Congratulations to white people for discovering the things they labelled as savage and uncivilised when they found our ancestors doing them

Stop judging the article by this poorly frased tweet. Please just read the actual article. This guy obviously doesn’t claim to have discovered the coconut or it’s many different uses. He simply found a cheap way to mass produce pallets out of coconut husks. Of course making new things out of coconuts is an age old practice but it has never been done at this scale. This actually is a pretty cool thing because it makes use of millions of coconut husks that would have gone to waste and therefore saves more valuable resources like trees from being cut.
