"Hmnn. So yet again we have some people professing to "discover" the "miracle" properties of an "overlooked" and "underutilised" resource.  Helping some benighted third world farmers move their product into the 21st century and saving the world with their "new" green product. I hope the poor farmers were appropriately grateful. This is just coir fibres people. It's been traded and used for hundreds of years. Alongside copra it's the main reason why coconuts are grown.  It's been made into insulation for at least the past sixty years. This is nothing but ridiculous self aggrandising greenwashing."
