Ask The Guest: Our Trash Is Someone Else’s Treasure

7/8/2008

Ask The Guest A Question!

Do you have a question for our upcoming radio show guest?

Tom Szaky, Founder of TerraCycle, is joining us on Small Business Trends Radio on Tuesday, July 15th at 1:30PM EST to discuss how he took waste such as plastic soda bottles, saved them from landfills and reused them to package his product. And what’s his product you ask? It’s organic fertilizer or worm “poo” to be exact. In addition to various other “green” products such as backpacks, lunch boxes and homework folders made from recycled Capri Sun pouches, organic cleaners and lawn care products.

If you have a question for Tom, we’ll try to present it to him during the live show. The deadline for your questions is Monday, July 14th at noon Eastern time.

Ask away below in the comments section!

  1. How did you come to the realization that worm poo could be marketed as an organic fertilizer that would be accepted by the market? What sparked that idea?
