The Sand Mafia – Humanity is running out of SAND and it is a Huge Problem | ENDEVR Documentary
Sand Wars | ENDEVR Documentary
Watch ‘Megapolis Mumbai – Between Slums and Skyscrapers ‘ here: https://youtu.be/smXqjkdK1qU
From Mumbai to Brittany, Dubai, Tangier, or the Maldives, this fascinating ecological investigation unveils a global emergency: the threat to sand. Sand is a vital resource, and pillaging has intensified the need for concrete construction.The main consequence of this is the erosion of coastlines.
Many countries resort to illegal measures to satisfy their demand for sand. For example, Singapore has been accused of sand smuggling, and sand trafficking has even led to the disappearance of islands in neighboring countries.
Severe environmental concerns are associated with the extraction of sand from both land and sea, including the destruction of habitats, loss of biodiversity, and the physical erosion of coastlines and islands. This has broader societal impacts, with communities that rely on these habitats for their livelihoods being significantly affected.

What a surprise, greedy humans ruining the world.
Sand removal (theft) is causing islands to disappear more than climate change, but both are having diabolical, irreversible & devastating impacts.
It will never end until everything implodes.
Governments must admit that infinite “growth” is not the answer. They base everything on economics, consumerism & monetary wealth.
True wealth is living within your means & being content.
The earth has a finite population that it can support & we have already exceeded this.
Wake up before it’s too late. Stop politicians, corruption & criminals from destroying our world.

Have the sediments at the bottom of dammed reservoirs been tapped? There should be huge quantities behind dams like the Glen Canyon Dam.

Yeah i believe it the only person that can stop construction in Melbourne has been the owner of a sand quarry it gets trucked up to 200km away to concrete batching plant's it is also what has driven the price of batched concrete check out the price of a cubic metre of sand

It's always nice to learn a new way our world is messed up. I don't think turning glass into sand is a good idea – that glass came from sand to start with, and we'll have to use more sand to create more glass. At least, that is my understanding. A thought though: desert sand is no good because it doesn't stick together. It's too smooth and round, right? So what happens if you melt that sand down into glass, and then use that sand to build with?
