22 Inventions That Are Saving The Earth

Save the earth daw pero di kayang i off yung electric fan kapag di na ginagamit
There are 2 problems.
(1) lack support from Govt,Orgs, Companies.
(2) Govt,Orgs, Companies support it but sells it at higher price making it less accessible…
It would be sweet if you had links to each of the gadgets.
The best way to curb climate change?
Reduce greenhouse gases such as crude oil, natural gas, and coal.
How do we do that?
– Transition from materials like plastic to sustainable + eco-friendly ones like bamboo.
– Transition from fossil fuels for energy to renewable ones like solar, wind, and hydropower.
– Find solutions to minimize energy and resource waste around the globe.

Yes these are very helpful inventions. However, some are quite expensive.q
I am simply amazed by human ingenuity
if they ever sale these they should make them cheap because nobody is going to buy it if its expensive
Oh yes, while using the plastic free shampoo, get it wet and dont turn off the tap. Soo environmentally friendly.

Actually, in olden days, people brushed their teeth with salt.
I have done that when we've been in the hut and having forgot to buy toothpaste.
Salt is normally available in a large quantities in a carton package,
which compared to small quantities of toothpaste in a plastic tube
is fairly sustainable.
Adding mint flavour is no big deal. The trouble is adding fluoride.
(When I was young, there was a toothpaste called Dentosal (sal as in salt)
– in a plastic tube, oft course, which is not sustainable.
Technically just an industrialised version of brushing teeth with salt.)
Hi
Now the earth will last one day longer.
Even to this day water blobs remain the most pointless 'green' invention of them all. It's usually when you're outside that you need portable water but to consume it, you need to peel off the 'shell', touching it with your bare hands in the process and those are definitely not clean. Then there's also a method of transportation. Where do I keep a couple of blobs, in my backpack, squeezed between a tablet and a carton of milk I bought on my way home? Will they even survive there or will I have to scrape the algae-water goo off the insides of my bag? Can't I make water-and-agar balls at home instead of buying them somewhere outside? Can't I use my reusable water bottle instead, for crying out loud?
the human excrement was used way back in india early days and are being still used.
Thank you so much all behind this ideas…
can most of these creations are under the supervision of bill gates and dr evil fauci the purpose to destroy human?!!!
Gr e at
That's not how you save earth, those are great inventions, don't get me wrong, but most of the pollutants don't come from our day to day lives, they come from the same big companies as ever. And thanks to our consumerism state that won't stop unless those with money distribute their wealths to the "developing" countries.(countries whose underdevelopment is in direct interest of the transnational companies)
What does the cassav bag drink taste like
The plastic bottle strips feel like it could be hazardous for wildlife/young children n pets
It’s really mind blowing
Hmm
lmao useless efforts.
the edible water looks cool but i've heard it tastes horrible but i still want to try it lol
these are all really great ideas, but none of them are saving the earth. notice how many are about managing waste. Also the earth will be fine, should worry about saving humans.
This is great but too little too late. We're screwed.
Question: isn't feeding sea animals edibles made with sources outside of water rather harmful? Since it makes them develop a taste for those stuff & then get dependent on us, aren't we supposed to not feed birds and all? Or is it just a better alternative to plastic and still bad?
Tesla and Philip K Dick would have been proud
The ball water thing is stupid… How are you going to wrap that thing? To make it ready to sell it
Not good enugh 👎
This proves that no matter what political party you align to, neither is making any real changes are it's about the Corporations, over existence itself and quality of life. The Government is never going to value life, over power and greed. People got to come together and get out the comfort zone. Time to take the wheel.
I really think that packaging from seaweed is going to transform the plastic waste problem and loving all the decentralized renewable power solutions!!
we already have everthing, its just the government of our countries that don't wanna use these..

Love this
I'm sorry but how the hell do smokey stoves cause 1.5 MILLION deaths per year… That cannot be right.
