Nuggets:

Pick a business that you can grit through
Sometimes grit is less intense and more zen. A reserved but committed approach can help you maintain energy on your project for the long haul.

Action Steps:

Create a simplified Process Flow Diagram (PFD) for how recycling is done today
Research values of each stream in the PFD
Target the points at which you can amplify the most value.
Incorporate some hard numbers in your research. Who pays for raw recyclable material, how much do they pay, and why?
Research companies that incorporate recycled materials in their products or packaging. Find out the price points they pay. How do they make it profitable?
Start a small local project where committed recyclers can contribute to special recycling containers and be tracked and get credit for their contributions.
Raise some funding on the merit of the idea to test feasibilities. “Do good” projects like this may attract funders who strive to make a difference and care less about short term profitability.
