00:00I think you have a lot of things around you that cost a lot of effort for the earth to make,
00:07but you don't even really need it.
00:09What I buy, I actually know nothing about how it was made, by whom it was made,
00:14whether it was done honestly.
00:16The solution is in how we deal with buying.
00:22Dave Hakkens and Nienke Hoogvliet.
00:25They belong to a generation of designers that want to change the world.
00:30You want to make us think about value.
00:32I want to make a serious attempt to change this system.
00:39We bought this big piece of land in Portugal
00:41to live and work in a more sustainable way.
00:44What I do is take CWR and make textile fat out of it.
00:48Because there is so much to improve in the textile industry.
00:54Maybe I sometimes lose myself in my own idealism.
00:58Sometimes it's annoying to do it all by yourself.
01:01Hey, welcome to your new project camp update.
01:04You're in several places.
01:06Yes, there are six exhibitions.
01:08There's still a lot to do here.
01:10Yes.
01:12It's fun, of course, but sometimes it's just intense.
01:15I experience chaos in my life.
01:18I would like a little less financial pressure.
01:21Have you thought about the hourly price?
01:27I'm a bit done with it.
01:29Industry, consumers, government.
01:32They all have the will to change.
01:35And then the mass can change.
