A new episode of the Love Zero Waste podcast is online! As relevant as ever.
As COVID-19 and other viruses taunt communities across the globe, entrepreneurs rise to create solutions to protect people but also the planet. A shocking forty per cent of the world’s population does not have access to basic handwashing possibilities, something that adds to the spread of diseases.
We’ve spoken to two entrepreneurs who are combining zero waste and frugal innovation, also known as inclusive innovation or grassroots innovation, to create accessible and affordable hygiene solutions.
Guests in this episode of Love Zero Waste are Adams Bamigbose, CEO and creative director of Above Ground Level Artistry and Shawn Seipler, CEO of Clean the World Foundation. Learn how Adams’s and Shawn’s initiatives are creating life-saving impact at the intersection of frugal innovation, zero waste and hygiene.
