I know this sounds kinda weird but I want to learn about sustainable mushroom farms! Also maybe a eco friendly/vegan cooking video. Just anything about how food gets to us is awesome. Oh and learning about sustainable architecture is super cool. Maybe learning about our ecosystems and doing our part to keeping them safe... you know at this point do whatever your adventure takes you and I'll gladly watch.
Could you make any video about Soapnut? Its Indonesian's indigenous alternative to conventional detergent. It would be amazing to see you discuss about it🙏😊
I had no idea about notpla. This is such an exciting and innovative alternative to plastic. Can't wait to see it become used worldwide someday, hopefully.
It’s great to see companies working on the packaging issue, great video! I’d love to see more places make composting available so all these great products have a proper disposal path.
I'm from India, and the problem of plastic is huge even in my locality. I'd like to collaborate with them on commercial level, maybe try to replicate their model. It would be a great help if you can get us in touch. Great work. Thanks.
Thank you for your message! They are still in very early stages in the UK so once it is at commercial scale they may also start developing in India. Keep up to date on their website
I'm working on the project and as we speak in in contact with the govt of India to solve a problem that's quite pivotal here. Whosoever wants to connect, let's do something about it. 🙂
It's very interesting approaching that resolve three problem: an alternative source of plastics from fossil ones, the increasing of seaweeds, the plastics pollution. However there are three problems. How do they eliminate the iodine inside the seaweeds to avoid the formation of alkyl iodide during the polymeric process without iodine compounds pollution? (In 18th the seaweeds oxidation by sulfuric acid produced fertilizer and it caused the iodine discovery.) This seaweeds plastic is biodegradable in three weeks so how can it be used in food packaging? If it is edible for humans, it is edible for insects so the integrity of food packages is not certain nor guaranteed, and I thing they must separate the food from outside things for noun, hygiene and people health. I don't believe you wash package before boiling with spaghetti.
It's a bit complicated to explain and it's an easy google away. But yes, if stored properly it can easily last a month, but after that the package will have issues. And it isn't an sturdy material at all, if you're careless you'll ruin it if mishandled. Other than that, it's a good alternative for some short lived food packaging.
Wait. Is turning seaweed to plastic a new innovation? I thought it's where plastics came from. Because we have a factory here named CP Kelco and what I heard from asking others is that they made ingredients for making gelatin and other stuff and also plastics. Never did my own research though to see if it's true. But yes, I rlly thought that seaweeds were already an ingredient in making plastic.
It is a gimmicky alternative that could help a bit, until it becomes mass produced and adds to the environmental damage unless they start their own farms separated from nature and inland. Otherwise you'd have to ship the algae. Oh and it won't work on food that needs a void seal or that lasts long, as it will easily degrade when it isn't stashed properly and it's easily damaged. Cool neat idea otherwise, and it will save some polluting.
I'm from India, whenever I see people throwing plastics around me, I get upset and frustrated. If this seaweed material is used instead of plastics, that would be very helpful to Our Mother Earth 🌍. Does this seaweed material decompose?
Did you know Agar-agar is a gelatin alternative to other gelatin that is generally made out of bones. Making a "plastic" type product from Seaweed, or in other words Agar-agar is a no brainer but is definitely not a new concept or invention, it's more begs the question "how can we use gelatin as a plastic alternative".
Hello dear Norpla. I found out about you not so long ago and I want to find your contacts, but I can't! I was insanely interested in this idea!!! I ask you to contact me for cooperation!! if you know how to contact the manufacturer, please help me
We hope you all enjoy this video! We had so much fun exploring the factory. If you have any video suggestions let us know!
Could you show how farmers are trying to adapt to more sustainable and regenerative practices? That would be a cool video to watch!

@@maxwellfarr3212 this sounds like a great idea! We shall look into projects which could show this
@@christianrolle2548 amazing suggestions, thank you! There are some really interesting food projects we have lined up soon 😊

This is so awesome!!! It should be more widely known!

It’s amazing!!

Yes 🙌🙌💚
this needs more recognition
Yes!
I've always wanted to try those water pod things, it's cool to meet the inventor and see their other uses. Thanks for another amazing vid!!
Thank you for supporting our videos! 😄
You are helping earth ❤
Thank you!!
Hope this catches on and you have a successful IPO. Keep up the good work.

Ayush Agarwal it's available in India
@@blueeyedhunk456 hi I'm only doing that project if you interested on same sure we can connect
Ayush, let's connect on this!

great video! i tried it once! really cool
Thank you!!
I inquire about how this type of packaging is not still available widely and commercially.
This is incredible. So innovative and vital
Yes 🙌
Thank you for this contribution!
Thank you!
Any idea how can people support this company?
Sharing their solutions with any food companies/ events/ stadiums you know is a great way 🙌
How should I do my holiday homework with that?!
Let’s see how long this innovation takes to get to America.
rly love your channel!!!!!! :)
Thank you so much! 💚
nice make videos like these somebody willl be there who will get inspired one day
Excellent keep IT going
And for the price ? You may be interested to produce this product in Morocco, near shoring platform near to Europe with many advantages
If pakiging plastic removed with bio then most plastic use will be end good for environment
Love from INDIA
Thank you!
Truly Genius 😃
Yes!!
Can someone explain why it holds liquid without “biodegrading” before you use the product?
It has a 6 week shelf life
It's a bit complicated to explain and it's an easy google away.

Which seaweed algae is best for this?

Plastic pollution In the Phillipines is really dangerous and the government is giving a blind eye in the problem
Hopefully notpla can go global!
