun.

  46.  @GameFuMaster  That's the point a generic isn't an exact duplicate. You realize that right? It can be the exact same chemical with an entirely different patented creation process that makes it different at the end. Same with the carrier it's in and so on.

  47. I don't I think it's absurd and a cash grab. I don't want "natural" plastic free bar shampoo that makes my hair look like straw like the witch that owns that cash grab company selling 2 cent bar soap for 10 000% profit. Plastic isn't much of an issue in the West because it just goes in landfills along with everything else and gets essentially fossilized. So that's another climate false fact. Plastic not being recycled doesn't equate to plastic isn't needed nor synthetic ingredients and products with millions of RnD put into them to actually work and make you look better than someone from 100 years ago using bar soap with clay and honey in it. Get out of here.

  49. Yup, you almost have to assume you'll kill them at some point. So always propagate backups. Or at least start trying to learn how to. Nothing is worse that finding a certain plant variety that you absolutely love and you kill and you can't even find it again because it's out of production.
    4
  50. Succulents are overrated and most of them a complete nightmare to keep as houseplants. Outside if you live in the right place they can be braindead easy. What is silly is how all the trendy fad expensive houseplants are absurd hard to keep and hard to even flower if they can. People need to go back to basics. Things like african violets, streps, epicia and so on are brain dead easy, and far more beautiful than virtually every fad plant, cheap and basically flower almost all year without too much effort. Super easy to propagate too.

  51.  @davidy22  Nope you just have the reading comprehension of a third grader. Your disability isn't my obligation.

  52. People forget you can keep jasmine sambac as a houseplant and enjoy the perfume many times a year since it blooms frequently. There are also several very nice varieties.

  53. If only they knew simple 3% hydrogen peroxide nebulized that literally costs pennies and anyone can get in 10-15 minutes of inhaling almost completely relieves labored breathing and after several treatments over a handful of days completely resolves all symptoms thus cures it.

  54. Maybe stop doing terrorist attacks then your lives will get easier. I know crazy thought.

  55. In the old days it was common in the West too similarly. Woven wicker paddles, they were used to beat the dust out of rugs. Also big wooden spoons.

  57. What is even easier is streptocarpus, a houseplant in the african violet family. It's easily a windowsill plant and blooms all year long under correct care with many flowers on long stems. The flowers last 2-4 weeks as cut flowers and the flowers have a decent size and come in the most amazing colors and patterns. Some are even slightly fragrant.

  61.  @revolutionalist  No you are wrong. The industrial revolution came about in the west, laregely due to the Christian mindset which aloud for modern science to come about and be performed. China and Asia was laregely stagnant in innovation for thousands of years. Their mindset(mystical/religious) never aloud them to fathom to even try and innovate and do science to advance. They were a very backwards inferior culture. This has been largely studied and documented at Oxford on how the West advanced human civilization. It all boils down to the mindset Christianity gave the West that science could be done. It's something to the effect that logic is expected to be found since everything was created by a coherent logical God. That isn't exactly how it was put but pretty close. That is the point I'm making. There are flat out backwards and inferior cultures.

  62.  @andrewbui4287  Sure if you want to deny the human condition. So that's hardly a rationalization.

  63.  @gooserk6222  vague much?

  64.  @mehere8038  You are missing the point. Turning the land fertile while getting rid of an invasive plant at the same time opens up a lot of farm land to make money. Land that stays fertile for hundreds of years from the persistent biochar in the soil. It's like the old saying teach a man to fish.
    3
  65. Not really. There is no threat to public health. We know now Covid19 is a joke. 99.99+ survival rate for virtually every age infected and UNTREATED. Most people want the Olympics in their country so that is debatable. The cost is high but not in relation to the budget of such a large country such as Japan or the USA and so on. Look at the USA they just spent trillions on covid relief. 10-20 billion is nothing.
    3
  66. A 4 dollar african violet can easily make 20+ more plants and you can have every window in the house covered with them and blooming almost all year. Just a few leaves snapped off and they propagate several baby plants.

  67.  @deiartist  We don't throw our waste in the ocean. So yes you shouldn't be entitled.

  68. Plastic is not an issue unless the country has no waste management. You are peddling new world order climate control absurdity. All the waste of humans of all civilization has been tallied to only be the size of a mountain, one. There is no climate waste issue other than no waste management.

  72. If only nebulizing cheap drug store 3% hydrogen peroxide to cure covid would get taught to these poor countries. People wouldn't have to be dying and losing all their money. It's so sad. Even HCQ costs pennies on the dollar.

  77. BINGO. Anything this is used for you can already use paper for all intents and purposes. Think wax paper even. So why bother. Paper also decomposes and is easier to produce.

  79.  @mduvigneaud  Waxed paper is likely just as resistant or more than this which will be weak to humidity. It's still a defunct product aside from the materials transparency if it can even be produced clear.

  80.  @lumini3172  Reading comprehension is an important skill to develop. Look at the context of what I wrote. Did I say recycling glass is bad? No. I said the resources being used to do all of this for all intents and purposes is pointless in relation to the output and impact. Those resources are being mismanaged. This is not hard to comprehend. Let me give you an example to help you grasp the conversation. This is like a group that uses lets say 1 million dollars a year to and clear areas of an invasive plant. When they could instead use that million to produce millions of clones of mature native plants that would out compete the invasive species because they are already past the vulnerable seedling stage and established plants. This is a waste of resources. If you still can't grasp the conversation then perhaps it's not for you.

  81.  @alextrevelian  It isn't a precise duplicate, somehow you being a "pharmaceutical scientist" are still confused on that fact. Which is mind boggling. For one the carrier and filler the active is in is not considered as required to duplicate in a generic yet can be quite important in the effect of the drug and patented even. After all it's what the drug company paid billions on tested and got their results from. Secondly the active, the molecule itself can still be different because it's produced in a patented protected novel way which also affects how the drug interacts with biology which can not be duplicated in a generic. The molecules are not identical in structure in that case even if the chemical makeup of the molecule is the same. Third a generic is a facsimile NOT a duplicate. Meaning it is as true to nature as possible, not that it is true to nature as the original. BIG DIFFERENCE. This is all in the law. THAT IS THREE KEY AREAS AND FACTORS! HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW THIS AS A "PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENTIST"? Are you a liar? How can you possibly be this ignorant? It's mind boggling.
    2
  82. That's a joke compared to Africa and Asian waste. Not even comparable. This is good news for Asia and Africa since their garbage goes into the ocean and rivers. But this is irrelevant for the West, we have proper waste management and our plastic and other waste goes into landfills so this is completely irrelevant for us and takes away freedom of choice.

  83.  @debbiefox6846  OMG Debbie no! Plastic is not a huge problem in the USA far less much of a problem in the first place. Like I said plastic waste is under control in the West, it's literally no different than any other household waste, it's treated all the same it gets thrown together and put in the same pile at the dump and sealed and entombed and fossilized basically. It functionally does not matter whether it's plastic or your food scraps at that point. Plastic is polluting the planet because of largely a select few Asian nations who dump their garbage in the ocean and throw it into rivers that empty into the ocean. And to a much lesser extent poor countries without proper waste management. This is a completely misrepresented issue. This is NOT an issue even worth mentioning for the West. It's ridiculous. Plastic in of itself has been a miracle for human civilization, it's cheap, provides convenience, and offers easy sterile solutions. These eco plastics will functionally be worthless for the most part for the West because of our waste management. The whole conversation has been blown out of proportion.
    2
  84.  @sowhat6025  No I mean exactly what I said and was quite clear. Shipping trash off to other nations has nothing do with proper waste management ability, it has to do with it being cheaper and another country being stupid and or poor enough to agree. But you'd already know that if you had two brain cells. This isn't a complicated concept to grasp.

  85. This is basically plastic too, it just breaks down faster because it's less processed.

  88. Is the silk even sold locally with such a high price? How can anyone afford it when it's too expensive for even the average person in the richest Western countries to afford... Muga silk sounds like only something the very wealthy can afford.
    2
  89.  @headhunterkonyak4337  That is what I'm getting at. There is a substantial markup. People are making money and a lot of money, it is not a tiny profit margin. The cost is almost solely based around labor of the country which in India from a international economy perspective is low. Thus the markup is enormous. The profit margin is high, the price is inflated because of rarity and demand. It is not a trade with poor profit that is on the verge of dying. The video lied with how it presented it.

Amazing reasonably priced houseplants that bloom all year easily, easy to propagate. Largeish flowers that can last 2-4 weeks as cut flowers in a vase. I suggest the (DS) varieties. So many plants are extremely overpriced now because they've been made into a fad and many of them are nothing great despite the hype and don't "love you back."

  104. Blame government. Masks were never needed they are ineffective against virions. They wanted to perpetuate the covid narrative like it's deadly ebola yet there is virtually nothing anyone can do to prevent contracting it so they said wear masks to make people feel like they can do something to protect themselves. It's a big joke and clearly something going on behind the scenes since we knew the kill rate on untreated is 99.9%+ for virtually any age. Just a reminder Ebola survival rate is 60%.

  111. Aside from capping them in residential or other human use areas like parks where people are immediately around or in the extremely rare case a protected ecosystem, this seems like an absolute waste of money and resources in relation to their emissions and ecological impact. One oil pipeline leak likely immediately outclasses the emissions/damage of all of these combined. Maybe be an oversight company checking over oil pipelines. Or the million other things that are worse. But then again the only ones they cap given the cost is the ones I mentioned above so my point is likely irrelevant.

  113. Of course they do. This is only primarily affecting already diseased sick or elderly near death people. Almost all of the population shouldn't have to worry at all. And even the ones that do if you catch it HCQ or nebulizing common 3% drug store hydrogen peroxide cures it within days and in the case of hydrogen peroxide almost immediately relieves labored breathing removing the need for ventilators for the serious cases. This is the most basic cheap treatments even third world countries can easily do. Thera are many more... The virus fearmongering news is literally like literally propaganda for god knows what reason but it is.

  120.  @pinkpantheressstann  No I never. I quoted the source of water garbage for the world. "Asia and Africa since their garbage goes into the ocean and rivers." This should be clear given the context of the video is plastic waste in the ocean, specifically consumer waste not industrial. So logically that's what my comment here would be on. Like I said reading comprehension is important.

  124. If it isn't made by Tesla it will be made by some other company after they steal Teslas IP, which would likely take awhile. But this way Tesla can pull in funding and have additional resources which is a good thing since they have basically the smartest people in the world wanting to work for them because of their freedom for radical innovation and other smart people working there.

  128. That is the point. It is not pennies in their own currency. That is why they are getting paid that. It's a fair wage in their economy otherwise they would not be growing it. Secondly it's raw material, much of the effort and cost comes in processing. They clearly can't afford hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars in machinery to process it. Machinery which is the main reason their even is a market for their material to be bought in the first place! If they want more profit they need to do what farmers do in other areas of the world. Form a co-op and process it themselves. I shouldn't have to point this out...

  150.  @draxgoodall3685  There is no way these last a year far less three. I would be surprised if they even lasted six months of daily use when there already are flip flops that fall apart after a few weeks. So I highly doubt these would last that long.

  151.  @draxgoodall3685  Or you could just not throw your old flip flops in the ocean and buy a quality product that comes in a million more shapes, colors and styles and lasts longer and feels better lol. The western world has proper waste management and throws its garbage in landfills. This is an issue for some Asian and African countries. Completely irrelevant for the West. Why should we even be funding research and product development for them if they don't care themselves is the question we should be asking. What really brings change is international pressure on reducing exports of such products or manufacturing matierals to these countries and on their governments to change policy. It's like the old adage teach a man to fish don't feed him. That's where I'm coming from anyways.

  155.  @owo4470  You would think so at face value. And for places with limited space like island nations for their landfills and so on that makes sense. But there was a interesting TED talk about this and apparently all the trash in the world over all of human modern history is only the size of one mountain or a portion of one. It was very fascinating how the speaker put it into perspective. Their aim was talking about how chemical pollution is more the issue. Maybe you can find it with a few terms in search.

  156.  @JunkBondTrader  Plastic is not a world problem it's a problem of underdeveloped countries without proper waste management. Especially ones that throw their garbage in the ocean. Otherwise it just goes in landfills like everything else. This isn't a hard concept to grasp. You would have a point if you referenced something that is widely used that does not go in landfills like the little plastic beads that used to be in soaps. But thankfully those were banned. That clearly is not 99% of the issue or focus whenever plastic is brought up as an issue. It's plastics in oceans. Everywhere else it's only an issue of people littering. It's absurd to cry about the nature of plastic in that issue it's irresponsible people. And the impact of that is extremely small compared to all the other environmental issues out there, it's not even worth mentioning or having a campaign to educate people to throw their trash away. It's such a minor issue.

  162.  @whatthesigmaW  You haven't the vaguest clue what you are talking about. There is virtually no impact on anything but the sandy ocean floor where almost nothing lives which has virtually zero impact environmentally beyond that sea floor. The sea floors role environmentally is being part of the carbon cycle which takes eons. Sediment falls and gets cycled under the tectonic plates and incorporated into the earth. This is how many of the metals we mine on land come from. You sound ridiculous. This is a revolutionary concept and a great resource the world needs and should be fully exploited. Modern society needs to run and this will help it run cheaply with virtually no harmful environmental impact and will in scale make these metals cheap.

  170. They will likely keep the Chinese Tesla market one step behind in technology so it is always beneficial to keep Tesla in China because the newest innovation from Tesla will always come faster from Tesla for the Chinese market than if they were to try shut Tesla down and try to steal and copy. Elon is not stupid. He is using China just as much if not more as China is using him. China knows it and doesn't care given the massive benefit Tesla's technology will bring straight from the source. The boring company and space X and other technology is likely also what they are after. Tesla can test their innovations quickly and bring to market fast for additional testing fast in China with their low regulations. Both of them know it and the benefits from that.

I never said landfills had no negatives I said they are the most ecologically friendly which they are. So once again another idiot with piss poor reading comprehension commenting to me. Also no in the West landfills in all countries as far as I know require liners to prevent runnoff and pollution beyond the site. Then they are covered. Everything in the landfill is essentially mummified. You comment and it's context as a reply is just absurd on so many levels.

Nor very much pollution to the local area far less global pollution as a whole. No we are dealing with almost completely ocean pollution as a global issue from consumer waste. Not land pollution from consumer waste aside from the cost of processing a few specific waste products such as batteries and components of computer waste which is another tangent. Industrial waste is an issue from all sources but is not the conversation.

  180. It's not a lot of manual labor to compost the banana. You throw it in a wood chipper and you put the mulch in a compost pile. Cut the bs lol. Also another easy option is turning it into biochar which increases crop health, yield, soil fertility, and water holding capacity. While also vastly decreasing the carbon footprint into the negative. Biochar can also be sold for profit, and be bought by locals to greatly improve soil fertility for their personal gardens to improve food security for the population on a personal basis which is huge. I thought this up in a matter of two seconds. I'm not even an expert in this field, come on this is pathetic all around. Oh ya and biochar is low tech and essentially free to do.
    1
  181.  @kiyoponnn  It's called biochar idiot. How can you be so utterly ignorant despite the term already being spoonfed to you and having access to the internet? Mind boggling. Biochar is produced at a completely different temperature than charcoal giving it a different structure for horticultural use. Making it does emit greenhouse gas dumdum but it sequesters over a dozen fold that amount of carbon which would have decomposed and been released through normal biological process regardless making a massive net reduction at scale if we are talking about using agricultural waste. You know like the majority of left over plant material that just sits on the field and rots releasing all that stored carbon. That alone could single handedly address the carbon issue while drastically improving soil fertility dumdum.

  183. This is totally propaganda and fiction. Las Vegas has had it's population double in the last decade yet its' water usage has been cut 30-50%. Secondly they purposefully lied and showed the lake mead reservoir from 2022 at it's lowest from like two decades of low rainfall. Well in a matter of one year it's now basically back at capacity. Same with reservoirs in California. So there is no foreseeable water issue and top that with the massive reduced water usage of the population this is all total lies in this documentary.
