Hosting some of the gang from the @SCOESonoma for our "Reimagine Waste" challenge was a great privilege. The next generation of changemakers inspires me, and I am so optimistic about the future because of these kids. The future looks bright y'all!

I enjoyed connecting with the Thomaston community during our open house. I also want to thank the Brightmark gang for their unrelenting work and dedication. Learn more about our Thomaston Circularity Center in my recent letter: brightmark.com/newsroom/creat… #ReimagineWaste

I couldn't be more excited and proud of the Brightmark gang for hitting our recent milestone of reducing over 900k tons of CO2 equivalencies through our projects that put waste to work. It's undoubtedly coming full circle, and we're just getting started. #ReimagineWaste

I believe a fundamental way to make positive environmental change at scale is through education. Learn about how Brightmark is working to change this with the @GuyHarveyOcean, @OceanFirstEdu, and Healdsburg Elementary: bit.ly/4biuHbS #CreateAWorldWithoutWaste

It was a pleasure to host a screening of the "Reinventing Recycling" documentary in our office for SF Climate Week. I want to thank the @apcoworldwide and @Brightmark gang for all their work putting together this event and the panelists. #SFClimateWeek #ReimagineWaste

I'm excited to bring circular innovations to Georgia. Our flagship Thomaston Circularity Center will turn 400,000 tons of plastic waste into new, circular products—diverting it from landfills, incinerators, and the environment. Learn more: bit.ly/3Jx3BSr #ReimagineWaste

As a frequent diver and fisherman, I care deeply about protecting water. This #WorldWaterDay, find ways to preserve and advocate for sustainable water management, and remember that water is the most valuable resource in the world—it's essential to protect it.

I am excited for all that is to come in 2024—it's coming full circle. See why by reading my recent letter here: bit.ly/48Pddmw #ReimagineWaste

I am delighted to see @RecycleForce move into its new home and expand its integral mission. The new facility has over 100k square feet of space to run its program—allowing it to handle and safely recycle double the amount of electronic waste. Learn more: bit.ly/3RWF0LU

I had a delightful lunch with the gang from Healdsburg Elementary—talking to them about my time at Georgia Tech and some of my reasoning for founding Brightmark. I joined this group for International Coastal Cleanup Day in September.

I had a wonderful time at the recent @CoalitionForRNG —meeting with policymakers to discuss the critical value renewable natural gas projects offer as an alternative energy solution. Thank you to Michigan State Representative Joey Andrews for the time.

Giving back is a fantastic way to brighten the holidays. At Brightmark, we enjoy supporting various organizations, including the @SFMFoodBank. I encourage you to consider SF Marin Food Bank as you look for ways to give back this holiday. Learn more here: bit.ly/3uZtd6w
