Description:
Cement-tile artisans use colorful pigments to form hundreds of designs. The tiles have been popular for nearly 200 years as a beautiful and affordable building material, but today, they can cost over 10 times as much as some ceramic subway tiles. And despite the premium, many workshops have struggled to stay in business. Now, the price for their main ingredient has skyrocketed, aggravated by supply-chain issues and shortages. So, what's made cement tiles more expensive? And can new trends sustain this traditional craft?

_what-would-earth-be-like-with-no-moon.webp "Earth with no moon—sounds kinda eerie, right? Without that big ol' rock in the sky, our nights would be way darker, like, seriously spooky. Plus, tides would be way less dramatic without the moon's gravitational pull, so no epic beach waves, sorry surfers. But here's the kicker: our tilt would be all wonky without the moon to stabilize it, so say goodbye to those consistent seasons. And don't even get me started on how it'd mess with wildlife and ecosystems—talk about a total game-changer for planet Earth! So yeah, life without the moon? Definitely not your average day in the universe.Animation is created by Bright Side.<br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com <br/><br/>Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV <br/><br/>Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz <br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>Our Social Media:<br/>Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside <br/>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official<br/>TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en <br/><br/>Stock materials (photos, footages and other):<br/>https://www.depositphotos.com<br/>https://www.shutterstock.com<br/>https://www.eastnews.ru<br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>For more videos and articles visit:<br/>http://www.brightside.me")
