The Future of Fashion - Made from Mushrooms | Dan Widmaier | TED
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лип 2022
- Your closet is likely full of all kinds of materials -- leather, cotton, nylon and polyester, to name a few -- that contribute to fashion's sustainability crisis. Biomaterials investigator Dan Widmaier explains how we could look to nature for sustainable replacements for these much-used materials and introduces a leather alternative made from mushrooms that looks great and doesn't harm the environment. "We can make fashion sustainable, and we're going to do it with science," Widmaier says.

#TED #TEDTalks #mushrooms - Наука та технологія
this ted talk will go down as one of the most important in a few years. designers will eventually see the importance of such materials and see why this is the road the future of fashion will go towards. it's already happening. the future is already here. thank you for this TED TALK, the world needs to hear this
Imagine eating cultured meat wearing leather shoes. Now we need to get rid of mattress beds since sleeping bags, futons, hammocks, etc... give you more space when they "fold away". Our entire house can be made of fast folding origami tables / doors.
@@aoeu256 I'm hoping you're being satirical and if you are what point are you making?
One massive change in our fashion/agricultural practices that creates a lasting effect on our environment is nothing to scoff at. Minimizing leather production through use of cows does more good than harm so whats your problem?
Are you so obsessed with things remaining the same where every consumer product takes from the environment without giving back or preserving it in any meaningful way?
Get a grip, do some research, actually use your brain
or...
Shut tf up 👍✨

I am a Japanese teen and I think watching TED is one of the best ways to learn English quickly. Do you guys agree?
You're doing great buddy!
You get to learn a language while also learning interesting and innovative information from around the world and from different fields. ✨
Watching Ted definitely improved my English skills
You are on the right path
I was a Korean teen 9 years ago and this is how I learned English too!! Keep it ip!!
Keep it up! Im rooting for your english learning journey!
Fashion is not just about making yourself beautiful but also about making this planet beautiful and liveable for generations
I swear I’m intrigued. I guess I’ve to change my idea about fashion now: not just to look amazing but to make nature too look amazing for us all to live in
Thanks ones more 🙏
thankyou for bringing & reminding us more awareness to sustainble materials. because in this era, so many people still don't care about our earth
Thank you Dan for presenting this innovation. I wish I could help you.
Thank you for bringing more awareness to sustainable materials. Still to this day, many fashion houses still are not moving away from animal-based and petroleum-based materials due to costs in production and marketing, and this must change. LVMH even has their own production for exotic leathers.
Wearing dead animals is not fashionable, it is disgusting exploitation of animals and horrible for the environment. And you are not doing anyone a favor when you purchase faux leather products which are devastating for the environment. Plant-based leather is the only way to go, and I truly hope that consumers will realize it sooner and not later.
*Fungi-based leather
At first, I am thinking TED is on a downtrend with fashion and sponsored products.
After watching it, it really surprised me that this kind of material is real.
Why would you asume that a TED talk discussing fashion would be 'downtrending' its value? As the speaker mentioned, fashion is just as much a part of us as our desire to create art or music, its simply another avenue where function is now accesible so lets go beyond that and create, explore, make statements and design that which is an intrinsic part of our daily lives. Everything you wear, every clothing item pattern... is fashion. You may not be interested in fashion, thats totally fine but to immedietly dismiss it's very mention shows that you are really uninformed or unaware of how closely it coexists with human history and life.
Amazing journey of fashion design ergonomics!
Now I'm thinking to get a Ph.D. in material science!
The idea is amazing and hope it'll grow all over the world in the future
I literally love this guy! Damn good job Dan man!!!!
Bravo! This is exactly what is urgently needed,biomimicry,in fasion and all aspects
What a wonderful idea! I wanna have something like this in my home.
DAMM this is a good talk, this is what TED is all about
There are a brilliant ideas in front of us, only artist transform them to something wonderful with science's hand 👌
Great idea! Absolutely love it!
Please make it affordable for everone, not expensive af. Thx, the world.
Awesome material and awesome attitude developing hand in hand! 👍👍
Could be a good resource for Space Colonists? Ship it as "seeds" and grow as much as you like?
Thanks for sharing Dan. Mylo is an amazing and beautiful material 😍
Nature know best 💚
I'm speechless, it's just amazing 👏
Thank you to you and your wife 🌍✌️
Ultra Super Epic!!! WOWWWWW!!! Super thanks for sharing!!
We must protect this man at all costs...........
This is EXACTLY what I'm looking for
I'm working on a masters-level professional project titled "Building Sustainable Operational Model for SMEs in the Fashion Industry." I have to admit that this model is the most innovative I have seen in recent months.
"Fashion is not about yourself look beautiful, its also about making this planet beautiful and livable for generations"
Handbag Manufacturer from Asia here. USD 30 per square foot is 6-10x more expensive than normal Italian leather. How will they replace leather with that kind of price?
Amazing!
Where do I buy stonks in this?
Its really amazing 😮😮
Just Wow 🥳
Hook me up with a full mushroom wardrobe, I’m ready!!!
Remarkable person reading this.. It’s going to get better; all it is a season of opportunity to grow and be better than before. Challenging times are meant to strengthen us, not to break us. Success doesn’t define to what happened to us; it is how we choose to deal with our circumstances. The more you grow and develop as an incredible person as you are, the more things will change for the better. Forgive more (for you), be grateful for even the smallest things (we have it way better than someone else), choose love over ego, choose humility over ego (humility is strength), and finally, invest into new skills so that your future self will thank you. Our lives will change forever the more we grow. Be thankful for the challenges for we know something greater is coming. Love you always - Nathalie ✨❤️
This is not a current video -2022- is it? Was this uploaded "again" recently or.. ? Mushrooms as leather-like material has been around for a decade at least, great one tho :)
Wow. Mylo it is 👏🏾💯👏🏾
my hero
I’ll then make sure to wear my leather jacket until they grow me a new one out of mushrooms! 🍄❤️
One question. When is it going to be cheaper to buy than leather?
Probably when true scale happens, as per the typical pattern.
Yes I too know Paul stammons
Voltar pra comentar aqui quando eu adquirir meu primeiro produto feito de cogumelo.
I like the idea of a mushroom burial suit better
Also a Ted talk
Can't remember the name of it
Amazing stuff
..so distracted by his shirt being slightly too small! 😝
Actually incredible, give the poor cows a break!
Ill wear these,because I'm a "fungi"...
Paul stamets is into this the humble mushroom is a gift from nature
That shirt 🤌

30$ a square foot!!! This guy has to be joking. Normal calf leather costs around 2.25$ per square foot. That’s fleecing under the eye of sustainability!!!
When he says, those mycelium are eating leftover sawdust ................. I am still wondering, from where so much of sawdust will come to feed these mushrooms on a factory level ??? Cut more trees, Grow more trees.....???
You say
Does these mycelium teleport you across the galaxy?

Whatever material you find... It wont be sustainable until we change the foundations of all industries: Sustainability and hyper productivity are mutually exclusive
Random person :
Oh nice shirt what material is that it looks nice can I feel it
Me : uhm kakis
အာပေးနေပါတယ်
I think it's a very impressive work that he shows here, but my problem is the notion that "wanting more and more" is human nature. No dude, it's not human nature, it's capitalism.
It is definitely normal.
I can see the day the cotton fields will be returned to the wild
and animals won't have to be shaved for their wool (or flesh).
To talk about fashion and do the presentation with a shirt from the stalls.. How cool!🤣
🤣🤣🤣
@@Dimitris_Balf fashioned police
Firee
At $30 a square foot I feel like it doesn't matter how sustainable it is if nobody can afford it
Meanwhile this shirt is A1
2:46 Thank the lord they put "made by humans" on the tag lmao
Gigachad
yeah, talking about fashion... this shirt is a no go
Just think of it one day there may not be the slaughter of any animals, for their leather!!! we may all be wearing mushroom leather!!! Mine clothing will have to be all Violet/Purple and I'm Vegan All The Way!!! What A Hoot!!!
Okay look, I absolutely love the idea of mushroom leather and sustainable fashion
But come on with those big name brands!
I have never been able to afford an Adidas shoe in my life. Ditto for Lululemon and all the other brands he's mentioned. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the bulk of society is more in the Walmart price range. How is this going to help global climate change if it's only affordable to like 10% of the population?
🇧🇷
good, we still need to consume less clothes though
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🥂✨
Thank you for your report.
👏👏👏👏👏..... 👍✨
Too expensive. It has to find a good cost balance for that to have a bigger impact to the society and environment.
When the demand is higher and there are more producers it will be affordable.

Very good--- but Mister Nerd, sir, leather is just a byproduct of dead cows we bred for food.
Impossible Burger, Beyond Meat, Boca, and others have created fake meat that tastes good, but is ironically more expensive than real beef, and some or all of these fake meats are arguably not optimum nutrition.
The challenge, Mr. Nerd, is to take the next step and make slaughtering animals unnecessary, and also less expensive. It seems like it should be easy since growing cattle means creating bones, hooves, horns and other parts that are useful only to the cow.
Thank you for your efforts.
🍄>>>🐄
Am I the only person who felt like either him or I is saying adidas wrong!
I would have recommended mushrooms first and saved you 6 years I guess.
Too bad I'm trapped in poverty
because TN is a Rube Goldberg eugenics machine
Describing TN this way makes more sense than it should :(
I want this leather for my partner. He wants to make his own wallet.
I make hats out of hoof fungus
Get too selling
@@Island_Bag you want a trilby or fedora?
Cough and 🤕 sneeze
Fun fact: coming last is harder than coming first
Interesting, how much water it consumes to produce a meter square of material? Personally I think the future of fashion must be SLOW. Fast fashion need to die and we need a self expression revolution to make it happen
I hate to burst your bubble, but both silk and leather ARE natural materials.

. Lucky bones
how about spider web?

Can I eat my wallet and will I get high
Only one way to find outtt 🤷♂️
wi..w “wonderful” wife
Isn't leather a byproduct tho? If we're using livestock for their meat we may as well use the leather.
The last of us really doesn't help this case.
Cows have hundreds if not thousands of byproduct uses, leather being 1 of them. We don't raise cattle only for the leather. The mushroom work is great, and we should continue to explore ways to produce the goods we need, but comparing mushrooms to cows is far worse than apples to oranges comparisons.
EPIC! Glad I saw this at the begging. Thanks to @mycoworks
I keep on getting $45,000 every week from a new platform in town which Elon recommends
After I got upto 300K trading with Mrs Valerie Anne Yarvin.I bought a new House and I'm now able to send my kids to a better school in the states thanks to Mrs Angela Cole Carr. When someone is straight forward with what he or she is doing people will always speak up for them.
Her good reputation already speaks for her last month i invested over $100,000 with her and I've already made over $250,000 profit.
How can I make a successful investment in stocks and profitable trades?? I’m thinking of Mrs Valerie 😏 and suggestions🤷
She's awesome, perfect and a genius. I've made up T0 $162,050 trading.
How can I get in touch with her I’m in need of her assistance
One thing's for sure, they'll never replace the animals. There's nothing worth eating in them. While they're nice to eat, you'll never be able to live on them while you can live on meat.
I've been living for a decent while now and I still haven't eaten meat...
This guy just throwing out key phrases/terms.
This sounds interesting but renewable energies require non-renewable materials used to make very specific bits of equipment that generally can't be repaired and require massive energy input to make (wind farms and the electronics in it, once these break, they break).
Renewable materials, these materials are made from something and converting a material requires energy. The benefit to natural materials it's using natural processes but wanting to scale this into large scale to replace leather....isn't going to be sustainable.
Cows provide food as well as clothing. The resources needed to create factories and put energy into making these mushroom farms won't be the saving grace this man thinks, and is leading others to think it is.
Save yourself 6 years. Don't eat bugs.
