CNA Insider | Climate Trailblazers: Reimagining Our Future | Video 

We’ve arrived at the dawn of a new industrial revolution. One where waste becomes resource, where materials get a valuable second life, or as many lives as possible. And where they are created much more efficiently. This short documentary examines the future of materials, from bioplastics to clothes made with the help of carbon emissions, cotton grown in a lab, new leathers made without animals, to new and more sustainable concrete and cement. Produced in partnership with Temasek Ecosperity.
