Q&A With Tom Szaky - CEO of Terracycle

wormy.jpgAt its inception, TerraCycle began with one product – worm poop fertilizer.  Today, they offer a wide variety of products including cleaning products, rain barrels, tote bags, and more.  But these are no ordinary cleaning products, rain barrels, and tote bags.  They are great examples of what we call upcycling.  They take waste products (like Clif Bar wrappers, Capri Sun pouches, or Coke bottles) and turn them into useful stuff.

Now is your chance to ask TerraCycle's CEO, Tom Szaky, all the questions you've been dying to pose.  At Huddler's Green Home, they're putting together a crowd sourced interview.  So for the next few days, post your questions in their forums and make sure to vote on your favorites.  Then they'll take the best 10, send them over to Tom to get answered and we'll publish the full interview here on Triple Pundit.  What are you waiting for?  Make sure your question is in the mix!

Again, the link to post is HERE.

  • Rebuilding a Green New Orleans: Social Enterprise in the Lower 9th Ward
    Executive Director of the non-profit Make it Right, Tom Darden, has been working closely with New Orleans officials and community leaders like Charles Allen in order to rebuild the Lower 9th Ward with eco-friendly houses. He dubs it, “the toughest redevelopment project in the country.” As if the idea of constructing eco-friendly homes in the devastated area weren’t innovative enough, the NGO’s origins are more original than most. Make it Right (MIR) was started by Brad Pitt in response to hurricane Katrina. It now has 25 employees and just completed its first 6 environmentally friendly homes built using the cradle to cradle philosophy of zero waste.
