Competition. Tom and Jon had decided to give up on the worm project and sell their worm gin, the proceeds from which would help them pay back some of the loans they had received from friends and family. They would then have to get summer jobs as investment bankers – a gruesome thought – to pay off the rest of their debts. As closure seemed all but certain, unexpected events offered new opportunities. Still, many more difficult decisions lay ahead on a path that remained uncertain and lacked glamour and financial profit. Copyright © 2012 by IMD, Lausanne, Switzerland (www.imd.org).

It felt like the interview would be the ceremonial burial of the TerraCycle idea before going back to school in a month’s time. They told their story on the program and left the station with a recording of it in hand. When Tom arrived back at Princeton, he almost deleted an email waiting for him because it looked like spam. It said, “I WANT TO INVEST. CALL ME.”1 Suman Sinha, the sender, had heard their story on the local radio station that morning and wanted to see them. That night, Tom and Jon had dinner with Suman and left the restaurant with a check for $2,000. The money gave them the time they needed to regroup. Priority one was to find a place to stay – either an apartment or an office. They ended up renting a cheap basement space that had one central room and two small offices that would function as bedrooms. Showers would be taken at the gym. As for furnishings, it was all somebody else’s garbage. Tom and Jon had gone “dumpster2 diving” for chairs, desks and computers. It was all student waste that they had found in the trash on move-out day. Survival Mode Tom and Jon had fulfilled their promise to Princeton to dispose of the organic waste from the dining hall. But with summer coming to an end and school starting, they did not have time to continue production. Though they were still in business, they had to shut down the worm gin, box up the worms and store them in their office. After their summer experience, they realized that they would have to process several hundred tons of waste in order to turn a profit. This would require dozens of employees and worm gins, as well as millions of worms. And though worm poop was excellent fertilizer, to which everyone who tried it could attest, selling it had not gone to plan. Tom and Jon were ecstatic about the $2,000 investment, but it soon became clear it was not going to last. They needed more money, quickly. They started looking for ways to bring in money or get resources cheaply. One day they got the idea of presenting a hairdresser friend from Los Angeles as a celebrity stylist to the Princeton community. They were able to fully book him for a weekend, so it turned out to be a very lucrative weekend for TerraCycle, which meant that it paid the rent. Inspired by the idea, Tom and Jon started to host art parties on most weekends during semester. One of the regulars at the parties, a senior named Hilary Burt liked TerraCycle so much that she convinced her father to invest $6,000 in the company. The parties also attracted the attention of a lot of Princeton students who offered to volunteer at TerraCycle. As a result, TerraCycle managed to keep its nose just above water. With school back in session, Jon was spending more time on his studies. Tom, however, could not stop thinking about how to build TerraCycle and make a difference to the environment in the process. So, early that fall, Tom asked a Canadian friend, Robin Tator, to 1 Szaky, Tom. Revolution in a Bottle: How TerraCycle is Redefining Green Business. New York: Portfolio, Penguin Group, 2009, p. 26. 2 A dumpster is a large industrial trash container, sometimes called a skip outside the United States. - 3 - IMD-3-2263 I N T E R N A T I O N A L join the company. Robin had given Tom his first job some ten years earlier. Robin already had a couple of ventures of his own, but one of them was a seasonal ice cream business, so he thought he could find time to help Tom. He agreed to spend one week per month at TerraCycle in exchange for a share of the company. Redefining the Business Tom and Jon’s biggest challenge was figuring out what business they were in. So far no one outside the university was willing to pay them to haul organic waste away. Tom and Jon always thought they would sell the worm poop as fertilizer but they were quickly realizing that selling the fertilizer was a necessity rather than just a nice additional source of revenue. They decided to abandon the idea of being a waste-management company for the time being and focus on selling the vast amount of worm poop fertilizer they had accumulated. So off they went in jeans and t-shirts, trying to sell worm poop in plastic bags with a black and white label that said “Pure Worm Poop.” As a cutting edge environmental company, fancy packaging and lots of flash just didn’t seem like their style. Yet their sales success was not forthcoming. For the most part, potential customers, if they even got a chance to talk to them, simply laughed in their faces. Others suggested they change the packaging, arguing that it didn’t look professional. Eventually, Robin, whose background was in marketing, came up with the idea of bottling the fertilizer in spray bottles. They all agreed that spray bottles would be more appealing to potential customers. Liquid fertilizers also had a number of advantages over solid ones. Liquefying the solids would make them last longer, spraying the fertilizer directly onto the leaves would reduce the chance of diseased foliage and increase the nutrients the plant absorbs. Transforming the solid worm poop into a liquid would be relatively straightforward and would not require complex or expensive machinery. They decided to put the liquefied worm poop – or tea as they called it – in a spray bottle with a label they had designed themselves with a new name: TerraCycle Plant Food. Now, they had a product to sell. Gaining Traction By the fall of 2002, Tom found himself drowning in the day-to-day dilemmas of TerraCycle. He was spending more time figuring out where next month’s rent was coming from than he was on his studies at Princeton. So he made a decision. As the semester drew to a close, Tom decided to take a leave of absence from Princeton. Around the same time, Priscilla Hayes, who was responsible for solid-waste management in the county, introduced TerraCycle to the EcoComplex at Rutgers University. The Rutgers EcoComplex had a mission to “research and educate people about environmentally sound business practices” – TerraCycle was a perfect fit. The company became the EcoComplex’s first and only occupant when it set up its worm gin in the incubator. Over the winter, Tom kept the company afloat by entering and winning several business contests including reentering the Princeton competition and walking off with first prize. Tom also recruited Bill Gillum, a highly experienced chemist with a PhD from MIT who was looking for a new challenge. Bill joined TerraCycle’s stable, which consisted of mostly Princeton interns at the time, as Director of Operations, and spent his first six months shoveling poop.

  • Bic and Terracycle Are Launching the First
    BIC AND TERRACYCLE ARE LAUNCHING THE FIRST PROGRAM FOR COLLECTING AND RECYCLING WRITING INSTRUMENTS IN FRANCE This civic gesture also allows money to be raised for non-profits or schools Paris, March 9th, 2011 – BIC, the world leader in ballpoint pens, is associating itself with TerraCycle, a pioneering upcycling and recycling company, to organize the voluntary collection of writing instruments in the very places where they are used (schools, companies, universities…) in order that they be recycled. Sponsored by BIC, this program enables all writing instruments, regardless of whether or not they are BIC® branded, to be recycled into new useful products such as pen holders, wastepaper baskets and watering cans. In return for this civic gesture, 2 Euro cents per writing instrument collected will be donated to a charity or not for profit chosen by the organization responsible for the collection or, in the case of schools, the money will be donated directly to the school in order to finance a future educational project. Getting involved with the BIC® and TerraCycle® collection and recycling program is simple: a volunteer from each school, university, or company that is interested in launching a campaign should register for free on the website: www.terracycle.fr from which the volunteer will be able to download material for the launch (posters, flyers, prepaid shipping labels…). Then the collection of used writing instruments can begin! The collection is then sent for free to TerraCycle’s warehouse in near Lille, France where the writing instruments are processed to be made into new products. Talking about the partnership, Marie Saglio, General Manager of BIC France stated: “Our writing instruments are known across the world for using a minimum amount of material while still offering high quality with a long writing length (the BIC® Cristal® ballpoint pen weighs only 5.8 grams and writes for at least 2 km).

  • 2.2.9. Procter & Gamble
    1 Dirty recyclables of a Procter & Gamble brand Credit: Les Stone P&G has made no commitments regarding collection, and neither calls for legislation in this area nor mentions support for DRS. It high- lights different targets on its US environmental sustainability webpage6 than on its UK equivalent.7 At the time of writing, there was no reference to the development of reuse-and-refill delivery models for P&G products on their UK site;8 on its US site, however, the company highlights its 2019 participation in test programmes with TerraCycle’s Loop project in New York and Paris,9 in which its brands Pantene, Gillette and Venus were included.10 When it comes to reduction of virgin-plastic use, P&G states alternative materials will only be used ‘when it makes sense’, and that lightweighting, increasing recycled content and moving towards more concentrated products will take priority.11 However, this does not appear to involve an absolute reduction in the total number of single-use plastic-packaging units. It is also unclear what instances the company will consider using alternative materials in, and which types of materials. In another document on the company’s brand criteria for 2030, it states it will achieve ‘a meaningful increase in responsibly-sourced bio-based, or recycled or more resource efficient materi- als’;12 however, this commitment is nebulous because it does not include an actual target, timeframe or more detail on what ‘responsi- bly-sourced’ means. When it comes to minimum recycled content, P&G talks about ‘continuously innovating with recycled plastic’,13 and, according to As You Sow, has a recycled-content target of 8% for 2025.14 This is a very modest increase – from 6.3% in 2018.

  • Incentives for Plastic Recycling: How to Engage Citizens in Active Collection
    recycling Article Incentives for Plastic Recycling: How to Engage Citizens in Active Collection. Empirical Evidence from Spain Denisa Gibovic and Andrea Bikfalvi * Campus de Montilivi, Department of Business Administration and Product Design, University of Girona, 17071 Girona, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-659-997-640 Abstract: The recycling target for plastics is expected to increase Europe-wide from 22.5% to 55% by 2025, hence the relevance of incentive schemes and the need to reach conclusions about how to encourage families to recycle more. Following this objective, a pilot project was implemented and a virtual reward token called RECICLOS created to encourage recycling among families, using incentives and awards to improve recycling behaviour and a webapp prototype to register the recycled plastic. By the end of the 6-week pilot project, 1053 families were registered on the scheme, representing 10% of the targeted population in the pilot area of the county of Pla de l’Estany, Catalonia, Spain. The novelties were the introduction of a token, the gamification of incentives through raffles and lotteries, webapp-based direct communication with citizens, and feedback after collecting and registering the recycled material. The multidimensional aspects of recycling activities, their strong relation with human behavioural patterns, and the high demand for communication and interaction mean that mobile technologies find significant application in this field. The results show that people can be influenced and their recycling habits changed by means of varied, effective, and innovative incentive schemes. Citation: Gibovic, D.; Bikfalvi, A.

    This report has been compiled by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, with input from the UN Environment Programme in relation to the government signatories. The Global Commitment Progress 2020 Report 2020 2019 Ellen MacArthur Foundation | The Global Commitment 2020 Progress Report 2 Foreword The way we use plastic contributes to the three planetary crises of climate change, nature loss, and pollution. Our system of take-make-waste generates greenhouse gas emissions throughout the plastic lifecycle and sees millions of tonnes of waste enter the ocean each year. Plastic pollution is clearly a threat to planetary and human health. But it is one that we are beginning to address. United by the goal of tackling plastic pollution at its source, more than 500 businesses, governments, and other organisations have come together behind a common vision of a circular economy for plastics, in which it never becomes waste. As signatories of the New Plastics Economy Global Commitment, these organisations have set ambitious 2025 targets to help realise that vision. This second annual progress report looks at how signatories, which together account for more than 20% of the plastic packaging market, are faring against the targets. Through the baseline established in last year’s report, now it is possible for the first time to quantify the evolution of progress. The report shows progress between 2018 and 2019. For example, recycled content in packaging grew 22% year-on-year and the number of reduction targets more than doubled, amounting to a reduction in the annual consumption of virgin plastics of at least 1.1 million tonnes by 2025.
