Nature Bag Khmu Project Details
We are a group working to share Earth's Greenest Bag with the global Eco-concscious community. Our focus is linking the ancient Khmu culture, which crafts the bag, to the modern world. Our objectives include reducing poverty in Northern Laos, preserving an ancient home-based craft through social enterprise and marketing/distributing a superior versatile carrying device that is as useful today as it was 5,000 years ago.Our bag is earth's greenest because it's homemade using naturally growing fiber, is durable for a long life cycle, is lightweight so that only minuscule amounts of fossil fuels are used in shipping it worldwide, cleans the air by removing carbon and adding oxygen as its fiber grows and enriches the soil it is buried in while it biodegrades (if it ever becomes unusable as a bag).The JungleVine™ cord used requires no agriculture (hence no fertilizer, chemicals, cultivation or irrigation), is hand gathered near the villages that make the bag and, being homemade, requires no time- and energy-consuming commuting. The small amount of energy used in the homes of the crafters comes entirely from water and sun, thus is totally renewable. There is no fossil fuel used until the bags are transported from the villages to our distribution center in the spiritual UNESCO world heritage tourism attraction of Luang Prabang, Laos, on motorbikes or public buses.
