This week on the Design Driven Life, Wendy Yates speaks with Jeff Kirschner. Former world backpacker turned bartender, Jeff is a serial entrepreneur with a love for storytelling. When his 4-year old daughter saw a plastic tub of cat litter in the woods, little did Jeff realize that it would be the spark for creating Litterati - a movement that's “crowdsource-cleaning” the planet. Now in 165 countries, the Litterati community identifies, maps, and collects waste -- resulting in an Open Litter Database - the largest of its kind. They have been featured by National Geographic, Rolling Stone, Fast Company, and at TED. Wendy and Jeff discuss how he took on the gargantuan task of starting a movement that aimed to clean up his immediate surrounding and how it grew into a global initiative despite the early speed bumps that almost derailed the project.

Imagine a world without litter. That is the mission of today’s guest, Jeff Kirshner, founder of Litterati. Litterati is an app that is empowering individuals to make a significant, measurable impact on the environment. By capturing data through geo-tagged photos of litter, Litterati is able to understand why the litter is on the street and where it is coming from. Litterati is a shining example of how communities are using technology and data to make the world a better place. When I first spoke with Jeff I was inspired by his passion to make a positive change, and what I find particularly fantastic about Litterati is that it really is about a collective effort across communities. I am a strong believer that we as individuals can take small actions to make a significant impact, and Litterati has shown, without a doubt, how a single person can inspire a community, influence an industry, and change government policies.

"You heard it here first." We start by reviewing George's experience picking up garbage with a team he organized. We started creating a project.It spontaneously arose, but I see a chance that we'll make it happen. Maybe soon, maybe it will take time. Maybe it will go nationwide. Maybe it will fall apart. Maybe it will change culture. Maybe future generations will look back at these changes as what sparked the turning point. George's gym, Spartan, Litterati, SoulBuffalo, Generation 180, Living Lands and Waters, The Story of Stuff, . . . there are a lot of organizations that want to act who are part of this growing community.I want to contrast George's motivation from your typical gym's or most organizations'. Most gyms work you now for a later payoff. For George, the future benefit is nice, but it's a side effect. The effort itself is rewarding. We heard it with Joe DeSena and Spartan.

Today, our guest is Jeff Kirschner, a fantastic storyteller, and an inspiring entrepreneur. With his startup Litterati, he created a community of 170’000 people who are on a mission to clean the planet. During this episode you will learn: How he started and financed Litterati as a solopreneur in parallel to his consulting career. How his TED residency, his TED talk, and their Kickstarter campaign contributed to his progress. How he started growing this community organically using only Instagram, without having to build an app. How the power of its mission helped him attract his first collaborators and his co-founder. How they managed to move their community from Instagram to their Android and iOs app, which was a very tricky move. Jeff was extremely honest by sharing with us his biggest mistake with Litterati, how that mistake hurt him and his community, and how they fixed it with his team. Finally, Jeff also discussed with us his list of 4 Do’s & Don’ts on how to build a community, which, as promised, are super insightful and hands-on tips.

There's a lot of talk about wind power. Let's look at some of the facts. Here's the good news. The cost of wind energy keeps falling. Business is growing and putting people to work. Cities around the world are looking at the benefits of wind power, finding them hard to ignore. Wind energy produces no emissions, no pollution. It's clean and it's an unlimited resource. For farmers. The wind, a wind farm gives them a new crop to sell. Rick: (https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=-EX8M7NDgjSiqU517XW_01_vI_9aPT9VPc3Q9Hf7E3mDvuNJvpLPMCV0P59IBf6-l3DuP9AONl6yTJHIu75uNz4Kpbs&loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&ts=67.67 (01:07)) Here's kind of a short version of how it works. Each land owner who allows a turbine on their field receives three to $7,000 a year for each turbine. Wind farms usually consist of somewhere between 50 and a hundred turbines. They're all connected by buried wires that link them up to a central transmission. The turbines are mounted on a high metal tower. You've all seen that. The turbines are run in offset lines, so they're not lined up directly in a row. They skipped some space about a half a mile apart, so they don't steal each other's wind. Farmers grow crops, animals can graze underneath the turbines while they're humming along. Wind energy went from a little over 2% of the United States electricity mix in 2010 to almost 7% last year. It's also one of the cheapest ways to produce energy. Now it's even less than natural gas. Why are farmers turning to wind? A lot of them have gone bankrupt. Rick: (https://www.rev.com/transcript-editor/Edit?token=-EX8M7NDgjSiqU517XW_01_vI_9aPT9VPc3Q9Hf7E3mDvuNJvpLPMCV0P59IBf6-l3DuP9AONl6yTJHIu75uNz4Kpbs&loadFrom=PastedDeeplink&ts=119.99 (01:59)) The bankruptcy rates in 2019 jump 20% for farmers.

Are you ready for a good story about people power and the environment?Gravy because today we're talking to Jeff Kirschner who kickstarted a community of people around the world who are picking up the trash on our streets, parks, beaches, and more. They call themselves Litterati.Bailey met Jeff back in 2014, when she was still working at Instagram and Jeff’s Litterati hashtag was burgeoning on the site. People concerned about how we were leaving the planet were photographing the pieces of trash they were picking up everywhere from Oakland to the Great Wall of China. Since we met back then, Jeff built a standalone app for the Litterati community. With this new app, the community can catalogue exactly what piece of trash they’ve picked up where. Some of the members of the Litterati community pick up hundreds, even thousands, of pieces of trash EACH DAY. To date, the cumulative impact is remarkable: 145,000+ people in the Litterati community have picked up 4.2 million pieces of trash.

Litter is everywhere. Soda cans, plastic bags, and cigarette butts litter the environment, choke wildlife, and threaten our planet. Litterati is tackling this problem one piece of litter at a time. Geotags provide insight into problem areas, while keywords identify the most commonly found brands and products. Throw some machine learning into the mix and we might just be able to model the flow of litter thought our environment.

We've spoken about the issue of plastic waste in a few previous episodes, but the problem of litter extends much beyond that. There are many other materials and items that are used in an increasingly disposable manner and that contribute to this epidemic. Litterati is a mobile app, created by Jeff Kirchner. It started off simply as an Instagram hashtag, but it started to grow into a global movement. Jeff then realised he was collecting lots of useful data and perhaps this data could be leveraged to approach brands who were the main litter offenders. In the interview, Jeff will share some of the stories of how that is working in the real world and how the power of ‘big data' can be used for good and not evil for a change. We also talk about how even though littering isn't necessarily the biggest environmental issue of our time that the app can be used as a gateway into other issues and a way to engage people on an accessible issue. Download the app on iTunes or Android and have a go, it's actually really fun! If you want to join the growing Facebook community head to: https://www.facebook.com/groups/350453888983249/
A bit of a Monday afternoon in the second half of May spent cleaning up broken glass and musing on the connections between that, zen, the Jersey Shore, David Letterman and more. Plus frameworks and constraints to limit and free because "you're always going to find one more piece." (And) to mention Litterati, which Micki Seibel turned me onto and if I can find any glass I will go back out there and document it (or just the rest of the litter of the day).

Walking through a forest in the Bay Area, Jeff Kirschner and his kids saw trash near a stream. His daughter pointed out that it did not belong there. Since then, Jeff and his team developed Litterati (an app dedicated to making a litter-free world) and, more significantly, an international community dedicated to cleaning the planet. In this podcast, Jeff discusses his background and Litterati's evolution. He delves into how the company uses the data and information they gather to enable both the public and the private sector to make more informed decisions and choices.
When Jeff Kirschner’s daughter saw a plastic tub of cat litter in the woods, little did he realize that it would be the spark for creating Litterati, a global community working to create a litter-free planet. Jeff is the founder and CEO of Litterati. He talks about crowdsource-cleaning the planet one piece of litter at a time and goes through the process of creating the app and how it has empowered communities to take action. Dubbed as one of America’s top innovation experts by Inc. magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Dateline NBC, CNBC, CIO Magazine, and the CBC, is Doug Hall – an inventor, researcher, educator, and craft whiskey maker.

Земля очень большая, что затрудняет поддержание на ней чистоты. С помощью Litterati — приложения, в котором пользователи могут выявлять, собирать и привязывать к местности мусор из разных уголков мира — участник программы TED Residence Джефф Киршнер создал сообщество, которое занимается очисткой планеты. Отслеживая мусор более чем в 100 странах, Киршнер надеется использовать собранные данные для работы с брендами и организациями, чтобы не дать мусору долететь до земли.
