In today’s episode I’m chatting with Julia Marsh, the Co-founder and CEO of Sway – a California-based startup making regenerative packaging from seaweed, as an alternative to single-use thin film plastic. A few years ago, Julia and her partner Matt traveled all over the world to visit seaweed farms, explore regions most affected by plastic waste, and meet with biomaterial innovators across borders and backgrounds - with the vision of creating a truly regenerative future. They are now bringing...

We spoke about fashion’s impact on nature, material innovation, and the hope she finds in regenerative agriculture as a solution...

Most people know how to reduce their carbon footprints, but few know how to directly help protect nature and biodiversity in their everyday lives. Yet I believe what drove most of us to join the climate movement in the first place is witnessing the...
