  • #10: Food Waste, Part 3
    Dec 23 2022

    This is part three and the final part of our series on the problem of food waste. We're throwing away a third of our food globally, so what can businesses do about it?

    • Applying technology in new ways to tackle hard-to-process food waste
    • Case studies from Goterra and Glanris
    • Interviewed: Bob Gordon (Zero Carbon Forum), Bryan Eagle (Glanris)

    In this episode, we're looking at how businesses can tackle unavoidable or hard-to-process food waste - with case studies about innovative Australian waste management business Goterra (using insects to process food waste and create animal feed), and US-based startup Glanris (turning rice hulls into a sustainable water filtration media). The episode features insights from interviewed guests Bob Gordon (Zero Carbon Forum, prev. Goterra) and Bryan Eagle (Glanris).

  • #9: Packaging, Part 2
    Nov 25 2022

    This is part two of our series on the great packaging pileup: finding better ways to wrap up our goods. How can businesses improve their approach to packaging, maximising its value and eliminating waste?

    • Claims and terms about packaging: recyclable, recycled content, biodegradable, compostable, reusable
    • Cradle to Cradle Certified: L'Oreal case study

    In this episode, we take a closer look at the claims and terms that we see often written on packaging or said about packaging, like recyclable, recycled content, reusable, biodegradable... and try to demystify really what they mean in practice. We give some advice to businesses around how they can tell customers what to do with packaging once it's in their hands. We also share another framework to help businesses improve their packaging approach from the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute, with an example about the world's largest cosmetics company, L'Oreal.

  • #8: Giving, Part 2
    Nov 11 2022

    This is part two and the final part of our series on the billion-dollar question of corporate giving.
    Businesses give billions to not-for-profits every year. But what if the way you donate hurts
    instead of helps?

    • Is unrestricted funding the way forward?
    • Case studies from Thankyou and iDE Global
    • Interviewed: Peter Yao (Thankyou), Nadia Campos (iDE Global), Andrew Davies (B Lab)

    In this episode, we look at unrestricted funding as an alternative corporate giving model: with
    case studies about social enterprise Thankyou (shifting from tied to unrestricted funding), and
    nonprofit iDE Global (providing a long-term market based solution to open defecation in
    Cambodia using unrestricted funds). The episode features insights from interviewed guests
    Peter Yao (Thankyou), Nadia Campos (iDE Global) and Andrew Davies (B Lab).
