Podcast Quotes:
"Soil is such a such an important part of how we can work to fight the climate crisis, because soil can hold and maintain, can be a huge carbon sink that we're not utilizing." (8:32-8:48 | Billy)
"Recycling is something that should definitely happen, it is so important. But, it's not like that's your get out of jail free card. That is just the beginning." (11:55-12:09 | Billy)
"The circular economy, what it says is, okay, instead of us going out there and going and finding all the different resources that we need to create this product, how about instead, we use what we already used before, and bring it back and start using it again. So instead of all of that stuff going into the landfill, we take those resources and those parts and those pieces, and we find a way to bring them back and bring those two ends together to start making those products again using the same resources." (13:20-13:57 | Billy)
"We really need to consider what we can do to make it so that we don't even have that waste at the end that either gets recycled, or gets thrown away, or gets composted. How can we reduce what we initially buy, or initially produce, so we're not over producing and needing to throw away things, but making sure that we're using things as efficiently as possible?" (16:14-16:40 | Billy)
"There are companies out there that are working to circularize their production cycle and their supply chain. So being able to support them, the biggest way that any consumer and anyone can impact the way that companies are doing things is with their wallet." (23:27-23:48 | Billy)
