Video Description

Humans create over 2 billion tons of garbage every year. We all have to live with that. Others are doing something about it: They're making vegan leather from rotten mangoes, recycling plastic into bricks, stuffing teddy bears with cigarette butts, and lacing up sneakers made from shopping bags.
