It is more than just cleaning it up. it is taking trash and turning it into something useful, and then producing a product worth buying. The United States exports waste plastics to China back when they used to recycle it into plastic materials that are then sold to factories and then shipped back to the USA for you to buy at the store. It stopped recently, but that is because Chinese lawmakers think that recycling is beneath the dignity of China. It is a good baseline economic foundation for nations that are otherwise bankrupt of any other skill set. Waste management is important, and poor nations can use that as a way to boost their industries from the bottom. Scrap metal recycling is similar in this aspect. Africa likes to import scrap metal in the form of old ships to melt them down and resell the metal as newly refined. Some small nations make a pretty penny off of it.
@@markusschellenberg4684 that is their garbage, sure some is imported too but majority is theirs and they keep adding to it. Same as everyone else around the world
Makes more sense to me that some body got paid and the rest of the country got stuck with the trash, probably the case in every one of those countries.
The USA as a developed country should process its own garbage, instead of exporting it to other countries, especially third-world countries. P/s: I am referring to this video which said that America dumping/exporting their trashes into African continents.
As an US citizen I agree with you. I would also prefer if our country stayed out of all other countries governing, political, financial and warring problems. The US has a strong enough military that we can defend ourselves from most of not all attacks so let other countries do as they will. There are enough resources in the US to produce whatever is needed. Our citizens quality of life, financial and political concerns would be far better if we focused on ourselves rather than the rest of the world. I am all for stopping all exports and imports. Just my opinion, sure there are flaws in the idea, no solution is perfect.
We do recycling has been a thing here in Europe for well over a decade now. I have 3 bins to separate rubbish into. One is turned into fuel pellets somewhere nearby and the others turned back into whatever. Problem is they have found ways to tax us for every kind of waste they "don't like" or in other words can't profit from. Just you guys and China not signed up to any of the agreements / creating the most pollution. The US military burns more gas than 145 countries combined. Yet we pay taxes so you can continue its bs.

Theres really nothing new here. Plastic has been added into concrete for ages. Would love to hear how they combat microplastics in ground water when it wears in roads and pathways though.
She does the dirty job that most people would not want to do it. Her sincerity to help mankind is immeasurable. She deserves a global recognition for her inventive idea which could substantially reduce the harmful plastic waste and also create such an amazing brick.
None of this plastic is created by the consumer ,it's all created by the companies who are bottling these things in plastic, they can change to hemp products that would be at least be biodegradable
@Davro Tu recycling is fake it’s always been a lie !!! The only real thing you can recycle is metal and glass . Plastic isn’t recycling they just move it around the world or burn it in 99% of places. It’s to expensive and takes lots of chemicals to refine plastic causing more pollution . Ban plastic and use glass or metals .
@Davro Tu Hemp has been legal in many counties, for centuries. It was not banned ever, in some nations. Search for what it is used for in those places. You'll have a good idea of it's actual uses.

Wow. When she was showing the bricks I was thinking of big LEGO’s out of all the recycled plastic and people buying them to build tiny houses or backyard stuff. The bricks they made are beautiful.

@@markusschellenberg4684 yes! I so agree. So much! I love new ways to recycle but I have a chemical sensitivity and have noticed that polyesters made of recycled bottles really affect me.

@@lcarus42 "isolate" no isolated would be making plastic into memory boards for computers because those are not exposed to the elements and will not make microplastics.

@@insectbite1714 its not the final effort, its the start. Pessimist much? and a better word than isolate would be concentrate. It would at least get it out of the flowing rivers and put it out of the way for now. Until better solutions can be done.
I love how genuine her reaction was when they asked her how she felt when she made her first brick. You can tell how excited she was in answering it. I wish more countries implement this technology and use this on a larger scale. I know there are very small companies in the US doing this, but you never hear about them because it's not popular or just too expensive for now. It probably won't be until we run out of the raw materials that make regular bricks will we be forced to switch to using plastics as the raw materials. That being said, I hope Kenya paves the way towards this and proves to other countries that they're lagging behind.

I couldn’t fathom living with all that trash around me. It’s disheartening to see and really worrisome for the planet as a whole. All we do is continue to devour our resources. The human being is the most destructive organism to have ever been created.
I have ALWAYS said this! And my mom gets mad at me every time she’s always like “not all humans are” I’m like mom you don’t get what I’m saying! As a species, we are definitely the worst thing that could have ever happened to this planet. It’s sad we aren’t taught that from a young age so that children all over the world can develop better habits across the generations. But no, instead we’re taught this notion that we’re somehow above all the animals, insects, plants, etc and therefore it’s okay if others have to suffer due to our existence. Funny thing is, that notion will be exactly what kills our kind off, in the end. Clearly! Look at all that PLASTIC! 🥵

Imagine being so wasteful that you can't figure this out with thousands of scientists working to "tackle pollution", but a few hard workers in Africa can do it in 9 months.
Do you seriously believe that this "solution" will stop rich countries producing criminal amounts of waste and then sending it to poor countries. Because it is there, the problem.
@@padalan2504 Nobody should mix different plastics, heat then up and produce anything with that. Best toxic cocktail one can imagine. That's why we don't do that in our countries. We only re-use plastic when it is pure. And to draw a solution: We might stop sending plastics (new & used) all over the world. It's not helping society, it's destroying it.
@@markusschellenberg4684 But in fact we do do that, just not in places we want to look "pretty". Fence posts are made of recycled plastic mixture, so is any plastic or rubber construction component. The greyish or brownish plastics you can see all around is all recycled plastic mixture. You can see the little bits that failed to melt and mix when you cut the plastics open. Nobody's gonna expect anyone to eat from it, and it is not actually toxic by the virtue of its presence. We mow laws with plastic strings, but should be concerned about microparticles on the sidewalk next to it? No, we're just taking what we like, recycling things that can still look pretty and move the ugly out of sight. And it ends up in Africa where they have to actually solve the problem and not just talk about it. It's not like we wouldn't have the tech to resolve issues with it being toxic during production, it's about supply and demand, the wasteful approach of modern countries.
@@onism8906 trade deals are business terms usually made between rich and poor countries. The stronger nation, usually the west (and China in the last few decades) sets the terms as those in positions of power, where the weaker nation will trade in autonomy in production of the nations current or potential goods and services, valuable resources, ownership of land or resources, and/or government laws and regulations that favor the stronger nation. In exchange, the nation dictating the terms will give them money("aid"), products (food, clothing, cars), or build roads and infrastructure for them. This framework was set in place of colonialism, to ensure these nations never industrialize with their valuable resources, and become works competitors.

One is turned into fuel pellets somewhere nearby and the others turned back into whatever. Problem is they have found ways to tax us for every kind of waste they "don't like" or in other words can't profit from.
Just you guys and China not signed up to any of the agreements / creating the most pollution. The US military burns more gas than 145 countries combined. Yet we pay taxes so you can continue its bs. I'm sick of hearing about either of you telling everyone else we need to cut down.

None of this plastic is created by the consumer ,it's all created by the companies who are bottling these things in plastic, they can change to hemp products that would be at least be biodegradable
@Davro Tu Ok, then choose a different fiber. It doesn't have to be hemp or nothing
Yes Girlfriend! That's the real conversation.
@Davro Tu recycling is fake it’s always been a lie !!! The only real thing you can recycle is metal and glass . Plastic isn’t recycling they just move it around the world or burn it in 99% of places. It’s to expensive and takes lots of chemicals to refine plastic causing more pollution . Ban plastic and use glass or metals .
If hemp was going to save anything it would be used everywhere.
@Davro Tu Hemp has been legal in many counties, for centuries. It was not banned ever, in some nations. Search for what it is used for in those places. You'll have a good idea of it's actual uses.
She has very positive vibes!! God bless her
I'm so proud of her. She's such an inspiration. ❤❤

Wow. When she was showing the bricks I was thinking of big LEGO’s out of all the recycled plastic and people buying them to build tiny houses or backyard stuff. The bricks they made are beautiful.
In that case we rich westerners should keep our garbage to build our own houses with. I'ld rather have us reduce our consumption by 90% and continue to use healthy materials for housing and raising our children.
@@markusschellenberg4684 yes! I so agree. So much! I love new ways to recycle but I have a chemical sensitivity and have noticed that polyesters made of recycled bottles really affect me. There are a lot of plastics in general that affect me and I can’t have in my house. But it’s hard to avoid and things like dehumidifiers aren’t made to last 20 years like they used to. Its like stuff is made as if it’s disposable crap. And it’s all so much plastic and metal wasted. It’s insane.
Good for that young lady. She sees the bigger picture and is finding a solution to a major problem. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍
If other shops could easily copy this: That would be great.
It would speed up the garbage clean-up.
The more the plastics are recycle to make other products the more they will keep making plastic. Maybe we need to find a better material then plastic?
Well making plastic into bricks that are likely to get worn down and make microplastics will not actualy help.
@@insectbite1714 it would isolate it and would still clean up the rivers and oceans in comparison to what they are now.
@@lcarus42 "isolate" no isolated would be making plastic into memory boards for computers because those are not exposed to the elements and will not make microplastics. We should keep bricks the way they are because their original eco-friendly properties have not been replaced with plastic. We should *reduce* the range of items that are made out of plastic, *reuse* memory boards as they can be reused, and make them from *recycled* plastic where the manufacturers will buy in on it to be enviormentaly friendly for Samsungs new goals.
@@insectbite1714 its not the final effort, its the start. Pessimist much?
and a better word than isolate would be concentrate. It would at least get it out of the flowing rivers and put it out of the way for now. Until better solutions can be done.
Yes world need people like her. She is enthusiastic about her work and u cant defeat those kinda people. She will win for sure.
I love how genuine her reaction was when they asked her how she felt when she made her first brick. You can tell how excited she was in answering it.
I wish more countries implement this technology and use this on a larger scale. I know there are very small companies in the US doing this, but you never hear about them because it's not popular or just too expensive for now. It probably won't be until we run out of the raw materials that make regular bricks will we be forced to switch to using plastics as the raw materials. That being said, I hope Kenya paves the way towards this and proves to other countries that they're lagging behind.
🤞 She was amazing. Got to say I was shocked at what plastic waste has done to that river. In the preview I assumed it was a road that was being used to dump waste.

It is time to hold the companies that produce and distribute plastics accountable for what they sell.
why do we have Carbon Tax for simply breathing? it is stupid my breath does not hurt ocean

@@onism8906 trade deals are business terms usually made between rich and poor countries. The stronger nation, usually the west (and China in the last few decades) sets the terms as those in positions of power, where the weaker nation will trade in autonomy in production of the nations current or potential goods and services, valuable resources, ownership of land or resources, and/or government laws and regulations that favor the stronger nation. In exchange, the nation dictating the terms will give them money("aid"), products (food, clothing, cars), or build roads and infrastructure for them.
This framework was set in place of colonialism, to ensure these nations never industrialize with their valuable resources, and become works competitors.
