Maliit lang kung titignan, pero malaking problema kung maiipon ang mga itinatapong diapers kada araw. May plastic component pa naman ang mga 'yan kaya hindi basta nabubulok. Pero may amazing solution na dinevelop ang mga eksperto. Tara, let's change the game!

00:33Kaano kadami ang nagagamit na diaper ng isang baby kada araw?
00:37Si baby, sa isang araw nakakalimang diaper po.
00:41Nakakatatlong diaper sa isang araw.
00:43Tatlong bisis po sa isang araw.
00:45Mga pito sa isang araw magagamit ng apo ko.
00:50At sa buong Pilipinas, mahigit tatlong milyong diapers ang natatapon kada araw.
00:56Mga diaper na may plastic at di basta nabubulok.
01:00Ang ibang diaper, hindi basta plastic, kundi maituturing na hazardous o mapanganib tulad ng mga galing sa ospital na posibling may dalang sakit.
01:14Ganyan ang kinukulekta ng kumpanya ni Maydeline Goton.
01:17Part na rin ito nung sa problema natin sa mismong basura.
01:22Kasi kung tutuusin nga natin, yung isang peraso nga bago ma-decompose, 100 of years.
01:28So, what more pa yung 3 million?
01:30Hindi madali ang pag-manage ng human waste kaya ng diaper lalo na at nagtataglay ito ng material na plastic na kapag ka-itinapon, eh hindi na bubulok.
01:39At para matapos na ang problema nito sa paggamit ng diaper, here is a solution from the experts.
01:50Presenting Hero, ang diaper na may kapartner na plastic eating fungi na dinevelop sa Austin, Texas, USA.
01:57Inside this little pouch are little friendly fungi that are sleeping inside.
02:02And when the baby poops your peas, you just literally take off the diaper, you drop the whole pouch in, you don't have to open it, you drop the whole thing, and you close it and you throw it away in the trash like normal.
02:12At pagkatapos ng ilang buwan lang.
02:14These little friendly fungi will be fertilized by our baby's poop or pea and will start growing and it will start growing and then start eating the diaper.
02:22Eventually, it will break down.
02:24Ipinaliwanag nila kung bakit kaya ng fungi na mag-decompose ng plastic sa diaper.
02:32Essentially, all plastic is made out of fossil fuels. All fossil fuels is dead trees and animals.
02:38Fungi evolved to break down trees because essentially they're made out of the same thing.
02:43Pero para sa produktong ito, iba't ibang uri ng fungi ang inilalagay.
02:47Hero uses a blend of fungi and they are very interesting plastic eating fungi.
02:53Kaano naman sila kapilis magbulok ng diaper?
02:56Here we have our Hero technology with a full-size diaper in a jar.
03:01And as you can see, it's already started to take over the diaper and almost fully emerge it.
03:07And here we have the same thing after 6 months so you can see that it's taken over even much more.
03:15Here we're seeing the diaper being digested.
03:18Here you can see 3 months after the first jar how it's fully taken over.
03:23You can't really see any pieces of the diaper.
03:25And here we have roughly after 9 months.
03:32This end product is just digested, plastic, and essentially earth.
03:38Ano naman kaya ang masasabi ni May sa produktong ito?
03:41Tingin ko sir, hindi lang sa part namin mawawala yung problema.
03:45Makakatulong to sa buong Pilipinas kasi kung yung ilalagay yun tapos decompose na,
03:51pwedeng isama yun sa pataba sa lupa.
03:59There you have it mga kapuso.
04:00Here is an amazing solution to the world's daily problem on human waste and single-use plastic.
