You may not think twice about paying that extra fee for canned soda, beer, seltzer, and other drinks at the grocery store, but how often do you bring the cans back to the store to get your money back? Over the years, Jeff Dinneen of Needham has made it his mission to collect those cans, redeem them, and use the money to supply the Needham Community Council with much-needed food and milk for local residents in need. He talks with Nichole this week about his inspiration, his process, and how you can help keep the project going.

Garbologist Bel Chellingworth unpacks the complexity of e-waste, and shares the steps you can take at home.

Jamie takes a trip to the Great Minnesota Get-Together to talk with people and hear their thoughts on recycling, water quality, and products made from post-consumer plastics. He had some great conversations, including a chat with Lauren from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. They discussed how HDPE plastics can be recycled to make products like picnic tables and birdhouses--as well as drainage pipe, which uses a large volume of post-consumer plastic. Jamie also talked with Ann and Jennifer from the University of Minnesota Extension about the opportunities that exist to educate young people about local water quality, the role that plastic pipe manufacturing plays in recycling efforts, and potential careers in the water management industry.The last conversation in this episode is with Jacob from By the Yard, a Minnesota-based company that manufactures and sells lawn furniture made from recycled plastic.

In this Week 39 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we unpack the latest ship-recycling market trends, freight dynamics, currency and steel movements, and key regional updates from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. This week's theme: Disconnect. Global Market Overview Dry bulk freight turned volatile: Baltic Dry Index ended the week with a net 2.5 % gain, driven by Capesize strength of about 5.5 %, even as daily readings slipped late in the week. Oil softened: WTI crude fell 1 % to around USD 65 per barrel, pressured by Kurdistan resuming crude exports after 2.5 years. Currencies weakened: Indian rupee dropped to INR 88.62, Bangladesh taka to BDT 122.04, and Turkish lira to TRY 41.58; only the Pakistani rupee strengthened, to PKR 282.50. Steel plate prices mostly flatlined, except India slid USD 15 to USD 409.20 per ton, weighing on sentiment. Bangladesh Chattogram stayed the quietest sub-continent market. Recycled steel failed to move, and larger LDT tonnage kept diverting to competitors. The taka closed at BDT 122.04, while 18 yards are HKC-compliant with more approvals expected next month. India Alang faced a tough week. The rupee weakened to INR 88.62, briefly near 89, and steel prices dropped to USD 409.20 per ton. Some speculative deals, like the 4,810 LDT container Niigata Trader at USD 480/LT LDT, look stretched as fundamentals deteriorate. Ongoing U.S. tariffs and sanctions continue to cloud Q4 prospects. Pakistan Gadani brightened the regional picture. Several bulkers changed hands, including Rising Harrier at USD 445/LT LDT and Puteri Kirana at USD 390/LT LDT (“as is” Surabaya). Strong local steel prices and a PKR strengthening to 282.50 support momentum, even as HKC compliance work continues. Turkey Activity remained subdued. The lira slipped to TRY 41.58, and local steel prices edged lower, keeping sentiment soft. Beach Breakdown With freight rates mixed and steel prices uneven, regional ship-recycling markets show a clear disconnect between fundamentals and bidding.

Greece's shipping center remains active. In this Athens edition of Inside the Markets from GMS Podcasts, host Jamie speaks with Vagelis Chatzigiannis, Head of GMS Greece Office, about freight earnings and ship recycling. Freight markets gained 3.6% this week, even as the Baltic Dry Index showed panamax and supramax segments down about 2%-3%. Capesize vessels rose about 1% and tanker freight rates improved, especially on the crude side. These conditions are delaying recycling as owners extend trading for older ships. Key Discussion Points Freight versus recycling: why strong earnings are keeping vessels over 30 years in service India: active market with steel price swings and an INR near USD 88.66 Bangladesh: small LDT vessels, HKC paperwork, limited rolling mill demand and elections in 2026 Pakistan: highest plate prices near USD 619 per ton but slow HKC approvals and no new arrivals Turkey: weaker Lira at 41.41 per USD, lower import steel prices, EU yard slots extending to 2026 From Athens to the Indian subcontinent and Turkey, the signal is clear. Owners continue to earn from trading while recycling remains on hold until freight weakens.

Raglan's Xtreme Zero waste recyling centre is banning cast-offs from the China based fast fashion giant Shein. It says the poor quality and the sheer volumme Shein garments mean its a real challenge to sell them in their recycle retail store. Shein clothes tend to be made from synthetic fabrics, and testing has shown some contain harmful chemical like formaldehyde and are sold for extremely low prices. It's also alleged some Shein staff are working 75 hour weeks and getting just one day off a month. Jemma Hovelmeier from Xtreme Zero Waste in Raglan spoke to Lisa Owen.

In this Week 38 edition of the GMS Weekly Podcast, we cover the latest ship-recycling market trends, freight activity, steel prices, and key port updates from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Turkey. This week's theme: September Serene? Global Market Overview Freight activity stayed mixed as the Baltic Dry Index held steady: Capesize gained about 1 percent, while Panamax and Supramax fell nearly 2 percent and 3 percent. Oil prices moved only slightly higher, with WTI crude closing at USD 62.74 per barrel, still down 1.4 percent for the month and 10.8 percent year on year. Currency markets softened: Indian rupee firmed to INR 88.09, Pakistani rupee to PKR 283.44, Bangladeshi taka to BDT 121.74, while Turkish lira slipped to TRY 41.41. Steel plate prices were steady across major recycling hubs: India USD 448 per ton, Pakistan USD 619 per ton, Bangladesh USD 519 per ton. Bangladesh Activity remains sporadic. Recyclers focused on larger LDT and LNG units as smaller ships drew little interest. One fresh LDT tanker arrival broke the quiet. The taka eased to BDT 121.74 and steel plate prices held at USD 519 per ton. With February 2026 elections ahead and infrastructure demand weak, most recyclers stay cautious. India Alang stayed the busiest yard, recording about 84 K LDT of arrivals including several OFAC-listed or sanctioned units that other markets rejected. Prime Minister Modi's visit to Bhavnagar caused partial shutdowns, but demand held firm. The rupee strengthened to INR 88.09 and steel plate prices remained flat at USD 448 per ton. India continues to lead LNG recycling sales. Pakistan Gadani logged a third straight week of no arrivals. DASR certification and slow Hong Kong Convention yard upgrades continue to limit activity. Still, fundamentals are strong: PKR strengthened to 283.44 and steel plate prices remain near the industry high at USD 619 per ton. Progress on HKC compliance could allow a market rebound later this year. Turkey The market remained quiet. The lira weakened further to TRY 41.41, import steel prices fell for a second consecutive week, and recycling activity stayed minimal. Beach Breakdown Global freight markets steadied and steel prices were unchanged. India saw the most arrivals, Bangladesh stayed selective, Pakistan waited for yard approvals, and Turkey remained subdued.

Northern Europe's shipping heartbeat is pulsing with profit. In this Hamburg special of Inside the Markets from GMS Podcasts, host Jamie speaks with Henning Prinzen, Head of the GMS Hamburg Office, to examine how German shipowners are prioritizing trading income over ship recycling. Henning explains how high charter rates and steady freight earnings across bulkers, tankers and container feeders keep ships active while recycling yards wait. With the Baltic Dry Index up 7.4 percent, crude holding near USD 62.74 per barrel and strong time charter demand, owners are locking in long term charters, forward deliveries and sale and leaseback deals to capture today's cash flows. Key Discussion Points Trading vs. Recycling: why strong earnings mean no tankers or bulkers heading for recycling in the near term Market Numbers: steel plate prices at India USD 448 per ton, Pakistan USD 625, Bangladesh USD 519, with the Indian rupee in the high 88s per USD and the Pakistan rupee around 284 Owner Strategy: efficient maintenance, creative financing and forward deals to hedge revenue and extend vessel life Future Outlook: what would trigger a sudden shift from trading to recycling and how HKC approved yards in the Indian subcontinent or Turkey fit long term plans From Hamburg boardrooms to global yards, the message is consistent: earn now, recycle later until freight softens.   Follow GMS Podcasts for market intelligence and regional updates from our country heads in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.

Dr. Stephen Beaton is Co-founder and CEO of Circularity Fuels, which develops compact reactors that turn waste carbon streams into high-value fuels and chemicals. Rather than compete with fossil fuels from the start, Stephen identified high-purity methane for lab-grown diamonds as a beachhead market—where Circularity's product is 80–90% cheaper than incumbents while proving the core technology needed for clean liquid fuels.Stephen earned a chemistry PhD at Oxford and built deep expertise in synthetic fuels during his U.S. Air Force career, including overseeing jet fuel quality control in the Middle East and launching the Air Force's e-fuels program. His insight: build a fuels company that doesn't begin with fuel.Today, Circularity Fuels operates demonstration reactors in diamond facilities and is scaling toward biogas-to-SAF production using the same reactor platform. The company has raised $3M in venture funding, including from DCVC, plus $5M in grants from ARPA-E, NSF, and the California Energy Commission.

Things aren't quite as sunny on the environmental front as some recent guests suggest. According to the award winning science writer Peter Brannen, our planet is in an unprecedented crisis. We're burning 500 million years of the earth's history in a few decades, Brannen warns, so we should all quit pretending that our recycling will miraculously save the planet. That said, though, his latest book, The Story of CO2 is the Story of Everything, is the complex narrative of how carbon dioxide (CO2) both made and might unmake our world. So CO2 is simultaneously the good guy and the villain in our environmental story. Without carbon dioxide, Brannen warns, Earth would freeze into an uninhabitable ice ball. But too much creates a Venus-like greenhouse hell in which all life would be quickly extinguished. We hang in a delicate sweet spot that took nature millions of years to manufacture —and we humans are now disrupting this ecological balance at breakneck speed. The result is what Brannen calls a terrifying planetary experiment with no safety net. So stop pretending your recycling will save the earth, he warns. Fixing the planet will require more than a new Tesla and regular trips to Whole Foods. 1. CO2 is Earth's Essential Paradox Carbon dioxide both enables life and threatens to destroy it. Without CO2, Earth would freeze into an uninhabitable ice ball within decades. But too much creates a Venus-like greenhouse hell. We exist in an extremely narrow window that took millions of years to establish.2. We're Conducting an Unprecedented Planetary Experiment Humans are burning 500 million years of stored solar energy (fossil fuels) in just a few decades, releasing ancient CO2 at a rate 100 times faster than natural volcanic processes. This speed overwhelms Earth's natural ability to rebalance the system.3. Individual Consumer Actions Won't Save Us Recycling, driving electric cars, and other personal choices create demand for better technologies but won't solve a problem of this scale. The focus on consumer responsibility was actually a strategy pushed by fossil fuel companies to deflect from systemic change.4. Technology Offers Hope, But Carbon Removal is Fantasy Solar power costs have plummeted dramatically, offering genuine reasons for optimism. However, carbon capture and removal technologies are thermodynamically expensive and cannot scale to meaningful levels—they're "basically useless" if we don't first cut emissions to nearly zero.5. Democracy May Be Too Slow for Climate Action International climate treaties produce "mealy-mouthed press releases" while missing targets. Brannen suggests the most realistic path forward is that clean energy becomes so economically superior that countries adopt it regardless of political will, potentially leaving the U.S. behind if it doesn't adapt.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Terracycle is proving that almost anything can be recycled, from cigarette butts to ocean plastics, transforming how the world thinks about waste. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew Lewin speaks with Tom Szaky, the founder and CEO of TerraCycle, to explore how his company is creating global recycling programs that redefine sustainability and consumer responsibility. TerraCycle has become a leader in connecting corporations and individuals to solutions that keep waste out of landfills and oceans. This conversation dives into the economics of recycling, why certain materials are left behind, how microplastics can be repurposed, and what it takes to shift both corporate and consumer behavior. By the end, you'll see why recycling is not just about sorting bins but about reimagining the value of our waste.
