It can be easy to take something for granted that every time you see it, it seems to go on forever. It’s like an infinite path to the horizon, a landscape that never ends. This is sand, and even though just a simple trip to the beach can make it feel like you’re perpetually surrounded by it, it doesn’t end there. Sand is the foundation humanity has built itself on. What would happen if that foundation ends?

Informative but another instance of panic based medium designed to drive up anxiety rather than point out solutions.

Once we deplete all resources humanity must infect another planet and repeat the process or perish.

I like sand. It may be coarse, rough, and irritating, but it is useful. That's why we get it everywhere.

Sand is like water except solid lmao. Deserts are solid oceans. No wonder sand and water are used the most, they’re cousins.

There's a lotta sand wasted in the world. Those empty islands in Dubai, heaps of trashes around dumpsites, and old abandoned buildings. It would be a really big deal if we could recycle them for new material but the problem is a lot of companies would not be happy with it even if it could give a good effect to the environment.

Maybe it is time to switch to more modern materials. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could grow our homes somehow?
