Nowadays, climate change is not the only threat facing our planet. There are also other types of pollution such as waste that poisons soils and water and kills plants, harming humans and animals. Sustainability represents a key issue for the actual Global Citizen. For this reason, our article is dedicated to offering biofriendly solutions to decrease wastes, give them a positive meaning, such as a substrate for an edible oyster fungus with nutritive and biological properties usefully for humans. Three types of wastes such as coconut coir, pine sawdust, and paper waste-representative symbols of pollution in Ecuador-have been tested as suitable growing substrate for the edible fungi (Jacq. ex Fr.) P. Kumm by analyzing parameters such as , , . The influence of these "waste" substrates on the nutritive (protein content), biological characteristic (antioxidant activity), and the content of human-health-sustaining compounds (phenols, flavonoids) were also evaluated using the Kjeldahal, DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, and Folin-Ciocalteu methods. The results indicate that all the waste products represent desirable substrates for growing the edible fungi, with more focus on coconut coir waste (one of the principal pollution problems in Ecuador), but that also achieved the increase in the fungi's desirable characteristics. Coconut coir waste could be an environmentally friendly solution that also offers for humans additional nutritive and healthy benefits.
如今，气候变化并非我们星球面临的唯一威胁。还存在其他类型的污染，比如废物，这些废物会毒害土壤和水源，致使植物死亡，进而危害人类和动物。可持续性是当今全球公民面临的一个关键问题。因此，我们的文章致力于提供对生物友好的解决方案，以减少废物，并赋予它们积极意义，比如将其作为具有营养和生物学特性、对人类有益的可食用牡蛎菇的基质。通过分析诸如[此处原文缺失相关参数内容]等参数，对厄瓜多尔污染典型代表的三种废物——椰壳纤维、松木锯末和废纸，进行了测试，看其是否适合作为可食用真菌（Jacq. ex Fr.）P. Kumm的生长基质。还使用凯氏定氮法、二苯基苦味酰基自由基（DPPH）法、2,2'-联氮-双-3-乙基苯并噻唑啉-6-磺酸（ABTS）法、铁离子还原抗氧化能力（FRAP）法和福林-酚（Folin-Ciocalteu）法，评估了这些“废物”基质对营养成分（蛋白质含量）、生物学特性（抗氧化活性）以及对维持人体健康的化合物（酚类、黄酮类）含量的影响。结果表明，所有这些废物产品都是适合种植可食用真菌的基质，尤其值得关注椰壳纤维废物（厄瓜多尔主要污染问题之一），而且它还能提升真菌的理想特性。椰壳纤维废物可能是一种环境友好的解决方案，同时还能为人类带来额外的营养和健康益处。
