Learn more at swaythefuture.com.  In this episode, we discuss: ●      Why recycling won't fix our plastic problem ●      The properties of seaweed that make it a flexible plastic film substitute ●      The “Amazon Rainforest” ecosystem you never considered  Key Takeaways: ●      Seamless Integration for Easy Adoption: Introducing a new material into established supply chains and factory processes can be challenging. Take a page out of the Sway playbook. If possible, create a plug-and-play solution that works with existing machinery. This lowers the barrier for manufacturers to test and adopt the new product, making it significantly easier to scale and implement across their industry. ●      Understanding Product Lifecycles: To truly grasp the benefits and costs of any product, it's crucial to examine its entire lifecycle. Take plastic, for example. The visible litter on beaches is just the tip of the iceberg. Microplastics in our oceans and bloodstreams are harming marine life and human health. The environmental impact of extracting petroleum for plastic production, and the long-lasting waste clogging our landfills, are often hidden from view but equally damaging. Out of sight should not mean out of mind—these unseen costs are critical to our understanding of plastic's true impact. ●      The Power of Innovative Thinking: We need more people like Julia innovating new ways to do things. People who question the status quo. People who notice the cost of continuing to do things the same way, and aren't ok with that cost. People that are curious enough to lean in, tinker, and innovate new solutions that are better for everyone. The next time you notice something off, don't dismiss it. Instead, explore it—maybe you're the one who will come up with the next groundbreaking solution. Your curiosity could lead to innovations that make a better future.  References: ●      Connect with Julia on LinkedIn ●      Sway ○      Keep up with Sway on Instagram ●      Tom Ford Plastic Innovation Prize ●      Lonely Whale ●      Beyond the Bag Challenge Connect & Share: If you enjoy the podcast, would you please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

I love talking about food waste. It's one of the biggest contributors to emissions and something that we all contribute to every day. Reducing how much food goes uneaten is, of course, a big part of the solution, but there'll always be organic waste. If it sits in a landfill, it'll emit methane and miss the chance to be used as a resource.Today's episode focuses on an Israeli startup that sees organic waste as a precious resource. HomeBiogas turns waste into fuel onsite to be used for heating and cooking. They're off to the races selling their products for a range of applications – from backyards to hotels – and they're just getting started. We're joined today by HomeBiogas' founder Oshik Efrati, and one of their key investors Ron Gonen from Closed Loop Partners. We talk about both guests' backgrounds, the challenges and opportunities to create a circular economy, anaerobic digestion, how HomeBiogas turns waste into energy, the opportunity they see, and much more. Here we go. In today's episode, we cover:[3:03] Oshik's background & what led him to launch HomeBiogas[4:51] Ron's experience in recycling and waste & what led him to founding Closed Loop Partners[7:08] Closed Loop Partner & the ways it's working to eliminate waste[9:06] The impact of waste on climate & why solutions are needed[10:32] How Oshik sees the problem & what his company is working to solve[11:43] How HomeBiogas is approaching the problem[13:44] Anaerobic digestion & what else makes HomeBiogas' systems possible[16:09] The potential that Closed Loop Partners sees in HomeBiogas as an investor[17:43] Oshik's view of the market opportunity[18:19] Measuring climate & environmental impacts[19:51] HomeBiogas' traction, different applications & go-to-market[21:06] The process of converting waste to energy in buildings[22:25] The toilet market & what HomeBiogas is able to do with human waste[24:33] What's most critical to HomeBiogas' success[25:39] Partnerships that HomeBiogas has developed & is looking for now[28:06] The residential market in the US[31:19] The next few years from a business & impact perspective[33:03] How does this space compare to other circular economy verticals[34:22] What else is needed for realizing the circular economyResources MentionedHomeBiogas Closed Loop PartnersConnect with Oshik Efrati & Ron GonenConnect with Oshik on LinkedInConnect with Ron on LinkedInConnect with Jason RissmanOn LinkedInOn TwitterKeep up with Invested In ClimateSign up for our Newsletter

Waste in the food system is an incredibly big challenge. Whether the aim is to reduce food loss, to curb packaging that ends up in landfills, or even to ensure food that's grown makes it out of the field, there is waste at every link in the chain that continues to contribute to food and ag's outsized climate impact. The good news is, there are plenty of startups, and many investors, that are tackling these thorny problems. But the problem is, it's really complex.Our internal grappling with why waste is such a hard nut to crack has taken us on a journey to better understand the barriers in the food system waste space. Today, we're talking with Aly Bryan and Anne-Marie Kaluz from Closed Loop Partners about what they think is holding us back in addressing our waste problems, and then we turn to Olympia Yarger from Goterra (a Tenacious Ventures portfolio company) for more from an entrepreneur's perspective.For more information and resources, visit our website.

It aids climate action in three ways. It complements decarbonization measures, it supports the sustainable scaling of the clean energy transition, and it enhances adaptation to a changing climate. The value creation opportunity is US$4.1 trillion, according to one estimate. Our guest, Ellen Martin from Circulate Capital, is greatly involved in investing in this space. In the podcast, she first provides some background on the circular economy in general and plastic circularity in particular, and how it ties in with climate action. She also describes the investable market as well as government policy and regulation. From the perspective of private equity, we then dive into the business and investment opportunities in the Asia region, including a discussion on the types of investors as well as some examples of Circulate Capital's investments. (Link to The Circulate Initiative's report referred to by Ellen: Plastics Circularity Investment Tracker)Ellen Martin is Circulate Capital's Chief Impact Officer. In her role, Ellen is responsible for driving impact and insights for the firm and managing ESG through the investment process. As a member of Circulate's leadership and investment teams, Ellen is focused on ensuring the firm's collective strategies, assets, and relationships deliver impact as it grows. She is also a senior advisor to Circulate Capital's mission-aligned non-profit, The Circulate Initiative.

During her tenure, the Fund deployed $50M with $200M co-invested in projects in North America, resulting in avoidance of 2 million tons of GHG emissions in the first three years. Before she discovered her passion for the circular economy, Ellen was a strategy consultant at FSG, the social impact consulting firm, where she worked with Fortune 500 companies, philanthropic foundations, development banks, and nonprofit organizations to develop, implement and evaluate impact strategies. She is a regular speaker and contributor on the topic of investing in the circular economy.HOST, PRODUCTION, ARTWORK: Joseph Jacobelli | MUSIC: Ep0-29 The Open Goldberg Variations, Kimiko Ishizaka Ep30- Orchestra Gli Armonici – Tomaso Albinoni, Op.07, Concerto 04 per archi in Sol - III.

In this episode, we talk with Ron Gonen, who is the founder of Closed Loop Partners, and the author of The Waste-Free World: How the Circular Economy Will Take Less, Make More, and Save the Planet. Ron believes we have a challenge in the American economy -- and a little bit in the U.K. as well some other developed countries -- where the highest status in society goes sometimes to the jobs that don't always create the most social benefit or require the most amount of intellect. The jobs of teacher, fire person, police person, public servants, soldier are the backbone of our society. Unfortunately, the status we've assigned to those jobs, and the financial incentive, is low in society. We hope you enjoy this conversation.
