70. What Happens After We Recycle? with Amanda Close

70. What Happens After We Recycle? with Amanda Close

In episode 70 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we are talking about recycling! I’ve had a few guests on the show that have shed some light on recycling, but not quite to this depth yet. Today’s guest, Amanda Close, is an expert in all things waste streams and is here to answer the question: what happens after we recycle?

Amanda Close is the Education and Outreach Manager at Waste Loop and works with local communities, schools, and businesses to reduce, reuse, repair, repurpose, recycle and, most importantly, rethink their waste streams. Waste Loop is a 501(3)(c) nonprofit based in the Wenatchee Valley of Central Washington with a mission to inspire communities to transform their 'waste' into resources. They envision a world where the concept of 'waste' no longer exists.
