🌍 Taking Back Control of the Internet & Turning Textile Waste Into Profit
from Somewhere on Earth: The Global Tech Podcast
This week on Somewhere on Earth, we explore two groundbreaking ideas: taking back control of your online creativity and transforming fast-fashion waste with the power of fungi. 1️⃣ Rebuilding a Human InternetRabble (Evan Henshaw-Plath), Co-creator of Nostr Divine Rabble, Twitter’s first engineer, unveils Divine - a new six-second video platform that rejects algorithms, bans AI-generated slop, and returns ownership of old content to creators. Built on open social protocols, Divine aims to restore a human, interoperable, user-driven internet. 2️⃣ Mushrooms vs. Fast FashionTomasz Mierzwa, Co-founder of Myco Renew is on the show to explain how their fungal bioreactors can break down textiles - even polyester - in weeks and turn the leftovers into eco-bricks and new biomaterials. With 92 million tons of clothes thrown out yearly, this fungi-powered circular model could help clean up landfills from Poland to Ghana. 🎙️ Presented by: Ania Lichtarowicz👩💻 Production Manager: Liz Tuohy🎬 Editor: Ania Lichtarowicz 🌍 Somewhere on Earth Productions UK: We’re a UK-based production company creating podcasts and branded content that bring stories, places and people into focus.
