Show #324 – Pela Founder, Jeremy Lang On Composting Accessibility, Soil Health, Bioplastics And Recycling

LISTEN TO THIS WEEK’S SHOW ON iTUNES, STITCHER OR SPOTIFY OR LISTEN RIGHT HERE:

New music for the show, by LIOR.

We have a new tune for our show to welcome the new year! An old friend of mine from uni happens to be one of Australia’s finest artists, Lior, and as I love supporting local artists and it’s been brilliant having Melanie Horsnell’s music on the show the past couple of years, for 2023/24 it will be Lior. You will hear excerpts from his track “Caught Up”  – go check it out on iTunes or Spotify if you want to hear the whole song or album, Scattered Reflections. Co-written with Cameron Deyell, it’s a great song and I love the reflective energy of it – perfect for the show, right? Enjoy. Lior is always touring, so do check out his website. It is wonderful to hear him sing live, trust me.

And on this week’s show!

This week we are talking composting-for-all solutions, bioplastics soil health, and recycling, and how one business is aiming to make things better with all of those things and a passion for accessibility.
 
My guest, Jeremy Lang is the Founder of Pela. Pela is best known for their biodegradable phone cases and more recently, their countertop composter – Lomi. Pela makes everyday products without everyday waste to help educate and inspire a global community of people who are committed to making a positive impact on our planet. Pela is on a mission to eliminate 10 billion pounds of waste from the global waste stream and continues to research and develop the most innovative products to create a waste-free future. It’s always inspiring to have a conversation about how business can move us forward and always refreshing when a guest isn’t afraid to tackle the questions around design challenges, transparency, and end-of-life landfill challenges, even when a product ‘does good’ while working.
