When I met Ron in business school, he and Recycle Bank, which he co-founded, were well regarded. He's continued to grow since.
Beyond contributing into entrepreneurship in sustainability as an entrepreneur, he's helped create policy, appears often in the media, and now invests.
In our conversation you'll hear on the personal side his passion. On the business side you'll hear the opportunities to start businesses and solve problems are increasing -- from the sounds of it, dramatically.
He puts his money where his mouth is. If you came here for examples of leadership in the area of the environment, I'd say he sounds like a role model. He achieves business success. It emerges from transparency, which creates, as I hear it, trust, joy, and liberation where others might feel guilty.
Restricted on connection, so sorry for connection problems.
His success reminds me of Sandy Reisky's episodes.
