Zeb Parsons is the Creator & Operator of Bricolage Dynamics, an innovative company focused on glass recycling solutions. In this episode, he walks us through Bricolage's process and how they are addressing the collection end of recycling and the 'reuse' function by turning the glass into sand.
Recycling is in need of innovation and renewed interest, as Zeb explains in the episode- much of what we think is getting recycled ends up in landfills because of contamination.
Zeb grew up in Pickens, South Carolina, his love for nature and seeing a landfill grow firsthand inspired him to explore out-of-the-box ideas when it comes to recycling. Join us in conversation as we talk recycling education, plastics, sand uses (I don't think about sand often, but it is a much-used commodity), and more.
