one of the biggest ways to reduce the trash problem - reduce waste. this may mean using reusable shopping bags (like cloth) for groceries, random other stuff. (this will reduce or get rid of the need of plastic bags at stores). doing things like buying reusable water bottles/mugs for hot drinks (so there will be less waste from starbucks/tims/McDonald coffee cups. there is so many ways that we can greatly reduce our waste. I don't know if we will ever get to 0% waste, but we can definitely work at reducing waste, recycling and reusing stuff as much as possible, etc.
@Carldawgh I install energy management systems and it has me buying supplies from electrical, plumbing and air conditioning wholesalers. Last year I was looking for some brass compression fittings for a job and was having a hard time finding them. I went to my last option supplier who always charges more but always has what I need. He said I wish you were here last week. He then told me he took a whole truck load of the fittings I need to the dump. I asked why he would do that. He said if it sits on the shelf more than a year he has to factor the cost of having a guy inventory it and pay the the taxes on it. He said they got audited by the IRS and they went thru the warehouse and figured out how much of their inventory was more than a year old and they were fined and required to pay taxes on it. Since then I have realized everyone my company does business with is throwing perfectly good brand new parts in the trash at the end of their fiscal year to avoid the wrath of the IRS. It would be much better for companies to be allowed to pay taxes on their parts when they are sold. Years ago I would go to my suppliers and buy most things right off the shelf. Now it all has to be ordered. Now I understand why.
I got an idea to add to ways of solving the problem - learn to restrain and refrain ourselves from dumping trash into the ocean, other water ways and everywhere on land. Hm, I guess that means it would require some EFFORT on the part of each person to take responsibility for every single thing they consume and what's left afterward. It's a novel idea, I know, but I think it's one worth doing. And yes, I recycle everything I can - you name it, I recycle it. What I have left behind could easily be incinerated and would become as you pointed out, energy to run the whole operation. We all need to take individual responsibility for every action we do on this planet and if you're not recycling everything you can and searching for ways to continue to be good stewards of this planet that gives us life, then you're contributing to the problem.
It's hard to control a large population to stop them from littering. Our law system cant even stop horrendous crimes, what makes you think that they can control how people dispose of garbage. The change needs to happen within industries. Im sure that the billionaires or small businesses dont want the earth to be filled with garbage, so why arent the making a change?
I think waste is actually not waste but as u said its like A FUEL or a source of energy which is unsorted and in a kind of bad condition. If we can make a portable sorter to get the material out of landfill to our stations then we can actually reuse and process it . And innovation is always there to help us out.
Hello TH-cam. The world garbage problem I think is caused by a misunderstanding that Earth is our life support system rather than something we just keep taking resources from. I've researched the global waste problem and have found some internet articles/documentaries stating it's really bad and others saying the problem is being solved. Here's some ideas, some may be good others dumb, I'm no expert. 1. Lasers- millions of degrees (example National Ignition Facility USA 10 Million degrees Celsius), could vaporize any waste type? 2. Nuclear fusion reactors- also really hot, waste could be put in a metal box then put in a chamber above to equalize pressure and dropped into plasma (Tokamak type) 3. Acids- some are really strong and can dissolve metals 4. Underground nuclear/thermobaric/napalm weapon explosions (huge pits could be dug, filled, covered and bomb exploded) 5. Volcanoes (put in metal container to sink before melting) 6. Collision-Vaporization (Sandia Laboratory conducted a test where a plane was slammed into a concrete wall at 700 mph and vaporized on impact, maybe a cone-shaped container accelerated to high speeds could be vaporized along with waste contents?) 7. Deep borehole disposal (Soviet Union dug Kola Superdeep Borehole, several miles depth, maybe more could be dug in remote areas?) 8. Suborbital space container reentry vaporization- capsule (metal no heat shield) shot into suborbital trajectory via rocket could reenter atmosphere and be vaporized along with waste 9. Lightning rods (lightning turns sand into glass), maybe waste piled around one could be vaporized? 10. Capsule storage (landfill alternative until technologies get better- giant concrete/metal/plastic capsules could be used for storage and stacked, no leachate leaks like landfills?) 11. Trash tanks- similar to oil terminals- big tanks where waste could decompose and leachate could be contained? 12.'Macrowave' (like microwave only bigger- heat device used to fry waste?) 13. Solar tower- sunlight used to fry waste (similar to solar tower energy), vaporizing it (or via satellite mirror for more heat)? 14. Better landfills (meantime before better tech is developed)- metal/concrete/plastic/glass liners to avoid pollution from leachate? 15. Nanomite consumption The global waste problem is solvable I think like most issues. It needs to be soon since our population is rising and making more waste. Some things like Zero-Waste Recycling, Trash-Energy systems and Plasma Gasification show promise. Also reducing global population along with our material-loving culture may help. Lets stop trashing the Earth.
You're right, but that's a hard pill to swallow for a lot of people. It is clear that the planet is over populated. Some people think that the human population should be no larger than 500,000 world wide. I think that's a bit low, but a good number to have on each continent. This would solve more than just the trash issue. There would be no hunger, we would not be forcing other creatures into extinction and global warming would only happen because of a natural event.
Thank you for this innovative idea .please try to implement this on our society.This idea can also done in India.As a civil engineer in my sight of recylcling the plastic waste,we can make it to the compressed boxes called "plastic bricks".it can also be used for construction purpose by coating hard refractories on them.
I'm working on a vlog right now that covers part of the solution up front... I discovered a fashion corporation that throws thousands of pounds of clothing & purses into landfills. I'm hoping to convince them through SHAMING that they could donate these products (or recover the fibers) instead. Reduce & re-use are the best IMHO.
Thinking about it, most trash we generate is plastic and all kinds of it. Most "trash" really isn't if it is properly sorted out. Food should be composted. Ban all small packages and favor big packages and reusable containers that can be washed as well.
Why focus on processing it? Why not focus on reducing it? In my mind the IRS promotes a massive amount of landfill by their inventory rules. We need to quite leaning on consumption to stimulate the economy. Eventually a heavy price will be paid.
But the Climate Progressives think any kind of high density fuel or combustion is evil so the actual solutions are often buried under a near religious rhetoric of " climate change. "
It does impose a major issue for the environment because the exhaust produces harmful pollutants that are carcinogens for the people living near these facilities. Do your research.
@@684avatar why are you relying on them? Just go and shop from Bulk stores? when te stores that cary the plastic crap sees everyone is going elsewhere they will naturally turn because they will lose money
I think our modern way of wasteful living can be reversed, however people aren't willing to give up luxuries. I think for efficient ways of processing trash are necessary to sustain life for us and preserve life on our planet. Biodegradables are great but we still have a plastic crisis that needs to be taken care of.
dig a hole near the earth's core - not throught the crust but so its very hot, build a system to drop waste into that hole where it will combust and the prodcuts can be stored.
thats quite expensive and burning waste produces way more greenhouse gasses than just letting it sit in landfill does, all your doing is making a very expensive method to free up land
I think there needs to be a far greater push to educate the public both in waste and energy (because there is also energy waste) and their roles in climate change. Along side better systems for landfill sorting and strict regulations for people and business to sort at the source. If you're to lazy to sort your waste into the correct recycling bin's leaving someone else to have to deal with that then you should have to pay for it.
We should continue to educate our future the proper way to solve problems. Showing them the importance of life it self. To over come all issues we currently have around the world. Giving everyone the opportunity to be responsible and respectful to our future on earth and beyond.
Hold up there... cross me off the list for 2012-2016 I only made 3-4 bags of garbage a year... about 10 bags total. I did not make 3,000 pounds of garbage (which is about the weight of a car... or 2). I DID IT BABY!!!
I think each family should have a consuming limit each year.When it comes to things that are not biodegradable.Like maybe for each pair of shoes swipe a card that would keep account.Maybe then we would by what we actually need.Just a thought
Plastics, even the low grade ones that can't be recycled (such as the ones used in items such as plastic films, drinking straws and plastic cutlery) can actually be shredded and then melted to produce an alternative to bitumen for use in road surfacing. This means that less oil has to be extracted to obtain the bitumen, and the plastic isn't going into the oceans or being burnt.
Make editable packaging that reconstutes in boiling water! Soya Bean Plastic bottles that desolve in water & a packet of added bacteria! Actually eating leftovers!
I think it has to start with individuals. We can’t wait for the government to make changes/laws nor can we wait for scientists to come up with solutions. Yes that will help with the problem we’ve already created but we(individuals) have to be the first ones to take action. The first step is CONSUME LESS. Be mindful is what your purchasing. Think ahead of how the the packaging of what your buying will be disposed of. If consumers stop buying products packaged in plastic and demand biodegradable alternatives the seller will meet that need. It’s the supply and demand system that speaks louder than any government official. We can’t passively wait for the government to make changes. With that said I am constantly frustrated at the store trying to find and buy products not packaged in plastic. Sometimes it’s impossible to get around it. But if more and more people speak up about it or just stop buying products in plastic our voices can be heard. Using reusable bags is another great option. It takes some effort in the beginning to remember to take the bags but it soon becomes routine. These are only a few small things compared to a huge problem but a lot of small changes can add up to a huge difference. I really like this video btw! It is encouraging to learn that there is research and effort going into coming up with a solution for the mess we have in front of us. Finland is such an awesome country. I love that place. America could learn a lot from Finland!
excellent video, well we in india are facing this never ending problem, i wish that the landfills are taken into giant compactors and hardened and a sheet of rubber is placed placed over them and then their cutouts in various forms are used along highways as markers or signboards
by using our technique called biodynamics waste (treatment all kinds of wastes) using thermal cracking methods for zero landfill waste, this BDW is reversible technique means we can recycle waste and say goodbye to the old landfills.
If we made everything from the hemp plant we could essentially stop the need for trees since you can make paper , plastic and even hempcrete for buildings ! Hemp only takes around 8-12 months to harvest , trees take decades ...the solution is simple .. it’s just getting it into mass production and making it cheaper than the big oil companies .
Although I always see a strong connection between environmental issues and the so-called connectivity revolution 4.0, it is not so easy to find good examples on the Internet to show this. The video from 01:00 min to 01:40 min has a good example of the need for BIM, digital twin, IoT (IIoT to be exact), Smartgrid, Smart cities, etc, for a sanitation infrastructure project to Helsink city. The rest of the video also shows the innovation and cutting-edge technology needed to have a sustainable lifestyle for the next generations.
The answer is very simple and we could easily do it but its people that aren't. Most people nowadays do things only if it benefits them or maybe I'm wrong and they're just lost not knowing these kinds of problems exist or have no idea how to fix it
Sub molecular particle acceleration by turning the trash into something else at a sub molecular level by rearranging the protons neutrons and electrons using a supercomputer to do it and knowing the process we can turn garbage into something of value
Essentially most things can be turned into a hydrocarbon fuel. We don't need to keep returning energy to the grid if the grid already runs on high density fuels. We could even be using synthetic fuels such as gasoline from air, syngas from landfil, syngas from bio mass to be powering our vehicles. A way more efficient use of reclaimed fuels.
There are so many things we could do. For example I heard of a design made by a european college student of an isolated area where currents would bring trash into. Or maybe one day we will be able to recycle everything that we throw away today. We can also follow into the footsteps of hawaii and some european nations and ban plastic bags. We can make it a national law for every building (house, office, store, restruant) to have recycling bins. These are just some thoughts, I am sure there are so much more.
create a matter manipulation and assembly device,a device that'll strip the trash into it's atomic component and allows for the reassembly into something else entirely. trash into gold if need be.
If all packaging was made of compostable non-toxic materials, the creation of landfills was replaced with the creation of composting centers, and all trash cans and recycling bins were replaced with compost collection vessels, throwing away trash that doesn't effect the planet negatively would be as easy as putting your trash in a garbage can. The main flaw with this plan is that it would be very difficult to change everything we produce into compostable products. Batteries would be difficult to make compostable.
I think trash wouldn’t just gonna dissappear. It should be recycled over and over, and turn it into a good thing. We need a proper waste management in the philippines. That’s why maybe i could be able to help our country. Anw thanks for this info.
Pass laws that prevent companies from producing packaging that is not environmentally friendly and have the products returned to the company that created it rather than throwing it in a bin so they are forced to think of better ways. Give grants and initiatives to small businesses to produce better alternatives.
Aside from what's already been said about the fuel needed to launch the rocket (which is staggeringly expensive -- ask NASA) there's something else to consider: resource erosion. As 7 billion people becomes 14 billion, then 28 billion, and so on, and we just keep dumping the waste in the sun, the source material disappears and we get nothing back. Better by far to encourage people to switch to materials that can more easily break down and be reprocessed.
First problem. “Synthetic waste converter” 2nd law of thermodynamics. It can assist in energizing this system, but that’s it. It cannot power all that and other things. If it was that easy it would already be used.
Since most waste is recyclable anyway, I think we need to hire teams of people to separate and take all the recyclable items from the landfills to reduce the amount of waste that's just sitting there. Of course they would need some sort of safety suit but there's no reason this couldn't be done with the technology that we already have.
excellent question and while I'm really not all informed on financial things, I do know that companies will pay for recyclable goods to make their products from so I'm guessing some of their pay would come from that. What do you think?
To separate the trash is the best form to recycle, on a country like México (where i live) we need to put the garbage on different color bags as Canada.And create different forms to pay the recycle ♻️ make the population aware
The 3 Rs .. Reduced ,Reuse, Recycle .. get stuff from donation or donate or buy second hand, barrow etc.. anything but buying !! Buying means only usage for short time n back in landfill
i don't think plastic bags are super necessary.. but in the "rush" of the day, they may pile up... could we get more serious about "trash art" .. and then use that to passively educate ? .. because personally waste management videos are sometimes overwhelming and stressful when you watch them alone, lol.
I think if everyone picked up at least enough trash as they had produced then everyone would also see how serious the problem is, and not only would the current mess be picked up we would collectively stop making one.
I think people forget about the bigger problem because we don't live directly in it. Live over seas for any amount of time and you will see that the conditions that people live in are some what different and hard to believe. If it was us, we would then be concern and take notice. It's sad that we need to actually be living in it to be aware of it...
Like our other waste problems of gas and driving and shipping scrap, a redesign of cities and subdivisions is necessary. Bulk local storage of food in markets allows easy access to unpackaged foods and drinks as needed. Localized stuff distributors would easily allow no packaging. But all this would not be as "fun" for humans who are trained to think they are at the center of a universe without meaning. Also these things wouldn't make more money short term . Money isn't bad as a representation of goods and services. The idea that life is not an interconnected web of sacred bond is driving dissociated self absorption into immediate harvest of all goods with no thought to future harvests of goods, education and human life.
Plasma gasification is the way to go, and also special landfills that collect the methane gas, and once depleted, the intert garbage will be put in the gasifier and turned to slag and gasses. This can then be used as construction material. Methane from garbage should be collected and used to burn the garbage itself, in special environment friendly incinerators.
If we make it we should be able to recycle it. If not then shred it to the smallest piece possible, then if we have to put into a landfill it will not take a million years to decompose. In heavy water from nuclear plant we can turn in to class blocks like by using process of making glass. If it breaks it does not enter the drinking water supply.
Well i like the tube idea...and since its already being sorted why not send it straight to a recycling plant where 24 hours a day you could have workers double checking the sorting for proper recycling of the waste,
We can make a online shopping app in which we sale and collect many dialy life using products which are reusable, biodegradable and renewable means fully environment friendly and we can make people aware about perchacing this type of products
Large companies as Coca Cola, Nestle, P&G, etc. That are responsible for most part of the containers we use, should be responsible to create a re usable chain for those containers in all the countries they operate. Their supply chain, should contain the responsible waste control of their containers. Goverments needs to work locally with them.
The solutions is to return the products that we don't use anymore or products that are broken to the companies where the products were produced, in that way the companies will recover important materials to be reused or recycled or use parts to make new product , in this way the companies will need to change the mentality about create product that not just end up in the landfills , it is time in Not just create products that only make money and that's it ! -let's say a bottle of shampoo "trademark X" from the company "Y", it is empty now!, Instead to throw away the bottle into the trash container, better returned to the factory or company where it was produced. Then in this way the plastic bottle won't be wasted uselessly in a landfill. -let's say an automobile "trademark X" also once that it is not useful anymore, it should be returned back to the company where it was produced, they should know how to handle all the materials or parts from an expired automobile, they must to be able to recover material and other parts, in this way in the future they will need to produce automobiles with the mentality to reuse the material to build new automobiles. -and so on: clothes, furnitures, plastic bags, electro domestic, soda cans , toys , mobile phones , tires, computers, airplanes, space rockets, bikes, weapons, satellites ,etc....All the products that have been created and if they are not useful anymore or they have finished their utility purpose, they should be returned to the companies who create them, because companies are just creating the products with the vision to make profit without thinking what is going to happen to the product once it has cover its purpose...this is a miscalculation of the industrial revolution that is affecting our present and the future.
there is equipment that turns plastic into oil and flammable gas. it is inexpensive. A liter of gas from garbage costs a few cents. Therefore, this is not garbage but useful resources.
In the near future every city will have an autonomus vehicle system. A closed number of vehicles driving autonomusly through the city.The user will reserve a vehicle that will arrive at the designated time to pick up the user. The same goes for waste, a closed number of bottles / cans will run through the system with the ability of adding a bottle/ can only when the product had reached the end of its life.
Even gasification has environmental issues. There's a gasification plant on the Isle of Wight, in England, and it's breached specified limits for dioxin emissions on a number of occasions.
hey every problem has a solution. firstly, government should tell the manufacture to stop making plastic bottles. if those company pay big taxes and government are happy about it. then it is not cool. there are many other ways the government collect good taxes. Hence, what i am saying is this ,, we need to protect our planet.
I don't think you're evil. It's very unselfish to think about all life, rather than just your own or that of your fellow humans. What you suggest does sound reasonable. I have watched almost all of the show Revolution and I like it. Another show you might like is on Netflix. It's called Jericho. All episodes.
Or... Lava! Put all the junk into a lava pit! But then before we do that we need machine to sort of its trash or or recyclable. It would take tons out of land fills!
Build a power plant by the ocean kinda like fukashima but instead of it being powered by nuclear, its powered by trash. Trash is fed into giant blast furnaces, gases go through filtration and or transformation process until it safe. the high heat generated by the system turns sea water into steam/ impurities and salt, steam powers corrosion resistant turbines, turns back into desalinated water that either power dynomos for direct electricity or crank giant water pump to route water up into a resavuar lake for back up power generation. trash is elliminated, power is obtained. fresh water is produced people survive on this planet.
My suggestions is simple ..we bury the thrash and covered it with a mud at an average height laminating or pressed carefully. .and then what..its simple the land should not be wasted just because we buried garbage..we put solar farm on top of it or maybe green houses for environmental balanced. .or perhaps there is a system too that we could trapped methane gas as well by creating some room for the gas too be filled in..and offcos this will involves scientific installation. .
Make a smart material that can eat the trash, making itself larger and using that material for something useful. This material could become anything on the periodic table making it useful.
Encourage manufacturers to make products that are rebuildable. Such as changing a sim card or ic chip to upgrade their product. Give a lower tarif or tax to companies that keep their product out of recycling the longest. Send outdated products to lower wage countries to encourage its reuse. Source out parts in electronics like they do with car parts.
getting people to understand new doesn't mean better, you can relove what you have by fixing it and taking care of it, something new may be $1200 and a repair is $350 bit people see the warranty with the new. some how we have to change that thinking to you can get more years out of that $350
There are some interesting, and cool ideas here. But with the part where you suggest the plasma - gas process could output energy to the grid, are you not stepping into the perpetual motion/free energy space? Or is this more of a "If we put enough fuel in, we'll get more energy than we need to run the system, and the excess can be used for output" type of situation?
Jewish Music Toronto I thought that too at first, but I think the energy comes from the chemical energy stored in the trash. The products wouldn't have as much chemical energy afterward.
Idk if this will work but sounds like a good idea. You know how in metal junkyards they have those big magnets that pick up the metal. Maybe in a landfill they can have a big static electrcity magnet that picks up the plastic. You know how a balloon will stick to you. Kind of the same concept
Democracy and Capitalism - meaning allowing free minds to address the problem from a solution/profit angle (and don't forge ego - a great motivator); if the government IS involved, then it would be in setting goals (such as waste-free products) and offering rewards (such as funds for initiating the solution)... a new world philosophy is needed, too - a paradigm shift in thinking...
Numi Who I agree that people need to think differently on the matter, but it would be mush easier to make a system in which it is easy to not pollute the earth than to change every single person's philosophy
Adopting thorough system of recycling and sorting system, and government subsidy to all countries, and prohibition mixed waste disposal recyclable materials with non-recyclables is the solution
How about putting waste in acid that will break it down to nothing? Would that be possible? Would it be harmful? Would it be practical? Let me know plz! Ive been thinking about this for a while and I want to know peoples opinions on my method!
Acid doesn't break down materials into "nothing". The waste will just be corroded by acid and change either its state or form due to the reaction. It may be a gas, liquid or solid even...You might just have waste in sludge form instead, whilst also polluting the air with toxic waste in gaseous form.
I think it a kind of impractical way to stop using plastics although it's d best I must say. But even if we do , d landfills filled with plastic need to be cleaned and I think d a way is to use dem fr ur benefit
There is no way to remove all waste so if that was the case I'd go with TeribblePuddle's idea of destroying humans, what should be done is find a way to generate less waste in food and item packaging, If we reduced all plastic packaging even only by 30%, I'm sure that would make a phenomenal difference in the amount of trash in land fills, instead of putting everything in plastic, more grocery stores should sell things by ounce to encourage you to bring a durable container like Whole foods
zero waste is where we need to be heading. most plastic we use is single use plastic - packaging and crap we just immediately throw away. except there really is no "away". we need more bulk grocery stores and options to buy without so much wasteful packaging. shop at the farmers market. stop buying plastic and synthetics (think wood, metals, cotton, wool, etc.). we need to punish corporations who create the most waste and wasteful products via taxes and fees, and incentivize businesses to work toward zero waste operations and manufacturing/packaging options. we also need to make lobbying illegal so these mega-corporations can't just buy out politicians and continue to pollute and poison and trash the earth. in addition, people in communities need to step up and start composting, reusing, borrowing, sharing, etc. the main part of the issue is our consumption habits. we are a consumer-driven, throw away culture. products are made cheap and break, get thrown away and then we have to buy new ones. its a major systemic issue that involves many moving parts.
Yes I can solve the problem.i have great ideas. I m a student of environmental science nd I love my earth.bt I have no platform to tell or show my project to the world.
I would convince everyone to have compost bins and then convince them all to get recycle bins and then get them to reuse the things they think could be used for something or used to build something
Wow January you can solve this problem looking for the nearest active volcano and jumping all the waiting there at least it'll be incinerated but that means travelling a cargo from one every to another dumping it into the ginormous hole in the ground which incinerate anybody who goes in there
one of the biggest ways to reduce the trash problem - reduce waste. this may mean using reusable shopping bags (like cloth) for groceries, random other stuff. (this will reduce or get rid of the need of plastic bags at stores). doing things like buying reusable water bottles/mugs for hot drinks (so there will be less waste from starbucks/tims/McDonald coffee cups.
there is so many ways that we can greatly reduce our waste. I don't know if we will ever get to 0% waste, but we can definitely work at reducing waste, recycling and reusing stuff as much as possible, etc.
We should recycle a LOT more.
All the metals and plastics that still end up in landfill could still be recycled.
I’ve seen recycling trucks dump at a landfill a few times
The change has to come from the producers of trash, manufacturers. Appealing to citizens has not worked for decades, we should try something new.
@@Awesomotron2k
Install authoritarian governments who use draconian methods :D
a world wide culture of overconsumption is the problem
@Carldawgh I install energy management systems and it has me buying supplies from electrical, plumbing and air conditioning wholesalers.
Last year I was looking for some brass compression fittings for a job and was having a hard time finding them.
I went to my last option supplier who always charges more but always has what I need.
He said I wish you were here last week. He then told me he took a whole truck load of the fittings I need to the dump.
I asked why he would do that. He said if it sits on the shelf more than a year he has to factor the cost of having a guy inventory it and pay the the taxes on it.
He said they got audited by the IRS and they went thru the warehouse and figured out how much of their inventory was more than a year old and they were fined and required to pay taxes on it.
Since then I have realized everyone my company does business with is throwing perfectly good brand new parts in the trash at the end of their fiscal year to avoid the wrath of the IRS.
It would be much better for companies to be allowed to pay taxes on their parts when they are sold.
Years ago I would go to my suppliers and buy most things right off the shelf. Now it all has to be ordered.
Now I understand why.
I got an idea to add to ways of solving the problem - learn to restrain and refrain ourselves from dumping trash into the ocean, other water ways and everywhere on land. Hm, I guess that means it would require some EFFORT on the part of each person to take responsibility for every single thing they consume and what's left afterward.

We all need to take individual responsibility for every action we do on this planet and if you're not recycling everything you can and searching for ways to continue to be good stewards of this planet that gives us life, then you're contributing to the problem.
+inbetweentics Very well said
U talk too much
It's hard to control a large population to stop them from littering. Our law system cant even stop horrendous crimes, what makes you think that they can control how people dispose of garbage. The change needs to happen within industries. Im sure that the billionaires or small businesses dont want the earth to be filled with garbage, so why arent the making a change?
I think waste is actually not waste but as u said its like A FUEL or a source of energy which is unsorted and in a kind of bad condition. If we can make a portable sorter to get the material out of landfill to our stations then we can actually reuse and process it . And innovation is always there to help us out.
Everyone needs to stop packaging everything.
I agree
Plastic 😔
like bananas in plastic package.
some things are sensitive like pottery, but passion fruits or pomegranates, this is just insane
We should stop packaging dead people in coffins
Hello TH-cam. The world garbage problem I think is caused by a misunderstanding that Earth is our life support system rather than something we just keep taking resources from. I've researched the global waste problem and have found some internet articles/documentaries stating it's really bad and others saying the problem is being solved. Here's some ideas, some may be good others dumb, I'm no expert.
1. Lasers- millions of degrees (example National Ignition Facility USA 10 Million degrees Celsius), could vaporize any waste type?
2. Nuclear fusion reactors- also really hot, waste could be put in a metal box then put in a chamber above to equalize pressure and dropped into plasma (Tokamak type)
3. Acids- some are really strong and can dissolve metals
4. Underground nuclear/thermobaric/napalm weapon explosions (huge pits could be dug, filled, covered and bomb exploded)
5. Volcanoes (put in metal container to sink before melting)
6. Collision-Vaporization (Sandia Laboratory conducted a test where a plane was slammed into a concrete wall at 700 mph and vaporized on impact, maybe a cone-shaped container accelerated to high speeds could be vaporized along with waste contents?)
7. Deep borehole disposal (Soviet Union dug Kola Superdeep Borehole, several miles depth, maybe more could be dug in remote areas?)
8. Suborbital space container reentry vaporization- capsule (metal no heat shield) shot into suborbital trajectory via rocket could reenter atmosphere and be vaporized along with waste
9. Lightning rods (lightning turns sand into glass), maybe waste piled around one could be vaporized?
10. Capsule storage (landfill alternative until technologies get better- giant concrete/metal/plastic capsules could be used for storage and stacked, no leachate leaks like landfills?)
11. Trash tanks- similar to oil terminals- big tanks where waste could decompose and leachate could be contained?
12.'Macrowave' (like microwave only bigger- heat device used to fry waste?)
13. Solar tower- sunlight used to fry waste (similar to solar tower energy), vaporizing it (or via satellite mirror for more heat)?
14. Better landfills (meantime before better tech is developed)- metal/concrete/plastic/glass liners to avoid pollution from leachate?
15. Nanomite consumption
The global waste problem is solvable I think like most issues. It needs to be soon since our population is rising and making more waste. Some things like Zero-Waste Recycling, Trash-Energy systems and Plasma Gasification show promise. Also reducing global population along with our material-loving culture may help. Lets stop trashing the Earth.
You're right, but that's a hard pill to swallow for a lot of people. It is clear that the planet is over populated. Some people think that the human population should be no larger than 500,000 world wide. I think that's a bit low, but a good number to have on each continent. This would solve more than just the trash issue. There would be no hunger, we would not be forcing other creatures into extinction and global warming would only happen because of a natural event.
Thank you for this innovative idea .please try to implement this on our society.This idea can also done in India.As a civil engineer in my sight of recylcling the plastic waste,we can make it to the compressed boxes called "plastic bricks".it can also be used for construction purpose by coating hard refractories on them.
An awesome innovative idea that is!
Oh I can help in that
I'm working on a vlog right now that covers part of the solution up front... I discovered a fashion corporation that throws thousands of pounds of clothing & purses into landfills. I'm hoping to convince them through SHAMING that they could donate these products (or recover the fibers) instead. Reduce & re-use are the best IMHO.
VLOGNOSIS will u make a vlog talking about this?

I'll jam some trash in my tank. ☺

Thinking about it, most trash we generate is plastic and all kinds of it. Most "trash" really isn't if it is properly sorted out. Food should be composted. Ban all small packages and favor big packages and reusable containers that can be washed as well.
Problem is, we have a throwaway society, things are made to be thrown out. We need to fix that first.
Why focus on processing it?
Why not focus on reducing it?
In my mind the IRS promotes a massive amount of landfill by their inventory rules.
We need to quite leaning on consumption to stimulate the economy.
Eventually a heavy price will be paid.
Waste would not be a problem if it got incinerated to produce electricity and heating like it's done in Scandinavia and Germany.
But the Climate Progressives think any kind of high density fuel or combustion is evil so the actual solutions are often buried under a near religious rhetoric of " climate change. "
@@rhedinrage1601 How is it evil? And how is this method high density? (Two unrelated questions, by the way.)
It does impose a major issue for the environment because the exhaust produces harmful pollutants that are carcinogens for the people living near these facilities. Do your research.

I think our modern way of wasteful living can be reversed, however people aren't willing to give up luxuries. I think for efficient ways of processing trash are necessary to sustain life for us and preserve life on our planet. Biodegradables are great but we still have a plastic crisis that needs to be taken care of.
The truth is people seriously need to change their lifestyles or businesses need to be forced to do what’s best for environment, not for their pockets
dig a hole near the earth's core - not throught the crust but so its very hot, build a system to drop waste into that hole where it will combust and the prodcuts can be stored.
BurningApple wtf?
Or just don’t use plastic....
thats quite expensive and burning waste produces way more greenhouse gasses than just letting it sit in landfill does, all your doing is making a very expensive method to free up land
Matthew Hull I
I think he’s just joking because it’s painstaking how impractical his solution is.
I think there needs to be a far greater push to educate the public both in waste and energy (because there is also energy waste) and their roles in climate change. Along side better systems for landfill sorting and strict regulations for people and business to sort at the source. If you're to lazy to sort your waste into the correct recycling bin's leaving someone else to have to deal with that then you should have to pay for it.
We should continue to educate our future the proper way to solve problems. Showing them the importance of life it self. To over come all issues we currently have around the world. Giving everyone the opportunity to be responsible and respectful to our future on earth and beyond.
Hold up there... cross me off the list for 2012-2016 I only made 3-4 bags of garbage a year... about 10 bags total. I did not make 3,000 pounds of garbage (which is about the weight of a car... or 2). I DID IT BABY!!!
I have a question for you, and I mean no disrespect or anything, but are you a male?
People when throwing one candy wrap:
That's a tiny trash!!!
Yea that's what billions said.
Can I use this video for my presentation in our school?
Im starting to think about this , because trash is being real problem in my country 😐
I think each family should have a consuming limit each year.When it comes to things that are not biodegradable.Like maybe for each pair of shoes swipe a card that would keep account.Maybe then we would by what we actually need.Just a thought
that's the most terrible idea i've ever heard.
Plastics, even the low grade ones that can't be recycled (such as the ones used in items such as plastic films, drinking straws and plastic cutlery) can actually be shredded and then melted to produce an alternative to bitumen for use in road surfacing.
This means that less oil has to be extracted to obtain the bitumen, and the plastic isn't going into the oceans or being burnt.
Make editable packaging that reconstutes in boiling water! Soya Bean Plastic bottles that desolve in water & a packet of added bacteria! Actually eating leftovers!
Food left overs can generally be turned into pig food or compost
I think it has to start with individuals. We can’t wait for the government to make changes/laws nor can we wait for scientists to come up with solutions. Yes that will help with the problem we’ve already created but we(individuals) have to be the first ones to take action. The first step is CONSUME LESS. Be mindful is what your purchasing. Think ahead of how the the packaging of what your buying will be disposed of. If consumers stop buying products packaged in plastic and demand biodegradable alternatives the seller will meet that need. It’s the supply and demand system that speaks louder than any government official. We can’t passively wait for the government to make changes.
With that said I am constantly frustrated at the store trying to find and buy products not packaged in plastic. Sometimes it’s impossible to get around it. But if more and more people speak up about it or just stop buying products in plastic our voices can be heard. Using reusable bags is another great option. It takes some effort in the beginning to remember to take the bags but it soon becomes routine. These are only a few small things compared to a huge problem but a lot of small changes can add up to a huge difference.
I really like this video btw! It is encouraging to learn that there is research and effort going into coming up with a solution for the mess we have in front of us. Finland is such an awesome country. I love that place. America could learn a lot from Finland!
Now the trash in the pacific is bigger than Alaska
theres almost no time yet, why is the goverment not caring?
excellent video, well we in india are facing this never ending problem, i wish that the landfills are taken into giant compactors and hardened and a sheet of rubber is placed placed over them and then their cutouts in various forms are used along highways as markers or signboards
I Support this so much this needs to be spread to the world
by using our technique called biodynamics waste (treatment all kinds of wastes) using thermal cracking methods for zero landfill waste, this BDW is reversible technique means we can recycle waste and say goodbye to the old landfills.
If we made everything from the hemp plant we could essentially stop the need for trees since you can make paper , plastic and even hempcrete for buildings ! Hemp only takes around 8-12 months to harvest , trees take decades ...the solution is simple .. it’s just getting it into mass production and making it cheaper than the big oil companies .
Although I always see a strong connection between environmental issues and the so-called connectivity revolution 4.0, it is not so easy to find good examples on the Internet to show this.
The video from 01:00 min to 01:40 min has a good example of the need for BIM, digital twin, IoT (IIoT to be exact), Smartgrid, Smart cities, etc, for a sanitation infrastructure project to Helsink city.
The rest of the video also shows the innovation and cutting-edge technology needed to have a sustainable lifestyle for the next generations.
The answer is very simple and we could easily do it but its people that aren't. Most people nowadays do things only if it benefits them or maybe I'm wrong and they're just lost not knowing these kinds of problems exist or have no idea how to fix it
Sub molecular particle acceleration by turning the trash into something else at a sub molecular level by rearranging the protons neutrons and electrons using a supercomputer to do it and knowing the process we can turn garbage into something of value
Essentially most things can be turned into a hydrocarbon fuel. We don't need to keep returning energy to the grid if the grid already runs on high density fuels. We could even be using synthetic fuels such as gasoline from air, syngas from landfil, syngas from bio mass to be powering our vehicles. A way more efficient use of reclaimed fuels.
There are so many things we could do. For example I heard of a design made by a european college student of an isolated area where currents would bring trash into. Or maybe one day we will be able to recycle everything that we throw away today. We can also follow into the footsteps of hawaii and some european nations and ban plastic bags. We can make it a national law for every building (house, office, store, restruant) to have recycling bins. These are just some thoughts, I am sure there are so much more.
Is this applicable for all type of waste,like industrial and waste from hospitals
create a matter manipulation and assembly device,a device that'll strip the trash into it's atomic component and allows for the reassembly into something else entirely.
trash into gold if need be.
If all packaging was made of compostable non-toxic materials, the creation of landfills was replaced with the creation of composting centers, and all trash cans and recycling bins were replaced with compost collection vessels, throwing away trash that doesn't effect the planet negatively would be as easy as putting your trash in a garbage can. The main flaw with this plan is that it would be very difficult to change everything we produce into compostable products. Batteries would be difficult to make compostable.
I think trash wouldn’t just gonna dissappear. It should be recycled over and over, and turn it into a good thing. We need a proper waste management in the philippines. That’s why maybe i could be able to help our country. Anw thanks for this info.
Pass laws that prevent companies from producing packaging that is not environmentally friendly and have the products returned to the company that created it rather than throwing it in a bin so they are forced to think of better ways. Give grants and initiatives to small businesses to produce better alternatives.
dude you are amazing!! where did u even get this information? this will help a lot on my project thanks
Aside from what's already been said about the fuel needed to launch the rocket (which is staggeringly expensive -- ask NASA) there's something else to consider: resource erosion. As 7 billion people becomes 14 billion, then 28 billion, and so on, and we just keep dumping the waste in the sun, the source material disappears and we get nothing back. Better by far to encourage people to switch to materials that can more easily break down and be reprocessed.
First problem. “Synthetic waste converter” 2nd law of thermodynamics. It can assist in energizing this system, but that’s it. It cannot power all that and other things. If it was that easy it would already be used.
Since most waste is recyclable anyway, I think we need to hire teams of people to separate and take all the recyclable items from the landfills to reduce the amount of waste that's just sitting there. Of course they would need some sort of safety suit but there's no reason this couldn't be done with the technology that we already have.
excellent question and while I'm really not all informed on financial things, I do know that companies will pay for recyclable goods to make their products from so I'm guessing some of their pay would come from that. What do you think?
To separate the trash is the best form to recycle, on a country like México (where i live) we need to put the garbage on different color bags as Canada.And create different forms to pay the recycle ♻️ make the population aware
The 3 Rs .. Reduced ,Reuse, Recycle .. get stuff from donation or donate or buy second hand, barrow etc.. anything but buying !! Buying means only usage for short time n back in landfill
i don't think plastic bags are super necessary.. but in the "rush" of the day, they may pile up... could we get more serious about "trash art" .. and then use that to passively educate ? .. because personally waste management videos are sometimes overwhelming and stressful when you watch them alone, lol.
I think if everyone picked up at least enough trash as they had produced then everyone would also see how serious the problem is, and not only would the current mess be picked up we would collectively stop making one.
I think people forget about the bigger problem because we don't live directly in it. Live over seas for any amount of time and you will see that the conditions that people live in are some what different and hard to believe. If it was us, we would then be concern and take notice. It's sad that we need to actually be living in it to be aware of it...
Like our other waste problems of gas and driving and shipping scrap, a redesign of cities and subdivisions is necessary. Bulk local storage of food in markets allows easy access to unpackaged foods and drinks as needed. Localized stuff distributors would easily allow no packaging. But all this would not be as "fun" for humans who are trained to think they are at the center of a universe without meaning. Also these things wouldn't make more money short term .
Money isn't bad as a representation of goods and services. The idea that life is not an interconnected web of sacred bond is driving dissociated self absorption into immediate harvest of all goods with no thought to future harvests of goods, education and human life.
Plasma gasification is the way to go, and also special landfills that collect the methane gas, and once depleted, the intert garbage will be put in the gasifier and turned to slag and gasses. This can then be used as construction material.
Methane from garbage should be collected and used to burn the garbage itself, in special environment friendly incinerators.
If we make it we should be able to recycle it. If not then shred it to the smallest piece possible, then if we have to put into a landfill it will not take a million years to decompose. In heavy water from nuclear plant we can turn in to class blocks like by using process of making glass. If it breaks it does not enter the drinking water supply.
What is that background song you're playing? Great vid and music!
Modify plastic packaging into recyclable shapes .Roof tiles for example.
Well i like the tube idea...and since its already being sorted why not send it straight to a recycling plant where 24 hours a day you could have workers double checking the sorting for proper recycling of the waste,
We can make a online shopping app in which we sale and collect many dialy life using products which are reusable, biodegradable and renewable means fully environment friendly and we can make people aware about perchacing this type of products
Large companies as Coca Cola, Nestle, P&G, etc. That are responsible for most part of the containers we use, should be responsible to create a re usable chain for those containers in all the countries they operate. Their supply chain, should contain the responsible waste control of their containers. Goverments needs to work locally with them.
I say we take some bottles and cut our plastics into little bits and put them inside the bottle until there full and then wait for it to decompose.
That is a million dollar idea which I will keep to myself into my investors decide to go for it
The solutions is to return the products that we don't use anymore or products that are broken to the companies where the products were produced, in that way the companies will recover important materials to be reused or recycled or use parts to make new product , in this way the companies will need to change the mentality about create product that not just end up in the landfills , it is time in Not just create products that only make money and that's it !
-let's say a bottle of shampoo "trademark X" from the company "Y", it is empty now!, Instead to throw away the bottle into the trash container, better returned to the factory or company where it was produced. Then in this way the plastic bottle won't be wasted uselessly in a landfill.
-let's say an automobile "trademark X" also once that it is not useful anymore, it should be returned back to the company where it was produced, they should know how to handle all the materials or parts from an expired automobile, they must to be able to recover material and other parts, in this way in the future they will need to produce automobiles with the mentality to reuse the material to build new automobiles.
-and so on: clothes, furnitures, plastic bags, electro domestic, soda cans , toys , mobile phones , tires, computers, airplanes, space rockets, bikes, weapons, satellites ,etc....All the products that have been created and if they are not useful anymore or they have finished their utility purpose, they should be returned to the companies who create them, because companies are just creating the products with the vision to make profit without thinking what is going to happen to the product once it has cover its purpose...this is a miscalculation of the industrial revolution that is affecting our present and the future.
there is equipment that turns plastic into oil and flammable gas. it is inexpensive. A liter of gas from garbage costs a few cents. Therefore, this is not garbage but useful resources.
In the near future every city will have an autonomus vehicle system. A closed number of vehicles driving autonomusly through the city.The user will reserve a vehicle that will arrive at the designated time to pick up the user. The same goes for waste, a closed number of bottles / cans will run through the system with the ability of adding a bottle/ can only when the product had reached the end of its life.
Even gasification has environmental issues. There's a gasification plant on the Isle of Wight, in England, and it's breached specified limits for dioxin emissions on a number of occasions.
im suprised you guys didn't talk about landfill mining. There are a lot of useful resources just sitting there
Recycle, Reduce, and Reuse is another way to solve this problem, but I think there is still a better method to this.
hey every problem has a solution. firstly, government should tell the manufacture to stop making plastic bottles. if those company pay big taxes and government are happy about it. then it is not cool. there are many other ways the government collect good taxes. Hence, what i am saying is this ,, we need to protect our planet.
I don't think you're evil. It's very unselfish to think about all life, rather than just your own or that of your fellow humans. What you suggest does sound reasonable. I have watched almost all of the show Revolution and I like it. Another show you might like is on Netflix. It's called Jericho. All episodes.
We find the solution to a problem,,, we create substance that nature can destroy it ....we get inspiration from nature itself
You said that the garbage can generate fuel when broken down for the electrobes, so just like back to the future use it for cars.
Or...
Lava!
Put all the junk into a lava pit!
But then before we do that we need machine to sort of its trash or or recyclable.
It would take tons out of land fills!
SuperCaptainKid 101 yeah minecraft
Build a power plant by the ocean kinda like fukashima but instead of it being powered by nuclear, its powered by trash. Trash is fed into giant blast furnaces, gases go through filtration and or transformation process until it safe. the high heat generated by the system turns sea water into steam/ impurities and salt, steam powers corrosion resistant turbines, turns back into desalinated water that either power dynomos for direct electricity or crank giant water pump to route water up into a resavuar lake for back up power generation. trash is elliminated, power is obtained. fresh water is produced people survive on this planet.
My suggestions is simple ..we bury the thrash and covered it with a mud at an average height laminating or pressed carefully. .and then what..its simple the land should not be wasted just because we buried garbage..we put solar farm on top of it or maybe green houses for environmental balanced. .or perhaps there is a system too that we could trapped methane gas as well by creating some room for the gas too be filled in..and offcos this will involves scientific installation. .
Make a smart material that can eat the trash, making itself larger and using that material for something useful. This material could become anything on the periodic table making it useful.
Encourage manufacturers to make products that are rebuildable. Such as changing a sim card or ic chip to upgrade their product. Give a lower tarif or tax to companies that keep their product out of recycling the longest. Send outdated products to lower wage countries to encourage its reuse. Source out parts in electronics like they do with car parts.
getting people to understand new doesn't mean better, you can relove what you have by fixing it and taking care of it, something new may be $1200 and a repair is $350 bit people see the warranty with the new. some how we have to change that thinking to you can get more years out of that $350
There are some interesting, and cool ideas here. But with the part where you suggest the plasma - gas process could output energy to the grid, are you not stepping into the perpetual motion/free energy space? Or is this more of a "If we put enough fuel in, we'll get more energy than we need to run the system, and the excess can be used for output" type of situation?
Jewish Music Toronto I thought that too at first, but I think the energy comes from the chemical energy stored in the trash. The products wouldn't have as much chemical energy afterward.
Idk if this will work but sounds like a good idea. You know how in metal junkyards they have those big magnets that pick up the metal. Maybe in a landfill they can have a big static electrcity magnet that picks up the plastic. You know how a balloon will stick to you. Kind of the same concept
Scandinavia (dk/no/sv) switched to incinerators because too much metal ended up being burried. Give it to them.
Democracy and Capitalism - meaning allowing free minds to address the problem from a solution/profit angle (and don't forge ego - a great motivator); if the government IS involved, then it would be in setting goals (such as waste-free products) and offering rewards (such as funds for initiating the solution)... a new world philosophy is needed, too - a paradigm shift in thinking...
Numi Who I agree that people need to think differently on the matter, but it would be mush easier to make a system in which it is easy to not pollute the earth than to change every single person's philosophy
I don't know if there is a good way to solve it yet. the plasma gasification was an interesting concept. I wonder what the downsides are.
Adopting thorough system of recycling and sorting system, and government subsidy to all countries, and prohibition mixed waste disposal recyclable materials with non-recyclables is the solution
How about putting waste in acid that will break it down to nothing? Would that be possible? Would it be harmful? Would it be practical? Let me know plz! Ive been thinking about this for a while and I want to know peoples opinions on my method!
Acid doesn't break down materials into "nothing". The waste will just be corroded by acid and change either its state or form due to the reaction. It may be a gas, liquid or solid even...You might just have waste in sludge form instead, whilst also polluting the air with toxic waste in gaseous form.
I think it a kind of impractical way to stop using plastics although it's d best I must say. But even if we do , d landfills filled with plastic need to be cleaned and I think d a way is to use dem fr ur benefit
Use reusable bags, don't buy pre-made , pre-package food. Learn to cook your own food from basic ingredients.
There is no way to remove all waste so if that was the case I'd go with TeribblePuddle's idea of destroying humans, what should be done is find a way to generate less waste in food and item packaging, If we reduced all plastic packaging even only by 30%, I'm sure that would make a phenomenal difference in the amount of trash in land fills, instead of putting everything in plastic, more grocery stores should sell things by ounce to encourage you to bring a durable container like Whole foods
Convert the trash in a 0 o2 environment for maximum yield. That's what they say in Organic Chemistry.
Sources?
For food that is still edible after foodbanks have enough, give it to farms and zoo's. For the unedible food make compost out of it.
just an idea people need to take care of the world
Dude it’s 2019 and still trashes everywhere
Well, what are you doing about it?
best way to not have trash is just don't create it at all
don't use plastic at all we can use all the other materials like wood and reusable metal
zero waste is where we need to be heading. most plastic we use is single use plastic - packaging and crap we just immediately throw away. except there really is no "away". we need more bulk grocery stores and options to buy without so much wasteful packaging. shop at the farmers market. stop buying plastic and synthetics (think wood, metals, cotton, wool, etc.). we need to punish corporations who create the most waste and wasteful products via taxes and fees, and incentivize businesses to work toward zero waste operations and manufacturing/packaging options. we also need to make lobbying illegal so these mega-corporations can't just buy out politicians and continue to pollute and poison and trash the earth. in addition, people in communities need to step up and start composting, reusing, borrowing, sharing, etc. the main part of the issue is our consumption habits. we are a consumer-driven, throw away culture. products are made cheap and break, get thrown away and then we have to buy new ones. its a major systemic issue that involves many moving parts.
Yes I can solve the problem.i have great ideas. I m a student of environmental science nd I love my earth.bt I have no platform to tell or show my project to the world.
in isreal most of the waste is recyceld to a parks like a palyground slide and even the matels of the park it self
Mega cool vid. Subscribed to the channel before it was over. Love the idea of bio-polymers.
I would convince everyone to have compost bins and then convince them all to get recycle bins and then get them to reuse the things they think could be used for something or used to build something
Maybe we should organize a project where plastic is used to power thousands of swimming robots which collect more and more plastic out of the oceans
Wow January you can solve this problem looking for the nearest active volcano and jumping all the waiting there at least it'll be incinerated but that means travelling a cargo from one every to another dumping it into the ginormous hole in the ground which incinerate anybody who goes in there
