Before you throw that away...

Spend even a few minutes with Tom Szaky and he is bound to say, “The thing about garbage is ...”
That’s because TerraCycle, the company he co-founded in 2001 and has run since, is aiming to make billions by collecting used plastic bags, juice pouches, cookie wrappers and other items that cannot be recycled and fusing them into everyday items like tote bags, pencil cases and messenger bags to be sold at some of the country’s biggest retailers.

Be inspired by this young entrepreneur working towards a more productive and environmental-friendly economy.
