We manufacture sustainable building materials using hemp and lime. Our structural blocks, which require no cement or concrete, are stacked like Lego with an adhesive binder. The main advantage of our hemp building system is the indoor air quality and comfort it provides. It regulates humidity, prevents mold growth, and maintains even temperatures. Additionally, it keeps buildings cooler in the summer. As the hemp plant grows, it absorbs carbon dioxide and stores it in the material, resulting in a negative carbon footprint. Our pilot facility is working towards commercial production.

Today, we're learning how to make diesel from common household plastic. It's a simple process of packing the plastic into an oxygen-free environment and cooking it. The longer and hotter you cook it, the more diesel you can make. We've already made some diesel, which we tested and found to be flammable and thick. We'll use this diesel to power our generator and run appliances like the washing machine and ice cream maker. Afterward, we'll use gasoline for other purposes like water pumps. Plastic recycling is not very effective, with only 9% of all plastic ever made being recycled as of 2015.

In this video, we explore the art of geopolymer, which was used to create astonishing works of art in the dark ages. Geopolymer is the technique of casting artificial stone, and it can be recreated today. By using 3D printers to create molds, geopolymer blocks can be made, allowing for easier construction that can last for hundreds or even thousands of years. This raises questions about whether ancient civilizations used geopolymer casting to create structures worldwide, and challenges the truth we've been told about our ancestors.

The old world used red bricks as energy storage units, holding electric charges like batteries. This technology, possibly repurposed from the past, is not widely known. Despite the potential for cheap, energy-efficient bricks, mainstream adoption is unlikely due to lack of profit. Many old world buildings with red bricks were covered up with facades, hiding their true potential. It's important to question everything.

"And the majority of the the materials that we use are polyester based because of their performance Performance features are one thing, environmental risk and biological risk is another thing. as a forever material, which means it never really goes away. It breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces that become what we now call microplastics or nanoplastics. Recent data is now telling us that we're ingesting micro nanoplastics up to a credit card a week. You're finding it now in our arteries, in our veins, in our brains. You could have up to a plastic spoon, one of those single use spoons of plastic in your brain. Some research out of Italy earlier last year came out and said you're much more prone to have a fatality from a heart attack or heart disease if you have plastic buildup that's leading to plaque buildup in your arteries."

In this video, we compare building materials from different time periods to see how they hold up under pressure. We test bricks from modern times, the 1950s, and the 1890s. The modern brick withstands 607 units of pressure, while the 1950s brick holds up to 1049 units. However, the brick from the 1890s impressively withstands 1175 units. Moving on to concrete, the modern version can handle 6321 units of pressure, but the old-world concrete surpasses it with over 18 tons. The speaker concludes that we are progressing in reverse. They encourage viewers to question everything.

Julian Brown, also known as Nature Lab, invented a method to convert plastic waste into usable fuel using microwave pyrolysis. His handmade continuous microwave pyrolysis reactor can convert mixed, sorted, clean, or dirty plastic waste into fuel at $0 a gallon. The process yields diesel, gasoline, and carbon black as a byproduct. After an explosion that caused second-degree burns, Julian discovered that his car's lug nuts had been loosened, nearly causing an accident. He believes this was not a coincidence. He is now working on a solar-powered version of his reactor, envisioning a future where plastic waste becomes valuable and fuels our lives. He claims over 3.4 billion plastic items are discarded daily, and his invention could change the fight against pollution.

Speaker 0 outlines a cavemen–style method for casting an artificial stone “huge stone” inside a plastic cup, using no cement mixer, no drill, no vibration, no scale. The process uses water glass, sand or crushed stone (granite grit or desert sand), and a pinch of slaked lime as a 2% catalyst. Step one: the spirit test. If your water glass doesn’t gel after a sip of whiskey or strong spirit, stop. Step two (for beginners): measure roughly 100 grams of sand or granite grit and 2 grams of slate lime, maintaining approximately a 2% catalyst. The presenter demonstrates by placing 100 g of silica sand in one cup and 1 g of lime in another, then adds a second gram of lime. The 2% catalyst visibly stains the sand white, so he no longer uses a scale and adds lime until the color clearly changes. He repeats this with ground granite—lime lightens it as well. The basalt powder shows no color change because it’s a modern ultra-fine powder where the lime disappears; the desert sand (lemon yellow, terrarium-type) also turns white with 2% lime. Four candidates are tested: silica sand, granite grit, basalt powder, and desert sand. Next, the wet mixing method. Instead of measuring the water glass, the mold (a plastic pudding cup) is filled with about one centimeter of undiluted water glass, often boiled to thicken. The dry, catalyzed mix is spooned into the water glass and immediately begins to clump due to surface dehydration and gelling. The clumps are broken up while still underwater to keep the mixture bubble-free; this is done by spooning and crushing beneath the liquid surface. The goal is to fill under the surface so bubbles rise out, preventing bubbles in the final stone. The process continues until the submerged fill reaches the height of the neighboring “stone wall.” Excess water glass is addressed by poking a hole low on the mold to allow the liquid to drain, rather than tipping the large stone out or using the cup to drain. The presenter notes that some nudges or “nubs” on real stones might have served to channel drainage, but in this method the nubs are optional. The same process is repeated for the other three candidates (granite, basalt, desert sand). After days, the stones shrink enough to pop out of the cups and they turn out gorgeously. In the first days, the material is still easy to carve; the granite version can be hollowed with a teaspoon, the basalt version is lower quality (as expected), and the desert sand version is described as awesome. The material can be cut with a knife in the initial days, reminiscent of ancient sarcophagi. The speaker imagines the potential for massive-scale casting and concludes with a nod to how the Incas hauled enormous stones to Machu Picchu—“in buckets.”
